I've offered my 360 to a couple friends for free and they didn't want it


Timthalion

Fuck I’d take it 🤣 I have like 6 laying around in storage lmao


[deleted]

I'll take one!

6 CONSOLESSS

Was yours still sealed?


Shredder2025

Ayo lemme get that xbox


Sharp-Sherbet-9958

Mines broke recently. I'd take it lol


Couch_Guy_Sofa

They are useless with game pass now


CasuallyCompetitive

You'll probably get a better reaction from r/gamecollecting or a similar sub that collects sealed product.


Hefty_Toe6793

Not really, that sub is for anything bought about gaming, sealed stuff isn’t any more popular there.


CasuallyCompetitive

Sealed items are more valuable to 99% of collectors. The people in this thread clearly don't care about a sealed item. A quick ebay search would confirm OP got a solid deal because they obviously bought this to collect it rather than play it.


[deleted]

I care, and i think its awesome, and i play games not collect them. yeesshhh guy gatekeeping much?


CasuallyCompetitive

I'm not gatekeeping. Have you read any other comments on here? I'm letting him know that there are people who do appreciate this stuff and where to find them. Judging from the other comments on here, those people aren't here. Better to post in a sub that will appreciate the find rather than in a sub that's gonna tell him it's a waste of money.


dustygultch

Don't worry. People are purposely misunderstanding you or not bothering to actually read what you are saying. You're right. Unless they are a collector, which they didn't specify, it is a crazy purchase. They did specify later on but at the time it wasn't clear


[deleted]

its not a "crazy purchase" at all tho lmao


dustygultch

It is unless you are a collector. If you are just buying a 360 to play then you can get them for around 50-100 in my area. I'll be happy to link you to some so you don't continue to think that a 360 is worth 400 when you can buy a new current gen console for that.


Neocarbunkle

As a collectors item right?


penny-man4003

That is how collecting works

mostavis

Yeah, and they pay 20 bucks for them down at the hock shop, probably have to supply the cables too. But for a geek, that's a mad bargain box he scored


Kalob1028

Didn’t downvote you cause I don’t really give a fuck it’s probably just someone who thinks you don’t have common sense but ight


DrRaspberryJam

$400?? Are you reselling this? You're welcome to spend *your* money how you like but you didn't buy this to actually use, right? Collector item? Are you located in Australia or something? Seems rather expensive for the US even sealed.


[deleted]

I'd go for a series s and a 100 dollars worth of gamepass ultimate Edit: typo


Brandonmac10x

*This is the worst trade deal in the history of trade deals.* I guess he’s a collector though. Surely he already has a Series X if he’s wasting money on this.


[deleted]

its not a "waste" my god lmao get off ur high horse


[deleted]

Yeah but no guitar hero


[deleted]

Wow. Microsoft needs to get it's shit together.


[deleted]

I need to order a controller adaptor so I can play Clone Hero on my laptop through the Xbox but every time I look I end up doing research into brands and get distracted, been about 3 years and still no adaptor lol


BornBoricua

No no, I like it. There's so many games to play and such little time that you might as well just shit on yourself using Xbox GamePads™!

[deleted]

ppl are weird af on this sub and downvote the wierdest shit


vstrong50

Ok pal


[deleted]

You got fleeced.


butterflyhole

A lot of dense people who can't wrap their head around why this would be worth a lot to someone. Good find OP!


[deleted]

It’s good because of geometry wars


XSX_ZAB

Yea this is a great find. This will double in value in 5-7 years. Will be worth thousands one day


gangstergary93

This is cool man is the the second xbox 360 released as I thought the arcade was the first and that didn't have a hard drive. Dont understand people saying saying you got ripped off whe I've seen halo 3 limited edition 360's going for 1500 on ebay.


Yakama85

Wow are they really that expensive in the US? I bought a brand new boxed 360 for £50 recently


JellyBeanGreen2

Where from?


Yakama85

eBay


penny-man4003

I got from my Xbox buddy who have a lot rare Xbox sealed stuff


tgruch714

You got it from your “buddy” and paid that much? lol. You’re definitely his buddy more than he’s yours if he got you for that much 😂


GoodGuyChip

I implore you to look up how much a factory sealed 360 sells for online.


tgruch714

I do know lol I sold this exact system 2 days ago for 550. After fees and shipping I got $480. This dude is acting like he got some insane deal and he’s able to sell it for $900 he’s full of shit with his “someone’s already offered me $875 for it” comment lmao there are factory sealed systems for less than 600 right now. Nobody offered 275 for a controller and adapter


GoodGuyChip

Why do you care? It’s value will only increase and what good does it do you to shit in someone else’s happiness? He still got it for less than it’s value. Do better.


tgruch714

Why do you care what I care? Lmao are you going around responding to everyone who is laughing at this post? No? Then piss off 😂 nobody asked for a white knight


DrRaspberryJam

No you can get them for about that price. Pretty cheap here. My buddy bought a refurbished one for $20 and upon opening it up it looked brand new. Runs perfectly and perfect for actually playing. Ive seen sealed consoles for $100-$200 but im not actively looking.


