Yeah these monkeys have no idea what they are talking about. This came from the reload e-mail they sent me last week.

Well I liked the xbox 360 so I ordered one of those.. Guess its a core version, but still when it is for free then it is nice.

I just e-mailed them asking if it was the core or premium version and they said premium which makes this an awesome deal cause it's worth $300-400 on ebay. Here's the e-mail:

Thank you for contacting PartyPoker.

I would like to inform you that the Xbox 360 as offered in our PartyStore comes with the following specifications;

Xbox 360 console

20GB detachable hard drive
Wireless controller
Wireless Xbox Live headset
High-definition AV cables
Ethernet cable
Detachable faceplate
Xbox Live Silver membership

I hope this has answered your question.

If you require further assistance please do not hesitate to contact the merchandise team by email at [email protected].

Kind regards,
Johannes
Merchandise team

So in summary Party don't know what they're doing and neither do we, is that right?

Why on earth would they shut down the store now, when they should be doing everything they can to drum up new business and keep hold of what they have left after their ridiculous decision to quit the US market.

So should we spend the points asap or wait for some point to cash redemtion options?

[danzasmack]

[sarcasm] I call bs, party wouldn't do something like this without not telling us first [/sarcasm]

[Balut]

If Party are allowing players to cash in our points... I say thats a good thing!
The exchange rate would be an absolute joke but it would better than the poor excuse of a merchandise store they have now!

Tip: Never buy clothes online.

When I looked they were 70,000 points. A hip flask was 10,000. How much is a hip flask?
