Selling the 360

[Jesse Willadson]

Before we go forward it has nothing to do with Microsoft or what not, its about money
I am in a bad position in that I owe allot of people money, but have no money to give. Ive been semi-irresponsible any way and need to pay these people back.
So I decide that its time for some things to go and the 360 came up. almost all the games I already owe on my pc anyways so its pretty much settled that its time for it to go.

The question is how much should I charge for the hole package?
Its the white 360, with a 120 gb hard drive, and an attachment for wireless internet. The games are: mass effect 1-3, dragon age origin: ultimate edition, dragon age 2, dead space 1 and 2, dark souls and skryrim. It also has a wireless controller with rechargeable batteries.

And please no, that games sucks/ xbox sucks responses. This is a serious issue and I need serious responses

Damn, well thats unfortunate.

I would say maybe $300? Bare in mind the xbox is the old version and second hand.

You may sell it all quicker though if you sold some of the games separately.

I reckon £150-£200 is what you should sell it for, considering the newest Xbox model costs around £150. I think you'll get 200 max because of the games.

You'd probably get about £150 max for that.

After finding out the Xbox saves card info to the hard drive I've decided I'm going to be buried with mine

Err... You might want to try closer to £150

Yeah just had a look on Amazon and they're going for £160. The S model on its own has never been above £200. £250 is probably with a Kinect too

You'd probably be better off trying to sell the games separately and selling your X-Box & peripherals for what ever you get offered.

Old 360s without a warranty and a random life expectancy aren't really worth a lot, as potentially they could get the RROD at any time and the buyer would have to pay to get it fixed.

Due to this negative stigma and risk factor, bundling the 360 with the games could actually reduce the money you'd get for the games if you sold them separately as a buyer has a lot of leverage to haggle down the price of the bundle, e.g "If the 360 gets a RROD of death, then all the games are also useless to me so I should have a discount on the games too".

At least someone buying the games separately will already have a working 360 and someone buying an old 360 on it's own should be fully aware of what they're buying (i.e. an old 360 to replace their own broken 360 or to cannibalise for parts).
