Good of Microsoft to finally have enough supply to meet demand. Lots of kids will be happy this Christmas morning.



It says pick up in store not available and delivery by 24th of December. That means it's sold out?...



I love all the people trying to talk crap about how is not selling out. Let's see, the OP posted 7 hours ago. I live in New York. It is 8:27 a.m. That means they went on sale at around 1:00 a.m. my time. You expect people to be up at those hours? Perhaps most of the posters here have no jobs and can stay up all night. Most of the mainstream people like myself were sleeping.

8+ hours later they are still available.

OK. The original post was done in kindness to let people who want an Xbox One know that they are available.

And for some reason, you guys turn this into a debate about demand for the product. Why? What is wrong with you? Who cares? Of what benefit is it to you if people do or don't want an Xbox One? How does this improve your quality of life?

People did say thanks to him but also that they were rather easy to get in a number of stores around the place. Would be like if I informed you there was sugar for sale in the supermarket next to me, it's there, what I said isn't untrue but then he went one further to say "you better hurry" why... I could suggest you should hurry out to buy the sugar too, but if you dont hurry it will still be there in 2-4-7-etc hours time or if it isn't there like others said you can walk into many game stores and just buy them still, Microsoft did a great job of creating a supply to meet their demands.

Its by no means a bad thing that Microsoft done, they set out to deliever in 13 locations, their key areas of sale where they wanna please everyone there before the markets which mean less to them, while I think Sony guarenteed their stuff would sell out by spreading it so thin... they've left a lot of desire for more systems before christmas and it's gonna lead to some upset pressie opening on the 25th imo.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

It took my store 4 days to sell 30 XBO's and 1 day to sell 80 PS4's. Needless to say theres no rush to get an Xbox One.

It is funny how all these people on forums say "my store sold X amount of consoles in this many days" and use that as their proof for something. Most of GAF and people on here seem to all know how fast these retailers are selling their stock and know exactly how much they get.

It is amazing how everyone has the inside information across the country.

a lot of people on these sites work retail for gamestop, bestbuy, target and tend to know what their store did.   also, in my experience, if you just ask and employee for that information they will tell you.  i ask my target guy all the time about specific systems/games.  annecedotal and limited evidence but doesn't mean the information is wrong.



10 hours later still in stock lol xD



Haha, I thought Microsoft said they were already SOLD :P
