I'm getting an XB1 tomorrow, but I think maybe it would be cheaper to import one from the US than to buy one in India. How much does shipping cost from Amazon US to India?


Use Amazon shipping. It is very cheap. Could ship the console to Saudi Arabia for less than $40. But you have around two week to get it.

If I can save $220 according to what you said I'll surely be willing to wait for two weeks.

Wow, since the last update I went from tied with Mo for first place in the total ranking to 13th place. Halo:MCC totally screwed me over, it failed to meet both my sales and review expectations : (

Yeah I remember in one of my earlier threads you predicted Halo: MCC to sell over 5 million this year

It is going to be nearly same costs are high for importing. The difference is going to be Rs1000-2000 in favour of import however I recommend getting from Amazon India since you will be getting repair in case your console encounters some probelms.

The price difference I stated above is for normal price of Xbox One $399, if you grab a deal online form us store you might bet a better discount somewhere near 4000-5000

A discount of Rs 4000 is pretty huge, but you're right about the support and after sales services. Maybe I should order from Amazon.in after all.

Man, why can't MS have the deals in India as they do in UK and USA? We need it more.

Finally bought Xone with KI & Horizon 2. End of the year will be fun :)

Congrats.

We were right about twisted pixel then, they are working on something bigger. Can't wait to see it.

XboxOne got more than enough indies. Lots of good looking ones, that don't feel that cheap.

Yeah, it's doing pretty good on the indie front, could be better though. If I could pick 5 indies that currently aren't on Xbox One (or are announced for release on Xbox One in the future) though I'd choose SOMA, Firewatch, No Man's Sky, Broken Age, and Bear Simulator. 

Hmm like what? Personally I don't see many great indies on the Xone that are released now... 

I wished they release that micro machine kind of X360 XBLA game on Xone.

Well, they are having amazing sale right now, few of the latest itles have been reduced to rs2999 compared to rs 4299 it includes Halo Mcc and forza h2. regular bundle ithout kinect is trading at 37,000 which is a discount of 2000, during diwali season they had discount also nealy 5000-7000. They were even offering get one free game with purchase of console. While the deals are good but they are not on par with Us & Uk. Microsoft needs to treat everybody equal but they cant because sales in different regions differ but more love from ms for Xbox in India is what we want
