About a day after I rashly bid on and won a new xbox 360 elite during a charity event, I came to the conclusion that the Playstation 3 is really better for me. I like blu ray, wifi and rechargable controllers, and one has all of these while the other has none. So onto Craigslist goes the xbox 360 bundled with Resident Evil 5, Fight Night Round 4 and Fallout 3, all new in their wrapping. The retail value, even with the lowered pricing, of all this stuff is $480. I'm asking much less.
Alas, it seems that while Craigslist is a fantastic place to sell your furniture, it is a festering hell hole for video game sales. I'm up against shady characters offering to sell xbox 360's for like $100 new. They've been called out as having "hot" product, but that's my competition and likely how I am probably viewed as a result since I have no store receipt.
My first offer came from a scammer. My second came from a dude who wanted to trade his new blackberry storm for it. No thanks. The third one came from what turned out to be a kid using his aunt's email and only wanted to trade his wii. The latest one came from what I am coming to believe is a person who intended to rob me. There are some folks asking for xbox's who say they have cash, but my inquiries were scoffed at. Apparently, unless I practically give them the machine, they aren't interested.
Anyone want a new xbox 360? It's the cool black one with HDMI. eh? eeehh?

what about perhaps just Fight Nght Round 4? I'd be interested in purchasing that from you. Haven't boxed on a video game since Knockout Kings!! (wii boxing doesn't count)
How much you asking? Hit me up on FB.
Hi guys. I did end up selling the whole shebang for the same price I acquired it, shortly before both your comments.
Goose if you are still interested in Fight Night Round 4, I don't know that the person who bought it is that interested in that game and might be interested in selling it.
