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

lol damn.. imagine when Halo 2 comes out.. people are going to be selling those on Ebay for like 100 bucks each. Since its going to be so hard to get a copy if u haven't reserved by now

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
