i've seen a lot of these on ebay... i wonder why microsoft isn't so willing to help out when it looks like it's an obvious flaw in the system.

I bought the warranty ($50) so I just get a new one whenever I get the red lights. I've had horrible luck with the 360, so I've had to return a few. They also replace anything you bring (cords etc...)

if it's outside the limited warranty, good luck.

Not the same thing, but just for information to ebayers. I heard on the Official Xbox Magazine Podcast that if you get kicked off of Xbox Live, they actually lock out that entire console, not just gamertags. So that person who gets kicked off can ebay a system that will not work on Live when you boot it up.

:lol i didn't understand it either... but it looks like the xbox got fixed, so it's worth a try.

If it's been less than a year, you can send it in for a replacement. Microsoft just extended the warranty from 90 days to one year, retroactive to date of purchase.

I tried everything. I still got my old one. ill probably trade it to gamestop for some games. The one i found on ebay looks good if it works like it says it does. the seller is giving me a 30 day warranty. $250 and the original was $400. Ill take that.

Most consoles that are brand new are always, buggy. Fuck the hype wait 2 years until the better versions come out.

[Pugglekicker_21]

those are the black ones? idk, 128 GB for 478 bucks i think it said in a magazine I read about that. how much do the ones right now cost?

the premium is 400 and pro is 300. you can find premiums on ebay for 300 bucks used and all there missing is the ethernet cord and headset.

anyway...im gonna buy one on ebay and it doesnt come with an ethernet cable. can i use any phone cord? i have a system link for regular xbox and it looks like the ethernet cable. can i use that instead?
