I passed loads of stores in Manchester UK on Friday and they all had stock even asda wallmart
But dont bother with the UK model its inferior

But at £425 its a bit steap
http://www.videogamesplus.ca/

Get a US one from here for £327.66
£100 cheaper (only got games off them but it takes a week)
But if it does a "360" on you you will have to buy another
