Best Deal on Original Xbox Console?

[meditative_zebra]

Hey gang, my original Xbox just died on me last week. What's the best deal on a replacement console?

Gamestop sells a refurbished console for $50. Most of the systems I've seen on Ebay cost as much or more once you factor in shipping. Is there anywhere I could pick up a used Xbox for $20 or so?

Craigslist.

Yeah, I've been checking on Craigslist. But most of the people around here are asking $40-50. That seems like a pretty steep price to me. Are those prices reasonable? Or I should I hold out for something closer to my ideal $20-25 range?

Craigslist - the bastards who stole my complete, unused, still in box, xbox this weekend probably have it up there.

If you have a Half-Price books nearby, try them. I've seen some very good deals on a Dreamcast, original Xbox, PSX, and games.

You're probably not going to find one anywhere online for that price cause that bitch is heavy... shipping alone would be close to $20...

Vintage stock they have it for $30 or $40 ")
