Original Xbox Deals on Craigslist - help me choose

Post by molotovwars »

So, I looked through all of the listings for an original Xbox in the Baltimore area, and I've narrowed it down to three that I'm now going to choose from. Keep in mind, an original xbox can be bought for $80 at gamestop and probably cheaper on ebay.

The first one has a nice modchip, a 180gb hd, and four wired controllers, dvd remote, and all the cables - see details here

Second one has all of the original packaging. it includes 3 controllers (i'm hoping official s-controllers) and the dvd remote along with 10 games all of which are games I'd actually keep. view the details here: http://baltimore.craigslist.org/ele/592413248.html

Third choice has 2 S-controllers and 2 wireless logitech controllers and the games it comes with are okay, price might be a little high.

Let me know which one you think is the best package and what you'd offer for it. I'm thinking of an offer of $130 for either option 1 or option 2, and have emailed each seller to make sure they still have them. The third choice is kind of eh, and is unlikely i'll get it (i'd make a lower offer), but 4 controllers are nice and i've heard good about the logitech controllers (what would you offer for option 3?)

Thanks for looking and helping me out - I gotta fill in the gaps from last generation.

Also #1 , for the HD already installed too bad no original games. Tell the other guys to see if they sell you some of the games in a bundle without the xbox.

Just a couple of days ago was wondering to buy a wireless logitech for ps2 but had a bad experience with a wired one. A friend bought a refurbished one and has worked great for a few years. Now i'm wondering to get one for ps2 and one for xbox.
