I stocked on 4, 4000points cards for all the XBLA and DLC awesomeness coming our way soon. Good deals. I got my codes within 10mins of ordered and redeemed 2 already (Marketplace has a 8000points per day limit ) Get em before they're gone.

Website down. LOL.


eBay sellers occasionally have classified ads that have 4000/12+1 month go for 28-30USD, so it's not really a spectacular coinsurance, but well appreciated nonetheless.

Is that only through codes because I have definitely done 10000 points before in a single sitting?

Not sure, 10k might be the limit? but trying 3 activate the 3rd 4,000pts card, Live marketplace told me that I'd exceeded my daily quota.

Someone posted the deal on slickdeal, thus the site is now being hammered...

You should start mailing your MP about annexing the US.

I'm curious... are LIVE Gold codes really region locked?


Because I just bought one code from an eBay buyer which said the same thing (USA only), gave it to a friend in AUS, and he took it in fine.

Was it a point card? Because I know that Gold cards work worldwide.

live subs are ok (3 yrs max btw). The points are not.

Just asked another friend in Aus to try another 12+1 today, no workey.


A Malaysian forumer said that after the recent maintenance even Gold is region locked, but there are really no concrete reports on what's what.

Being the 51st state, you'd think it wouldn't be an issue

Dang it. Well, there goes your Christmas present.
