43 bones and still has 11 hours left. So being extremely conservative say this item item ends at $50 that means the guy got halo and the special X-Box for 119.99. I'm not so picky that my controller have to match my system but it seems some people are to get a second matching controller

I've mentioned before that the S.E. Xbox is almost worth getting for the controller alone... but I wasn't serious! This is craziness... maybe I should start splitting up the bundles!

Either the top bidder is an idiot or just misinformed. You can buy a green S controller from most stores. Correct me if im wrong.

I dont think there is anything special about the controller on the LE edition bundle, aside from being green. Although the 4th controller port on the Xbox has a Halo logo on top.

Crazy.
I could get a great game with that money, rather than being picky enough to spend that much so it matches my system.

Not to mention that the shipping is $7. It's a complete ripoff and I think this is a fake bidder.

i wouldn't mind having all Halo controllers for my Halo xbox, but i wouldn't pay more than a normal controller costs. the green ones match also.

I dunno i have my limits on what i would do to get a good deal on something but prospering off someone being anal retentive about their system isn't on that list

I'm pretty sure they will produce enough of those puppies. There is no game I would pay $100 for i would just wait a few months if it is hard to get

The difference is that the S.E. controllers have a HALO jewel on the front instead of the XBOX one. Some crazy Halo fans will pay that much, I 've seen a few auctions for that controller get to around $50. But then again I always see people buying newer and older games on ebay for much more than you could get at a local store, and not have to wait for it to get there, I don't get it. here's some of the S.E. pics:

Ebay is a weird universe. Sometimes bidders start competing and in playing a game oneupmanship end up paying way too much for an item.

53 bucks it ended at and that was during a non-peak selling time. This has got me thinking I should get the bundle they have at my bx