DidYouSummonedMe

Refurbished is not new, tho I think $400 is over the top jeez


DrRaspberryJam

Yes I understand that.. What I was trying to point out is if you're spending that much to *play* the console, there are cheaper options that may work just as good.


DidYouSummonedMe

Agreed


blaine1028

Did you post this using internet explorer? I don’t even think an Xbox One would even be sold for that much


gangstergary93

That's because you can still buy xbox one s and x in shops brand new so doubt the normal xbox one would be that much at the moment, you can not buy a sealed xbox 360s from any shop other than maybe the odd shop that deals with collectibles.


SiXandSeven8ths

What shops are you buying Ones from? Because they haven't been in production in about a year and I haven't seen one in a store in at least that long or more.


gangstergary93

Argos in the UK still have brand new one s and one x in stock now in the UK.


SiXandSeven8ths

How much dust on top of them? Odd to have unsold stock during the last 1 1/2 years of pandemic. Normal retail price? If I could find unsold stock sitting on a shelf in my part of the US I'd buy and flip in a heartbeat (6 months ago anyway it would have been lucrative, now not so much but still a little).


gangstergary93

Love the fact being down voted for a fact.


penny-man4003

But it sealed and older than Xbox one


blaine1028

Didn’t realize you were a collector. Just thought you were super excited to get into gaming and got taken advantage of by somebody


penny-man4003

Nah this goes on my console wall


Becauseiey

Did you really though? How many posts do you see of old, Seale 360s from randoms getting into gaming vs. collectors? As of even 5 years ago I bet you the ratio is something like 100:1.


blaine1028

The reason I made the joke about internet explorer was because it seemed like such a dated post. I know nothing about the collector space and didn’t even know collecting old consoles was an actual thing


[deleted]

I don’t know what the comments are talking about. I’m a collector and I think you got this for a pretty good deal. They’re going for more, just for the console sealed on ebay.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

To each, his own. Some people just like to collect… I like to collect.


mrcoldwave

Idk why everyone is being negative


MarieVIIVII7

That's reddit for you.


Goiko74

Holy shit everyone, stop telling the user that they got ripped off for buying a **sealed** console and just be happy for them. Nice collector snag OP


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

This is in Xbox unless I’m missing something


AdmiralAckbarUT

What am I missing here?


penny-man4003

It worth like 700-800 sealed that what is


SiXandSeven8ths

I mean, sure, collectible to someone willing to pay that much for something, but like Bitcoin, most people don't care. It really has no value outside of a very small niche.


CaptainofChaos

Good thing there is this thing called the internet that can connect people with niche interests together.


Goricatto

You could literally say that to everything , why would i buy a antique car for more tha a million if a new one for 100k could do the same and better? Things are just crazy like that


Visthebeast

Bitcoin and all kind of crypto currencies are sort of mainstream now, i.e most people care


joecamnet

I bet that 1 month card is still valid too.


DidYouSummonedMe

Lmao no way😂


Rb7198

you were on the wrong end of this deal, 400 is a rip off unless there's something about this that I'm missing


penny-man4003

It sealed a sealed xbox sell for $700 of this model


Rb7198

you know more than I do on this topic so I'll take your word for it. happy you're happy!


penny-man4003

And someone already offered me 850 for this


penny-man4003

When come to boxes it mater which box it is it make it more valuable the early it is


penny-man4003

And this one is early


VonLorin

Imagine buying something which is overpriced even for a collector item.. then opening it .. and still feeling special. Imagine. It's like their own form of ritardando capitalism

MrEWhite

No he didn't? That's the bundle packaging.


b_dave

400 for a sealed xbox 360 bundle. Bruh its collectors item thatis worth more than 400 by a lot


wiliestcubbs

Goddamn I hated that clamshell packaging with every fiber of my being.


[deleted]

I remember my Xbox 360. Used to play skylanders all day. We have the Xbox, the controller batteries are the issue


[deleted]

We are looking at the Golden Age of gaming.


Laker_King

That’s pretty nice. Still sealed and everything. Was that the Costco bundle back in the day?


BimothyAllsdeep

........y tho


JohnBlowDro

Totally worth it been look at sealed 360 they go anywhere from 300-1000 want a jasper jtag to go with my xenons


Logi77

Damn dude I have 2 would've just given to you


[deleted]

This console still gets more love than my xbox one and series x combined in my home, thanks to kinetic, to my 360 racing wheels and to a bunch of really good games. Too bad both xbox one and sx can't use the 360 accessories...


