Return of the $149.99 Xbox 360 Premium

An Xbox 360 Premium for $150? You read right.

(Credit: TigerDirect)

The last time I posted a $149.99 Xbox 360 Premium, it was chock full of gotchas: no headset, pricey shipping, iffy vendor, etc. Well, here's a mostly gotcha-free alternative: TigerDirect has refurbished Xbox 360 Premium systems for $149.99, plus a Web-special $1.99 for shipping.

Because it's a refurb, the warranty expires after 90 days. Also, this is the non-HDMI version of the 360, but look at the bright side: no HDMI cable to buy. (It comes with component-video cables, natch.)

Act fast: I guarantee you these will sell out. That's all I've got; I dislocated a finger playing basketball this morning and it hurts like hell to type. See you Monday!
