Circuit City?s PR managers have responded to our request for clarification on the confusing language on the Circuit City website. Here?s the real deal:
Circuit City will begin selling a limited supply of Xbox 360 bundles on www.circuitcity.com beginning 2 p.m. Friday, Nov. 18, 2005. These units will ship on 11/21/2005; customers who opt to pay extra for next-day delivery can do so to get their Xbox in their homes on 11/22/2005.
We are not selling them earlier in our stores; I apologize for the misinformation you received from the call center. We will have Xbox 360 units for sale in all Circuit City stores nationwide beginning 10 a.m. local time on 11/22/2005. They are first-come, first-served as we did not allow any preorders.

Would have been nice, but wouldn't make sense for CC to break the release date and face the wrath of MS.

For guys like you, I hope that MS ships way more systems than anticipated so that there is almost no demand on ebay...
