Anyone want a good laugh?

Recommended Posts

That's just odd. Here... buy my broken piece of silicon for a ridiculous amount of money. Who the heck in their right mind would make such a purchase and why does the ROM not work? Did the guy test it somehow? If some nutjob buys this, I'm going to put my desoldering skills to work, throw a clean suit on and pitch working AND non-working ROMS to the unsuspecting public. lol

I see a lot of crazy auction but I also see a lot of crazy people buying broken xbox360's and bidding 50 to 60 dollars with like 20 shipping for just a red ring console with no cords or hard drive and at game stop you can get a refurbished console with a wired controller and all the cords ready for use for $109 or a wireless controller with it instead for $119. I'm not sure if thats with the hard drive but for the price difference on just the broken console it would cost more plus the labor to have the same thing. That's a prime example of people that are not smart enough to check to see if there getting a deal or not. I'll admit got one for $50 with shipping the other day with the cords plus the power supply and no controller but I know whats wrong with it and it will be running up to par about 5mins after delivery. Its even modded to play backup games which is why I bought it. My kids are hard on disks. I wont even have to break it down. I got 10 controllers already so I know I didn't get hurt on that one. With game stop having nation wide prices like that who could buy a bare console for $30 plus shipping and make enough to be worth it in the end. It would almost be like working for half minimum wage. Although I saw many go for $150 used on epay.

If anyone wants to see for them selves on the game stop prices here's a link to refurbished consoles www.gamestop.com/browse/search.aspx?dsNav=N:133-196 second one down on the first page and first one on the second page. They only give $20 on a trade in of a broken console but it has to have all cords the power brick and controller though so its not worth trading in.

 

 

Edit: I had a couple beers last night and don't really drink and feel I should make a public apology for part of my post as it might seem rude to some on the third line down. I'm very sorry If I upset anyone. I wasn't thinking strait and could have come up with a better way to say things. It will not happen again.
