Xbox 360 HACKED, not DVD Drive mod - $600 (Clover)

Reply to: [email protected] [Errors when replying to ads?]

Want an Xbox 360 that can play any Arcade games? Emulators? Games without the disc? Want to be able to put any 2.5 laptop sata hard drive into your xbox 360? Then this is for you. I have a hacked 360 up for sell, I got it back in April last year and it’s been in the box up until last week when I hacked it. It will play all arcade games as the full game, allows you to install games to the HDD and play them without inserting a disc. This console is a black console and comes with an 80 gig HDD. There will be no DISC games on the HDD. There will be arcade trials and I’ll tell you how to convert them to the full versions so that you can play them and get the achievements. The disc drive is flashed to the new LT firmware for the Lite-On drives. The ring of light has been modded and changed to a red center light and blue other lights. I have over 260 arcade titles, and over 800 Rock Band songs on this console. There are some homebrew apps on the console, and there are MAME, SNES, Genesis, and other emulators on the box as well. It will play dixv videos without being connected to live, there isn’t much that this console can’t do. It will come with a video cable, power cable, and a retail box. Email me if interested, I may also accept some things for trade as well.

is this even possible?
 
$100 if you got dat and you need to be willing to drop off. I say someone gives him a PS3 shell with a brick inside of it and makes some cash.
 
Well besides the awful grammar/spelling?

I was talking with someone who advertised a Wii/XBox 360/PS3 for best offer. I asked if it was just the systems or what it came with. They said they didn't know. Awesome.
 
[quote name='yourlefthand']Why does this belong in this thread?[/QUOTE]

well, for shits n giggles I just emailed that person and offered them $5 for the system. Considering it's broken and won't turn on and doesn't include anything, that's more than generous.

Guy responded "Ah come on thats way to low I already have offers of 20 and 25 can you make it 30?"

I'd say that more than qualifies for craigslist stupidity...
 
Gamestop also sells 60GB BC models if you are patient. They get in 2 or 3 a week over here. Only thing is they cost more then a new slim. Worth it though. I see people arguing with the employees sometimes about why the used 60gb's cost more then the new slims.

This is completely off topic, but you mentioned north LV. As a tourist, I never ventured far from the strip when I've been in Vegas before. However, this last year, me and some friends rode our motorcycles cross country, and we stayed in Vegas for a couple of nights. We were coming from the north on whatever interstate runs into Vegas. My GPS led me down some scary roads with people camped out everywhere. I've been a lot of places, but have never seen anything like that before.
 
I was selling a broken 2nd gen 8gb iPod Touch on craigslist for $50. It has pictures and a description of what's wrong. I have someone call me up:

Them: Would you accept a trade?
Me: Yeah. What do you have?
Them: ....
Me: Hello?
*another person picks up the line*
Them: Hello?
Me: Yes, hello.
Them: Would you do $45?
Me: Sure
Them: Can you bring it to me?
Me: Sure
Them: Does it come with the cable to charge it?
Me: No but it's still charged
Them: Well then I can do $30
Me: Oh no thank you then
Them: BUT I NEED THE CABLE!!!
* I hang up*

*They call back*
Me: Hello?
Them: I'll do 45.
Me: Ok. You know it's broken though before I make the trip right?
Them: Oh I don't want it then.
Me: You're a fucking retard. Why would I sell something for $50 that I could sell for $130? And you wanted to talk me down too? Get a fucking life.
 
Well yea remember NOBODY knows how to read the ads anymore.

People like that piss the living hell out of me, I seriously can't keep my self control when I get a phone call and I get some deadbeat asshole wanting me to sell it for a shitty offer.

I remember when the iPhone 3G came out I put up my 16GB iPhone 2G and at the time they still got up to $350+ for it. I had everything, the box, the earphones were still in the wrapper, and I had AppleCare 2 year warranty still. So I ended up posting it for $325 just to get it out of there fast. Granted, I did sell it fast, but I swear I had like a flood of e-mails for the iPhone asking:

"Hey does it come with everything?" (Which I CLEARLY wrote on the ad that It came with everything and it was mint.)

"I have cash in hand and im willing to pay $200 for it" I love that, I just love how they say 'cash in hand'. Obviously I ignored the post.

But man, cheapass deadbeats like that will never rest. For example, check this.

http://austin.craigslist.org/mob/1566142394.html

I once sent an email to a guy making it sound like I was selling a totally sweet iPhone, unlocked, with two hard case covers, all accessories and box, for his asking price. Then a few replies later I wrote "Oh I almost forgot to tell you that the iphone is a little dinged up and cracked on the front, but it still works! \\:D/
 
Yeah those guys with the broken english who email you 5 minutes after you put the ad up and offer $50 for a 200 dollar item......... "u tak $50 i pick up today" no, i don't think i will

I don't know what lifestyle people live if they think "cash in hand" is a huge incentive. If you are looking to buy something, I would expect that you would have the money to buy it.

With all this Ipod talk. After a recent "ride" in my laundry machine, I am going to need a new phone. If someone has a broken Iphone, preferably something that is already unlocked for Tmobile, PM me. I am not looking to spend much, so a 2G is fine as long as it is in good condition, aside from being broken.
 
Yeah I love "cash in hand" as if someone is gonna ask me if I have a credit card station. I once told some girl who was all "cash in hand blah blah blah" that I only accepted personal checks in increments of $20 up to the amount offered. I didn't hear back.
 
As far as the cash in hand thing goes, knowing they have the money is worth something. I have settled on a price with several people before the spring the 'I get paid next week' thing on me.
 
At least he admits his OS is pirated. He's a dumbass though for paying $1000 for a laptop with only a 70 gig hard drive. Mine has almost triple the space of that.

Sorry for the late reply... but sounds like you were either on West Owens where the homeless shelters, or the "Homeless Corridor" if you will, are at, or on North Main. The "good" part is that this is about the only place that the city's homeless gather.
Las Vegas has grown and changed. Most new residents proudly proclaim that they live in North Las Vegas ... but when you say it to people that have been here over 20-25 years... we still pause with an eyebrow raised.
 
Apologies for the annoying font; it's direct from the ad. Never mind that the guy is trying to sell backups or the price, he's got a backup of Mario Party for the PS1...:drool:

Hello citizens,

I have recently gave up my passion...larping to start building my time machine. My equipment consists of World of Warcraft themed weaponry, a manikin pony, 3 live elves, 1 light saber and bunch of potions. I can also produce mana refills and a few spells.

In exchange I will need: 3 spark plugs, 10’ of rubber hose, A pack of bubbalicous bubble gum, Computer chair, Flux capacitor, and Lube

Thanks for looking at my post,

Untill then may the force be with you.
