I wonder if they take Paypal, I'll have to check.

 

[petey117]

not sure....but i do know that i use my paypal debit card, and get 1.5% cash back on everything. you should look into getting one of those. I use it for everything. Really adds up on the bigger purchases, and you get the money instantly

+15 for ground shipping to me.

Buy.com has the refurbished xbox for $149 with free shipping, but they are out of stock right now. I will add that the refurbished xbox I ordered from Buy.com looked new. The case was in perfect shape, and there was no dust inside the xbox or on the fan.

I know, seems like everyone is OOS on this one. Still even at $15 shipping it's not too bad. I already have an XBOX, but I told my borther to get in on this one (he still has ps1 - ugh!)

$179.99 was the price I saw at Buy.com.

I checked ebay last night, and the cheapest buy it now is $145 with $25 shipping. I thought about making some $$ on this, but looks a little too tight

I can't link to it for some reason.... You will have to click "games", then "xbox", and then "hardware". If you want to add the refurbished xbox to your cart, then you have to click the "buy now" button. If you click on anything else, then it will take you to the "build a bundle" page and the only option there is the new xbox for $179.

so are the refurbs out of stock or in stock?

It's 149 at all gamestops and ebgames I've seen. Be careful though, "Pre-played" or "Pre-owned" is different from "refurbished". refurbished are the ones from microsoft, the others are second hand ones that may have been sold back because of botched modchip installations.

Overstock has them for $139.99, and shipping is only $2.95. Also, use the $5 coupon for new customers to save a little more.

 

[petey117]

I don't see it there, do they have it in stock.....do you have a link?

Just FYI, I purchased one of the refurbished units from buy.com about two weeks ago. When I opened the box, I found that cosmetically the unit was fine, but it came with the older controller instead of a Controller S. It ran fine for the first few days, but then started shutting itself off randomly. It's back there now and I'm awaiting a refund, but FWIW, I guess Microsoft didn't quite get out the bugs worked out on this refurb. I'm just going for a new unit - I don't mind the cost - the biggest annoyance was losing all my progress on games.
