(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well I'm looking into buying an xbox 360 very soon, but I'm not sure about spending $300 on a slim just yet. Would it be a bad idea to get a refurbished xbox?

its a bad idea because the person who had it before obviously brought it back because it wasnt working

in my opinion i would never by refurbished elctronics because u never know what could happen its better to buy brand new and have full gurantee

Ace i was gonna get one at GameStop for $100.. Its a 360 Refurbished by them.. to me it seems worth it.. iono yet if i was gonna buy it..

if you ever buy a refurb xbox 360, buy a jasper xbox 360, i bought a refurbed arcade jasper console from ebay for $130, with 3 years xbox warranty. So i suggest you look for the Jasper model if you havent got the cash to buy a $300 console.
If you wanna know more, feel free to quote me for any questions, i love helping

just get a jtag of some sort

3 years and $130? Could you give me a link to what these 'Jasper' look like?
Sorry Im such a noob xD

you can find a jasper xbox 360 easily on ebay, i just got the three year warranty on luck, it was on sale for only $130, but the seller recently raised the price to $150 or $200.
You can find jasper xboxes by searching it up on ebay, if you ever come across a cheap one, try to get one with warranty sticker INTACT. Just in case it ever has any problems, but i doubt it.
To make sure you get a jasper xbox 360 console, look at the details and how many watts are on the power brick. 150 watts is the jasper console's watt of power brick.

Lets be straight theres nothing wrong with buying refurbished electronics it just means they've been fixed after manufacture. That said its pointless buying a refurbished xbox 360 due to them being so cheap these days. Personally i would see about getting a slim. I bought a slim a few weeks ago and its much better than my 1st generation xbox pro.
