@SnapBlastPLAY You forgot -
✅️ screwed over loyal fans by allowing scalpers to pre-order most of the 25th anniversary units and then resell them at triple the cost on ebay.
@asha_shar Xbox and Asha have earned goodwill by listening to fans, so now’s the time to prove it. Cancel obvious bot/multiple-unit orders, return that stock to real fans, and use verified member purchase codes for the remaining units. This can still be made right.
@asha_shar Xbox absolutely fumbled these pre-orders. What happened to “giving back to the fans”? Letting bots grab multiple units while loyal gamers fight over scraps in seconds is insulting. That’s not rewarding fans—it’s rewarding scalpers.
@asha_shar The fix is simple: give eligible Xbox members unique purchase codes and a limited preorder window. One code, one console. When the window closes, move to the next group. Put actual fans first—not bots and scalpers.

@asha_shar Xbox had to know this would happen. Limited-edition hardware with weak purchase limits and bot protection was always going to favor scalpers. If this was meant to celebrate 25 years of Xbox, shutting out the fans who helped build it is a terrible way to do it.

A simple fix:reward actual Xbox members.Set reasonable eligibility criteria,send qualified members a unique purchase code,and give them a limited preorder window.Once that window expires,move to the next eligible group. One code,one console. Fans get priority.
@XBOX
And the worst part? This was predictable.Limit ededition hardware + no meaningful purchase limits or bot protection = scalpers feast while fans lose.If the goal was to celebrate 25 years of Xbox,alienating the people who helped get you there is one hell of a way to do it.
@XBOX
You guys absolutely fumbled these pre-orders. What happened to “giving back to the fans” Allowing bot accounts to hoard multiple units while loyal gamers are left fighting over scraps in a matter of seconds is insulting. That’s not rewarding fans, it’s rewarding scalpers.
