My xbox is broke. Should i Send it away for $130 and get it replaced or repaired or should i just buy a new one for $200. If i got it repaired, that means i would pay $430 for my xbox. if i bought a new one, it would be like having 2 xbox's, (one broken). but something might happen with the broken one (sell it, Fix it?, smash it with a hammer). What do you think i should do? thanks


I bought mine from circuit city around launch, does any one know of some policy they have that would help?

BTW my xbox is out of warranty.

Bring that s4it in back in the box and say you wanna return it. Try going to walmart, they will ask for a recipet but say it was a present. Then they will say "we can only give you store credit". Take the store credit and buy a new one. Be sure to wipe out your HD 1st too

hey J, how is he gonna erase the HD when the thing is broke? Actually it depends on how it is broke, I guess. WZER, what is wrong with it? Depending on the problem. you might be able to fix it yourself..

He could always take a strong magnet to it...

...then again that would wipe out the ENTIRE thing ;)

You could easily buy a new one and put the broken one back in the box, take it back and say its broken then you'll have two... Wassup!!

dude go to walmart and return it! I could return used toilet paper to that place w/ no questions asked, and they don't check the numbers that would require to much logic, which most walmart employees don't possess! I love that store!
