Question

Should i buy a used or new xbox 360?

Answer 1

depends on what condition the used one is. I woudn't buy a used Xbox over $200 cause then you might as well buy a new one.  

Answer 2

I SUGGEST A PS3 NEW

Answer 3

It's really a matter of balancing what matters more to you. If money's the issue, then yea, the used one will be cheaper. However, most of the used Xboxes tend to be refurbished ones that were sent back to Microsoft for one reason or another. If this is the case, it may have had RROD (Red Ring of Death) at one point. The older consoles are a lot more prone to this than the newer ones, and if it happens, you'll have to send it off to Microsoft to be fixed.

I know I got an Xbox recently at Gamestop, and the price difference between the two was less than 30 dollars. I just found it more worth it to buy the new one that I knew wasn't a refurb.

Answer 4

Xbox 360 Refurbished ($189.99 (wired) $199.99 (wireless)+20GB HDD Used ($60)+($20) 1 year protection plan = About $270 (wired) and $280 (wireless) @ GameStop!

Answer 5

I absolutely think you should get a newer one for many reasons. although the price is a big difference it will all be very much worth your money as the used ones may be as said before have had problems in the past with rrod, they most likely have used the towel trick on it to make it seem like it works fine then after a week...BOOM rrod. they may have opened it up to void the warranty or possibly even have modded it so Microsoft will not accept it making you pay an additional 90 dollars for it to be fixed by some complete stranger so ya buy a new one!  

Answer 6

Going to be just blunt: If You Have The Money Get A New One. Overall a new one gets you a opportunity to get a Warranty With (exp. bestbuy) and if it messes up, which sadly it does happen to some but is a little less common now, you can give it to them and they give you a new one. A used one can come with issues and maybe the warranty will not cover it because you did not purchase the product.

Answer 7

Depends on where or from who are you buying it from. You can go ahead and go to game stop or eb games they sell used systems which are in good condition, but there is no much difference in price between a new one and a used one, I would buy a new one but its up to you, Im just giving you a sugestion.
