Buy a used Xbox with 2 used games for $139 for anyone still not with Xbox now that Halo 2 is out this is a pretty good deal. There are tons of used games which are platinum hits now that are really great games.

Anyway, I think its a good deal.

Fair warning: I tried to purchase a used X-Box back in July (from EBGames) - it finally arrived after two weeks and it was totally shot. I had to wait another few days to get a return shipping label and send it back and have it inspected before I could get a replacement console. After a week with no updates, I cancelled my order and grabbed a new one from a local store.
From what I've read online, this is not uncommon.
Used X-Boxes and PS2s, IMHO, are for those who have a lot of patience and a lot of luck.
 
When my local Gamestop opened up about a month or two ago, they had used Xboxs for $99.

So I picked one up, it worked for a day and then started crapping out on me. I took it back and they gave me one that was manufactured in August.

The damn thing is practically brand new. Best purchase I've made in a long time.

Well, maybe you don't want those games. It's still cheaper, and if it works fine, then it's a good deal.
 
I thought the Holiday bundles were already out. You get the xbox plus Top Spin and NCAA 2005 with the system, all for 150 bucks. IMHO, I would pay the extra 11 dollars knowing I had a new system, with a used system your playing russian roulette. If you don't want the games just trade them in or sell them. To each they're own.....

They are referring to the Target black friday ad that advertises the standard holiday bundle plus the game Crimson Skies.
 
Just get 150 dollar bundle, I would never buy a used xbox. Evertime I tought about it I pictured some dumbass dropping it on the floor. Then it ending up at my house broke in 31 days.

Yeah, I just picture too yahoos in wife-beaters jumping up and down on their worn-out, spring-bearing couch laughing themselves silly about how their going to trade in their Xbox to Gamerush for credit, and using said Xbox as a launch pad onto the couch, bonking heads and playing grab-ass the whole time.

A used CD-based system would have to be very cheap for me to chance picking one up. And come with mucho warranty.

FYI the NCAA and Top Spin are a dual packaged game on the same disc, not regular retail...no barcode, not for sale etc.....harder to sell....better to trade...
 
I'm probably going to look into this, just so i can make a media center x-box....i just have to fully pay for my DS there though...
