Selling brand new unopened xbox 360 pro system with 20 gig hard drive,headset,wireless controller,extra new arcade stick with 3 games(time pilot,astropop and frogger).Also included is your choice of 3 other new games.
Pick from
Surfs Up
Def Jam Icon
Xmen
Shrek the Third
Fanatastic four 2
Tomb Raider
Amped 3
Call of Duty 2


They're asking $375 firm and have the reciept which states the $349 price and the gift reciept; they said they want to sell it and buy an Elite with a coupon they have. the reciept is from Best Buy; and I called BB and they told me that if I brought in the system with the gift reciept I should be able to exhange it for the HDMI model with no problem.

My other option is trying to find an etailer with it and getting the PayPal rebate; theoretically it would be 370 shipped (if there's no tax) less the 50 rebate for $320. Here, its $50 more, but I'm getting the arcade stick and 3 games.

What do you think, guys? Should I go for it?

And what should I pick for my games?

Thanks!

Thanks! How are the trade-in value on those? Nothing really catches my eye, I want to be able to flip stuff quick if I don't like them...

you are going to get little money for a trade in of those games since they are old but they are the 3 most enjoyable....also it sounds like a decent deal and if you can return to best buy for the hdmi model with mua and forza then go for it

Why can't they just return the 360 themselves...? I guess I am missing something.

What ever 3 games you get, COD 2 should be one of them.

I have no idea; that's why I'm a little wary about it.

it would be a good deal, though why wouldn't they just return the 360(as they still have the receipt) and pay the extra money for the elite. And something seems strange with those "new" games. Sell games that could be played on their elite? Hmm, something's wary here.

I think they might have raided on Black Friday and/or gotten some stuff on clearance...they mentioned having "extras" of some games.

maybe they used a gift card and want the cash instead, even though it wouldnt make sense if they were going for an elite:-k

Precisely.
