Canada Selling Refurbished Zunes On Boxing Day

First off, I'd like to wish everyone of our readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and in hope that the Zune news will continue to flow and that you all will continue to use Cliczune as your go-to site. Now onto the days happenings....

While looking through plenty of Boxing-Day flyers (For those who are not aware, Boxing Day is Canada's shopping day after Christmas, kinda like U.S. Black Friday after Thanksgiving) and getting ready to spend, spend, and well, spend money on Wednesday, I saw something that really blew my mind and cught my attention so much, that I just had to post it. One of Canada's leading bargain/refurbished stores from coast-to-coast, XS Cargo, is apparently getting ready to sell many refurbished 30GB Zunes on Boxing Day. I first noticed it when I seen it in their Boxing Week flyer, on Christmas Eve morning, and then later on in the day, noticed it on their website available in White(In-Store only) and in Black colors. They come complete with everything found in the original Zune 30 box, with everything brand new and the Zune refurbished. XS Cargo are retailing the Zunes for $129.99CDN, which is a tad high priced comparing to some American stores, but it still works. So is this just a typo, or miss-hap, like the TigerDirect incident? Or did XS Cargo really buy some stocks of refurbished Zunes for Boxing Day, and is this another sign Zune is making its slow and steady debut in Canada?

Take a look at the site HERE to read more on these Zunes, or if your in Canada, grab your local newspaper and get the XS Cargo flyer and see it in there.

Merry Christmas to All

Sincerely,

Cliczune Staff

It's a real price....I picked up a black 30 about a month ago at xscargo in Hamilton at that price and have gave my 4 gb nano to my son.

We bought two of these at our local xscargo a couple of weeks ago. It's the real deal!

I bought mine at Factory Direct for $129.00 for a christmas gift...the box was perfect...no plain boxed stuff...the only prob I have is that the zune player itself was marked "refurbished" but I like the sound better and wish there were more accessories available here in Canada...everything is so IPod-centric and when I ask at Futureshop or BestBuy about compatibility, they give me blank stares...

With regards to the Zune being marked as "Refurbished", mine was just a sticker that I peeled off (without even glue residue).
