Has anyone seen anywhere you can order a xbox360 not bundled in the US. This is killing me. I want a xbox 360 but i dont want to pay $799 for one.

well my problem is that i am in Korea right now. I dont think the base I am at will get them at all for a while so I am looking for a place that will ship it to me once they get it.

To get you to buy the games and accessories while you are in the store. I've already received calls from EBGames about coming in and preordering games from them for my 360 preorders.

well the US seems to be the only place you cant order the core system online. Everywhere else you can order just the 299 or the 399 console alone. Of course ppl are going to buy games with it but Im not going to buy 4 or 5 at once. Its just rediculous.

Right, but they're not shipping them to you. Plus, the bundle is just easier because it guarantees you'll buy accessories with it.
