Here it is ladies and gentlemen, the cardboard coffin. This one is different from the boxes that I have received in my past dealings with customer support. Unlike the others, this box has an area designated for the 360's power supply. I have had the same power supply since day one. I guess they wanted to have a look at it as well.

Something else that has changed is the package's courier. In the past I've only dealt with UPS. This time around, it's FedEx. I had to drive from my home here in Michigan into Indiana, to find the nearest FedEx/Kinkos.

I neglected to write anything clever to accompany the reference number. Reetesh, I really did like your idea.

GameSpot Billing

Under Prefs/Accounts you can find a link titled Change "Credit Card & Billing Info". However, nothing about providing GameSpot with accurate billing information and then clicking on "Save Changes" , seems to indicate that in doing so you are interring into an agreement with GameSpot or purchasing something. As a consumer, I wish that GameSpot was providing me with more information.
