c0rian bargain hunt: Xbox Edition [Help Please]

I need to find a regular Xbox, and I'm shocked to find that they're still running between $80 and $100 bucks used at stores.

Most of the eBay items that are marked "Buy it Now" are right around that price too - do any of you have any leads on where I could maybe pick one up cheap?

you might be able to have mine for like, $50. Maybe a little more, who cares.

I'd give you $50 + shipping costs, no problem.

I want to build a toy for my birthday.

I'll give you mine for free, but you have to take it (the Xbox) in the ass to get it.

Does it still work/have the hard drive? Also, does it have the HUGE controller?

As long as it works and has a hard drive, I think it'll serve my needs.

For a used original Xbox?

No way. Way too much money.

I need it to work though, and I don't think I'm handy enough to fix one.

Yah, and it comes with I think two huge controllers. Works fine. I use it to play dvds, but I never really have time to watch dvds any more and if I do I can just buy one of those $20 dvd players from Target or whatever.

The xbox works jim-dandy though. Never used it that much.

Well, if you want to sell it - I'd probably take it (though going and getting some new controllers will be imperative!). Let me know

Yup - you just go on believing that, and I'll let you know how happy I am with mine when everything is said and done, and then maybe you can save up, purchase yourself a clue, and GTFI!

old controller > smaller new controller.

Takes a bit of getting used to. Makes me want to eat copious amounts of delectable pastries.
