Re: [360] what to do with RRoD 360? said by Mr Fel:I've sold my broken console to Gamestop. Did they know it was broken?
The Gamestop here is really picky, about the condition of the stuff they buy. I was not aware they would accept a broken console or anything of that matter.
I'll have to call them and ask them about it sometime.
It would seem to me that if the console is RROD and out of warranty that they wouldn't want to eat the cost of having it repaired..

| when i called gamestop last week i told them mine had the rrod and was outside of the 3 year warranty and they said they would give me $30 for it as long as i also included the power supply, av cords and the wireless controller, they confirmed over the phone that they did not need the 20gb hard drive. i asked about this since i'm currently using mine in my new elite and have not yet needed to use the 120gb hd that it came with. |

It's the luck of the draw with gamestops, I've been to really great ones and a few that I've never visited again, the guys at mine tested mine even after I told them it was rrod.
This is my thinking on them buying the rrod ones is that they probably just resell them back to MS as spare parts for a tiny profit.

Well, one of the Gamestops here sells the power supply alone for $39.99. Wireless controller probably goes for $25.00 depending on condition.
So, the RRoD console is gravy after that. |
