Where is the best store to buy an Xbox 360?

I would like to purchase an Xbox 360, an Elite if possible, and I'm wondering where the best place to buy it is. I really hate Best Buy and would like to have nothing to do with that place. Does anyone know how it is to purchase an Elite at Gamestop, EB Games, Circuit City, Walmart, etc.? Would any of these places have an Elite in stock? Which is better: the official Microsoft warranty or the Gamestop/Best Buy/etc. warranty? I've heard a lot and done some research, but can someone please list for me all the warranties available by Microsoft and what they cost? Thanks so much for this, it will really save me a lot of time and hassle.

Thanks.

i bought a elite at walmart on the 29th. they didnt have a weerenty at the time. they then told me i have 90 days to bring it back if something went wrong with it.i kept it for about a week then took it back coz it was luder then my cousins 360 he got for xmas. they gave me no problems at all when i took it back

they i buy a 360 premium at walmart it was luuder then my elite was and got hotter i kept it for a almost a month they took it back no questions asked..

i buy a ds lite at gamestop for my gf. she didnt like it i try to take it back 4 hours after i buy it. and he he could only give me 30 bucks store credit for a brand new 5 hour old ds lite!!! ..just because that little 5 cent sticker thing wasnt perfect. i told the guy if he got it out he wouldnt be able to tell it was opened. he said im sorry but the sticker is opened.

I got mine at Walmart and they have been getting about 4 a week.

Costco would be the BEST place to buy it if you can find an Elite in stock at a Costco. They have a lifetime guarentee on all their products - so if it breaks down ever you can just take it back to them and get another one.

um whats costca is it like walmart or is it a online only store?

Costco is a warehouse super club - so you have to buy a membership for about $35 a year - but in a situation like this it's well worth it.

There is a Costco.com - go check them out for details. There should be one locally for you as well though - somewhere. From their web page you can search for one in your area.

And yup it's a lifetime guarentee on everything - I know a guy who returned his television for a full refund 8 years affter he bought it and got a new HDTV from them.
