Do they get you to boot up the console and try a game? My Xbox works fine but only have a 3rd party controller

Maybe try it by leaving the new controller with the new Xbox with them?

just went into galway there it's sold out but will be back in Friday, I paid a deposit of 5e, took size of t shirt I wanted etc.

How much do they test it? Was checking mine last night and the controller left stick kind of presses up for no reason at times ( not used it in ages as have the elite) tried some contact cleaner to no avail so swaped sticks in settings, think they'll notice it?

They turn it on and make sure a game loads, you should be fine.

Just a few notes I found with Tallaght Gamestop.

1. Any scratches at all and they won't take it.
2. They won't take faulty controllers in any way
3. They won't let you reserve (Checked at 9am)
4. They now have none left (10:30am) and will not be getting any more in for this promotion.
5. Has to be EU power brick.

Seems different stores have different rules.

No more xboxes or the fifa game?

Flashdan · 27-09-2017 11:37AM

No more Xboxes.

The_B_Man · 27-09-2017 11:42AM

There's a similar PS4 deal as well. It was on their facebook last night.

My controller had it really bad. They took it no problems.

Lovelyguy · 27-09-2017 11:54AM

Got the deal in Dundrum. Only had a small number of Minecraft consoles left. Unbelievably good deal, possibly the best I've ever seen.

Blanchy90 · 27-09-2017 11:56AM

I got mine in omni in santry yesterday, they had no problem holding a console for me until today but i got in before they closed last night

lankz92 · 27-09-2017 11:59AM

Worth a shot so. Its fine at times but on first boot up its very bad for a few mins. I'll leave the sticks swaped and hope they use the d-pad lol.

machalla · 27-09-2017 12:28PM

I got mine in Liffey street this morning. They sound like they have a lot of stock available. Also Henry street.

One word of warning is that Henry streets TV is not working so they can't test the xbox at the moment. You are likely to be sent over to Liffey steet.

Cheers to the OP, I wouldn't have known about this otherwise.

Tried to trade mine in (won't say where for now...) and it mysteriously "wouldn't give a video output". Apparently it was tested with another HDMI cable and on another tv.

I get home and try it.......it works perfectly :mad:

Trying another location tomorrow where hopefully the trade in goes through and I shall ring the first place and let him know (politely...)

Got this deal today in Ballincollig - no problems at all, the Xbox flew through the tests...

Thanks OP

yes, €40 cash of €50 store credit.

Just picked 1 up in Dundalk. Xbox One S "Deep Blue Special Edition", came with fifa 17 & 18
Had to pay any extra €40 as both my controller were faulty.
Still a great deal, dont play fifa so will sell both.
Fifa 18 is €90, they are offering €55 store credit for it.

How faulty was your controller? Its dundalk im headed to aswell

I'll likely pass on it if my controller fails.

IvoryTower · 27-09-2017 01:28PM

Drogheda have 2 Ronaldo editions left, they give 44 cash for it. More stock of normal edition coming friday

ccoll · 27-09-2017 01:37PM

Analog stick ghosting up, they let you keep the faulty controller. If you trade fifa back for cash then you are out nothing extra.

You'll be lucky to get €10 for FIFA 17. That's a nice colour on the console though.

Shame, mines at the same. I'll chance my arm anyway. Might be someones else checking it haha.

ccoll · 27-09-2017 02:06PM

€10 for 17
€60 or 70 for 18

Still cheaper than the price of a new controller, which I needed anyway.

@lankz92 Give it a go, wait until there are a few people in the shop, they might not gave it a full test.
Jordan tested mine.

Anyone know if Santry/Omni doing this?

Tried calling but no answer.

Nationwide, just depends on stock now... best bet would be to arrive in with the stuff you need and see how you get on. I didn't format mine, they did it for me. I still changed my passwords when I got home anyway.

If you just trade it straight away they will knock the €50 off the price and you just pay 20 euro for the jersey and console.
