All this for an Xbox...but it's worth it!

Ok so as most of you knew I was sharing an Xbox with AnotherSociety which wasn't going too well as we could only play games with others if we hosted and when he wanted to play one thing I was stuck annoying everyone in the chatbox here. So today I finally got my own but it wasn't as simple as "I want that one...heres the cash..." this is how it went:

We raided the house and found all we could trade in to get it...here is the list:

A PSP with 1GB memory stick €140
A PS2 the old big one € 45
A Tribal Gameboy Advance € 40
PSP Game Ghost in the Shell € 9
PSP Game Coded Arms € 6
PSP Game GTA Liberty € 15
PS2 Game Eve of Extinction € 1
PS2 Game Enter the Matrix € 1
PS2 Game Twin Caliber € 1
PS2 Game Clock Tower € 6
PS2 Game Sphinx Curse of the mummy € 6
PS2 Game The Thing € 1
GBA Game Crash Bandicoot 2 € 3
GBA Game Crash Nitro Kart € 4
GBA Game Tiger Woods € 1
GBA Game Treasure Planet € 1
GBA Game Prince of Persia € 1
XBox 360 Game Battlefield € 21
XBox 360 Game King Kong € 9
XBox 360 Game Tomb Raider Legend € 12
__________________________________________________ __________
TOTAL €323

Purchase included:
Xbox 360 Core System with 2 Games €300
(Viva Pinata & Fusion Frenzy)
Call of Duty 3 € 55
__________________________________________________ __________
Total money spent for Xbox 360 & 3 games € 32


So now the problem is solved...but i get to use the big TV...not a bad days work don't you think?!

I hope you shopped around on those items to get the best trade in deal.

No I wanted one straight away so we just went straight into Game with them...might be a bit silly but I am very impulsive.

I think even if you shopped around you wouldn't have gotten much more. Retailers don't generally give very much for a trade in.

I know I do need a hard drive but the memory stick will do for the moment...have all my other saves on the other XBox hard drive and have a thingy for backing up saves on the computer...I really want to get another controller first so we can play four players on 2 TV's.

After only one week. Well lucky you got a new one, straight away. There must be some serious issues with the 360.

I know i was so annoyed but would have been more so if I had to send it off and wait ages to get one back. Hope this once doesn't go all wonky on me.
