I bought a cheap computer case for 12€ on ebay, turns out there was a 4x blue ray burner installed =)

Update on the broken 32" LCD i got for free:

Indeed the inverter board was broken, some brown heatspots on the back of the board. Bought one for 50€ and waited anxiously for it to ship from the UK, just got it, installed it and ... it works! :dance:

If you ever get the chance to get a LCD whose backlight goes on just for a second, go for it!

Got XBOX 360 that suffered from the RROD for free, fix it in a few hours running perfectly. :D

**hrahn** · 10-04-2011

just won an auction for a complete Steel Battalion LOC, box has been opened but the stick has never been used, still in its original shrinkwrap. Unter 150€ shipped, that might not be a steal, but just take a look for what these things are currently going! I soooo wanted to play that game when it came out, and now I will hook my Xbox up to my projector and sound system and celebrate it in all its glory!

For a Mech freak like me this is a dream come true!

**ThetaSigma** · 10-09-2011

Just a quick question, where/how can I get the old consoles for cheap ?
Any tips?
It looks like, that I don't have luck.

Thanks!

Ebay, local shops, yard sales or almost any event that has people selling anything used at all :P

Grabbed a like new 80GB PS3 boxed with Bad Company 2, Black Ops, Modern Warfare 2, Episodes from Liberty City, Wipeout HD, two Dual Shocks, two headsets and all cables for only £100.

Not a miracle but definitely a good deal.

Retail deal or from a person, might finally be my time to get me a blu-ray player, would probably make half of the money back by selling the controllers.

Got a Samsung LN26A450C1DXZA (26'', 720p) for free. Friend was throwing it out because it wouldn't turn on and got a new TV in the meantime. Opened it up and all it needs is a new cap.

**WarRen22** · 10-13-2011

Got a gamecbue fully functional in a flea market for 7 USD.!

From one on my brothers friends. Felt bad taking it from him but that's all he wanted.

Just took all of the games and traded them in for stuff I needed to catch up on.

Got an xbox 1 debug kit on ebay for 150. Im ok with that price amusing its real. He says he tried a disc in it which kind if scares me because i'm doubting he used a debug disc. Hopefully not just a retail in a debug shell...not a miracle deal but the price is right for me :p

Was it opened? and 150 what? Dollars is a good price for it I think, Pounds... eh depends if the postage was included.

**kl0wn** · 10-13-2011

It looked closed, no holes in the stickers but no idea if they were heated off or anything. It has the "contract voided if opened" on the bottom or something, I do not have it yet.

And sorry, yes USD.

**Dark Seraph91** · 10-13-2011

Ok, it finally arrived. It has Forza debug on it, please tell me this is rare? :P Does anyone have more information on this? I've accessed the debug menu in game. The Xbox is locked via Xbox Neighborhood but I'm guessing I can get ways around that. Is this a common debug game?

It has ForzaFinal.xbe,forzartx.xbe,ForzaDebug.xbe,ForzaPe rfRelease.xbe and update.xbe (in forza dir)

Also, the framerate seems HORRIBLE!

Another edit, it seems like sometimes the debug menu is impossible to close.
Edit again, somehow I accessed it again while it seemed impossible.
