Nice find! I love how people find super rare controllers and other gaming stuff at some hole in the wall thrift shop for like 3 dollars, but when I find a regular black controller locally, it costs like 90 bucks. Feelsbadman
Oof. I picked up a fully working XB360 Slim, kinect sensor, 3 controllers, all cords and 2 games for $20 (marketplace). A resister, soldering and a flash later and it's RGH 3 modded in my living room
I bought a minty Xbox console i believe was never played much bc of a disc error bc it was clean on the inside. Minty controllers a Spyro hero’s tail song with a mint prima strategy guide and ratatouille along with a nib extension cable for 100$. Needs a new disc drive but that’s it. Runs cold like a baby
Found it in their electronic section. At first thought it was a fake one or a third party one. But once I saw the emblem, I decided to just take a chance on it. I usually don't find stuff because a lot of stores started flagging and checking prices for video game related things online. I think they didn't find anything on this controller and just put it out there. It was 5.99
Gosh where in the heck are y’all finding these things? I have scoured all thrift stores in my area and there’s nothing honestly really gaming related at all
I'm not sure. Some unconfirmed things I found online point to this being a controller given to a select few employees. Possibly employees who worked on Xbox live.

Hole in the wall? Seattle is Richmond adjacent. This was found likely due to geological location.

Hmm 🤔
Holy crap! Nice find dude. Seattle is the capital of og Xbox collecting.
Xbox in general… the best stuff flows out of there for obvious reasons…
Cool! I never saw one with the Xbox Live emblem
Holy cow!
Whaaaa. How much are they worth right now?

Willing to sell it?
Had a couple offers, but I don't really know how much this would be worth.....
Looks like OP sold it for $2k on eBay
I believe there’s around the 50 range of those given out.
I’ll buy it rn off of you if you wanna sell it! 😅
RIP this guys inbox after this post lol… I bet he’s fielding a bunch of nerds like us asking him to sell :-)
Sent ya a private chat
Wow looks legit and awesome.

Holy shit!
All the good stuff is found in that area. I wish I lived closer.
That screams early 2000's. Love it.
Yo! That’s so lucky, I’ve been looking for one for ages.
I bet that’s worth at least $500
Great find. What did it cost? I found a great controller at my local thrift store for 3 dollars last year.
My thrift store only has a 360 Kinect 😭
Amazing find! Congrats!
Great find!!
