Get 12 months of Xbox Live for $27.99 photo

eBay has an awesome deal for Xbox Live Gold today.  You can get a years subscription of Gold for $27.99, saving yourself $22 from the regular price of $49.99. The deal is only good until June 28, 8:00 PDT so you better act fast.

This deal is especially good for all you collectors out there. I've never seen a green and Avatar themed 12 month Live card yet. This is a must just for the packaging alone. Prove you're the biggest Xbox 360 fanboy with your stack of useless Xbox related packages!  

Also, I could have given you a generic header image of Xbox Live Gold packaging. Instead, I gave you Party Dog. You're welcome. 

[Update: Dang. All of the Gold cards eBay had are gone. Frys some for $39.99 and I found some for $37 over on Amazon. Not as good, but still not the full $50 at least.]

Platypus - You're a really bad deal.

Considering the complex system that you can get for the deal, $27.99 aint bad.

@Platypus

Step 1) Ask your mom for a 360 for Christmas
Step 2) Sign up for a windows live email account
Step 3) Input your email into your 360, and when they ask "how are you paying for a Gold membership?" you hit "I'm not": you receive 1 month free.
Step 4) Repeat
Step 5) Waaambulance is called off

So I can now have racial epithets screamed at me by pre-pubescent American homophobes for half the price?

Dammit, I can't believe it's already sold out. Well, I CAN believe it, but I'm not happy about it.

I wonder about the context of that header image?

Deal sounds good but it's the kind of thing that doesn't apply to people on my part of the world

@Magnalon
But then how do you unlock achievements for your original account?
With no Achievements there is no purpose in owning a 360.

Supposedly they'll be on sale at buy.com on Monday, but I'm not sure the price will be as good, maybe tho.
