Did anyone from the UK manage to get one of the consoles? Anyone try to get one and not manage? There still seems to be so many listings from scalpers on eBay, I wonder how many fans actually managed to get one.
What about the Limited Edition Elite controller?
Oof, I doubt a single person who wants it will be able to get it. Looks sweet with the blue top instead of green.
Got the controller the moment it was announced without issue.
I don’t care for the custom console as I already have a Series X.
The Halo Series X seems to be getting restocked almost every week at this point, people following restock alert pages and accounts can probably get one fairly easily if they’re paying attention.
I’ve had multiple opportunities to buy them but I just pass on it.
Not from the UK but I got both in the first wave of releases here in the US.
Not bragging or boasting, simply answering the question.

I managed to get one of the consoles from game, and I believe they had them in stock even 2 days after the announcement. so I don’t think scalpers bought many from game since they were only 1 per address, name and was delivery only. so scalpers who only have one address couldnt buy more than one.
Has anyone on Continental Europe been able to preorder one of these ? Aside from all the big stores where its being sold (Walmart, Target, BestBuy and GAME) that do not ship to Europe, in the few stores that do sell them here on the continent, I haven’t been able to get one at all. Only retailers we have that we can buy from are Microsoft.com, Ebay, and Amazon. Neither of which are selling some atm (aside from ebay but these are amounting up to nearly 1500 euros without shipping which is ridiculous that these people can get away with this). Really wish we didn’t always have to miss out on these things so consistently because of living in Western Europe 
If anyone has any ideas or solutions to get around this please be sure to let me know !
Cheers.
I got on the first set of pre-ordered from the Microsoft store. I’m UK based too.

here in Portugal, is the same situation, no consoles on retailers… not even show in websites.
I’m in the UK and was lucky enough to get both the limited edition Elite 2 and the limited edition Series X.
I was watching the stream live and went straight to the MS store as soon as they were revealed.
My girlfriend also managed to order the limited edition Series X on the same day so our household managed to get 2 x consoles and the controller.
I plan to keep one of the consoles boxed though.
After seeing the SP Campaign today I am glad I didn’t get it.

Yeah I live France and there is just no way to get the console anywhere.

If only I lived there to be able to get it :,)
Wished I knew people who live there so that I can pay them to send it to me.
i bet alot of scalpers do
Raises hand I think I’ve managed to secure at least 1 halo series x (I Hope).
It’ll be a nice upgrade from the XBOne, though, I’m having doubts about Infinite’s campaign if it’s another season based, destiny styled story. Why can’t game designers just finish and release a game this day and age!?
Edit Oh and I’m UK based also 
I actually manage to get my hands in a pre-order from my local ebgames/gamestop in Ontario canada
Nope, it’s simply not possible.

^ same - managed to get them both a few minutes after the announcement went live
Canadian here, managed to snag one. We kind of got lucky that they staggered the release from the American one and didn’t announce when they were going live, just happened to see it on twitter (You can follow accounts that update you the moment they come out). I know a few people that actually got one before the scalpers swooped in because no one knew when they were going live. I’ve heard they’re going to release another wave early November so I’d recommend finding a place that updates you the moment it drops.
Managed to bag a limited edition console but unfortunately could not bag the elite v2 controller
