XBox 360s bought from eBay and warranties

[iamtrout]

If you buy a 360 from eBay can you use your Paypal "receipt" as your sales receipt when sending in a warranty claim?

What if you don't have a receipt because you paid by personal check?

does it hafta come from an authorized retailer for the warranty to be valid?

Well, since there is no fine print on the Xbox 360 warranty currently, I have no idea. But judging from the original XBOX's warranty,

"This Limited Warranty applies to the original purchaser only and may not be assigned or transferred. However, some jurisdictions extend the protection of implied warranties to subsequent consumers and therefore this limitation may not apply to you."

So original purchaser = who?

original purchaser would be the person selling on ebay, right?

it's likely that yes, it is the person selling on ebay, unless you are dealing with an online vendor who will charge sales tax.

That's right, but it varies from state to state, so it may not apply. The key is to know the law in your state.

eBay is not selling you the xbox. A PERSON is using ebay to sell you the xbox. That person is the original buyer, even if they did not open it. You are not. The warranty does not apply to you unless you live in a state which forces warranties to be transferable.
