Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

The Xbox alone should get you 95 bucks.

NCAA=25
ESPN=7
NBA 2k6=33
DVD=20
Mem card=10
action replay= I'm not sure. I'm selling my console too and I'm not sure what price I should put on this.

I'm thinking 15-20 for AR, is that too high?

Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

People are selling their AR's on ebay for about 30 bucks. To me, I don't see a difference between a used AR or a new one. So I'd say 20 bucks is good.

Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

Okay, I did it. Now for sale, my xbox, 2 s-controllers, HD Pack with Component Cables, ESPN NFL 2K5, Madden 2005 (I know I know), ESPN College Hoops 2005, and MVP 2005,and Action Replay. I just bundled it all.
Buyer can get NBA 2K6 for free using the Buy it Now option for $250.

Hell, broken PS2's are still fetching 50 bucks on Ebay...not including the 15-20 bucks for shipping.

Re: Gamestop has 360 allocations

Just called my Gamestop. The rep I spoke to said that "unfortunately" they're only getting 12 consoles on launch. I imagine that they must have taken well over 70 - 100 pre-orders, as I'm #37 and I pre-ordered back in June. What's up with that? If there's no shortage and it's all just a marketing-scheme by MS, then this makes little sense. The guy also said that after launch, they expect to get at least one - yes, one - console per week, and they hope to fill all their pre-orders by Christmas.

I don't live in a small-town or anything, so I don't know what gives. If all this is really true, then someone - could be MS, could be Gamestop, I don't know - but someone needs to sharpen up their business skills.

[WTF]

Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

SoMiss, If it were me, I'd probably have sold it all seperately. I know the deal you had w/ the guy paying late, which always sucks, but you could sell your Xbox, 2 controllers, and component cables seperately for around $120. Probably got $30 for NBA 2K6, $15 for MVP, and everything else probably $5-10 a piece. I know it isn't what you were looking for, but you'd probably have gotten more seperately rather than a bundle.

I have sold both ways in the past 6 months, and seperately I made a killin. I hope it sells for you though brother.

WTF

I think someone would bite at 250. Hell, Footballforever sold his stuff for 300. That's the console, 3 games and an AR.

If I'm SOMiss, I stick with the 250 for a day or two.

Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

I don't know Vince, in the past 6 months, I sold one bundled w/ 6 games (all relatively new) for $155. I sold an xbox w/ 2 controllers, NBA 2k6, Halo 1, and Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, for over $190. People look at the Buy it Now price on a bundle, and don't really stop to think about what they are getting, some just discard it as "too expensive for an xbox". There are a few people who would buy it, but the chances are few and far between that it will sell for $250 bundled. I hope it does for SoMiss though.

Just in my experience, that's how mine sold better. It's all up to the seller though. It may not be worth the hassle for some people to list everything seperately for a $20-30 gain.

Just my $.02 though

Re: just said bye to my black box gearing up for 360 now

SoMiss, how much for shipping?

$25 for shipping. WT talked me into doing it separately. I'm working on it now. Peer pressure is a mutha.