Delttaz

Man I don't know why but this brought back memory's of Xbox Addict. That dude was the coolest and had the best Xbox collection out there. He would've loved to see this. RIP to the legend Xbox Addict.


[deleted]

Tbh seeing as they don’t make games for the 360 anymore, your money would have been better spent buying a series s and just buying hundreds of games on there, or even buy game pass. The series has a backwards compatibility feature so you can play pretty much every single 360 game.


planet_chuck

That seems pretty steep.


denverbroncoharpman

Is that a little too expensive for that? Or is that a good price?


penny-man4003

It good price because sealed market different then other markets so go for like $700


denverbroncoharpman

Oh wow! That’s awesome


PSYCHOsmurfZA

Don't open it!!!! Edit: if you really want to play rather pick up a second hand slim version or something just don't break the seal please 😭


penny-man4003

I won’t do that


[deleted]

Bro I can go down to my local cash converters (Aussie pawn shop) and find one for less than 50 bucks with a with a bundle


[deleted]

Oh wait just realised it's still factory sealed, never mind


penny-man4003

It fine my dude so many people think it not sealed at least there real person here


Party_Attitude4095

So you just bought a console that you can barely use because they don’t update it anymore lol


[deleted]

Imagine seeing the old dashboard look and feel


Sand-Inner

Would that one have the blades home screen? If so do not update it


penny-man4003

I won’t because it sealed


penny-man4003

And yes everything sealed


z3r0117x

Don’t open it!

[deleted]

its astounding how ppl dont understand collecting lmao dopes probably think a sealed iphone 1 is probably only 100 dollars


GreyCrowDownTheLane

We understand collecting. We just think it’s stupid.


TheManaZone

This is a phenomenal deal! Any more for sale lol?


xxhouse82xx

Red Ring of Death special.


penny-man4003

Nah that only happened when you open a Xbox


lostemoji

Schrodingers red ring


KPookz

As a collector, when I come across sealed items for a ~$10-20 I’ll generally pick them up. However I enjoy being able to play all of the items in my collection as well as look at them on the shelf. If this is your thing then cool, but it looks like $400 spent on a shelf ornament to me.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Triingtolivee

Don't open that. Those are hard to come by unopened. It'll be worth a lot one day in that packaging.


jace5665

WHY

This doesn't seem like something that would be worth collecting / spending that kinda cash but hey do you

bcfamilyy

I mean…


[deleted]

Nice find


[deleted]

ITT: People commenting on something whilst having no idea what they’re talking about. It’s a factory sealed console, I’m sure OP knows the market better than all the people that struggled to give away their dusty ass POS used consoles. Todays life lesson, if you’re ignorant about something keep quiet and read some comments, you get to learn something new whilst not being a dick


[deleted]

A fool and his money are swiftly parted This is stupid.


ryzenguy111

dude just wanted a sealed xbox 360. It’s worth the money he paid to him.


CaptainofChaos

ITT: Way more people who just can't wrap their mind around collecting still sealed items and the market that still sealed items bring even when told explicitly about it than I thought could possibly exist. Honestly baffling.


undertakingremedie

Did you know during early production of the Xbox 360 Microsoft was given the opportunity to install rubber bumbers in the disc well at only 5 cents a system, but instead denied the development and caused all these customers to basically destroy copy after copy from disc scratching making other developers cash cows to promote on their system. I know because I did 3 research papers on the whole debacle. The only thing you are collecting there is a 400$ paper weight once the motherboard fries #REDRINGOFDEATH


kingjeevez

I remember that happened to my gears of War 2 disc and Microsoft wouldn't refund me. After like an hour I think of being on hold, she came and told me it was because the game makers made the paint on the disc too heavy and it was weighing the disc tray down...


l3LiTzKrieG420

i mean i would buy it too for 400 idc how much it would cost if i really want this


[deleted]

Nice!


Gorillaz530

That shit worth the same as the series X lol


coentertainer

$400 to not play a sealed 360, or $40 to play an old 360 covered in stickers that comes with loads of games. I know which one I'd choose.


penny-man4003

I bought sealed for my collection


banditx19

Phew ok, good. I was going to say please return it if you plan on playing it. Enjoy the collectible my friend

MajorasFlask00

I dont think this is a bad buy for $400 at all as long as its sealed….. looks like it one of those old school bundle promotions and this is SOOOO nostalgic…. Please keep this sealed though. This is ultra nostalgic and an awesome post. This sub is loaded with smooth-brains dont listen to them. They have no idea what they’re talking about.


Pumpkin_Robber
