2 Questions about 360 Powerbrick and 20 GB Hard Drive.

[The Jones]

I have these things lying around my house from a 360 that crashed. I'm wanting to take these to Gamestop. Yes, I know I could sell them on eBay and probably make more using that method. But seriously. How much (estimate or maybe the exact) do you think I could get for these two items at Gamestop. They do take them; I remember asking them.

Any ideas?

You really, really should sell these on ebay. You will get at least 5X more

 

[The Jones]

Haha, yeah, I know. Unless someone wants them on here for a good deal.

Call and ask? Be a dick if they tell you they won't give prices over the phone. Works for me.

they give you $20 for the HDD i think... kmart sells it for $25

you are sitting on about $30-40 for both i would guess

 

[The Jones]

Yeah, I just called them and that's what happened. I wasn't being a good enough "dick" I suppose.... I actually didn't try. Oh well. I'm about to go up there anyways. I have a few errands to do so, I might as well just swing by. I'll let you know how much though.

 

[The Jones]

Yeah, I got $35 for both. Not bad I guess..... eBay would have probably been the better route. Oh well.

Remember, it's only a crime to kids if you're not a multinational corporation.

So the brick is about $25 on ebay and the drive $50?

Yea, no kidding - really just like throwing money away don't you? I think I'd rather have put a little effort for ~$65 or so (after fees) in my bank account then $35 store credit at GameStop. Thats probably just me, I like an extra $30, I'm weird like that.

Some people don't like Ebay as there is no guarantee that it will sell, especially the brick since not many people would be interested, plus the fees, and the shipping as well as scum. True Gamestop is scum as well, but you get cash immediately.

Do you have the controller and/or the video cable?
