I bought another refurbished console from dkoldies, and this time I went with an Original Xbox console. But it was $260?? For that price, I'm hoping this refurbished OG Xbox from DKOldies is in very, very nice condition... but we'll see. Let me know what you think about this refurbished OG Xbox from DKOldies!

The worst offender of this is the backwards compatible PS3. The first 4 PS3 models (especially the first 2), are very rare due to being able to play PS2 games. The first 2 models actually have the PS2 CPU and GPU on the motherboard, but the later models have only the GPU. The cheapest one they sell is 500 dollars, and the most expensive one is 800 dollars. Not only do they not replace the thermal paste (despite the BC PS3s having awful overheating issues!), these early models suffer from GPU failure similar to what the Xbox 360 RROD suffered from. A good fix is by swapping the GPU with one from the slim models (60nm or 45nm). This repair costs 600 dollars (only 1 person does this in the US) and will make the console last for possibly a decade with proper care. It’s a better deal to buy a broken backwards compatible console for like 70 dollars and get it repaired, than it is to buy a PS3 from DKoldies.

$260 for an og xbox is just insane and the whole "Its a business they need to make money" thing just doesn't fly when game stores with more expenses sell for less. Just last month I picked up an og xbox for $100 with an oem controller. Not only that but the few times I bought from Dkoldies due to them being the only one with a certain game and happening to not be wildly overpriced on that item the quality has consistently been poor to the point of not even bothering to check if a disc was nearly cracked in half.

I was only ASKING $150, but within an HOUR I'd received nearly a DOZEN offers on a local 'craigslist' type used item selling website! However my original XBOX with a professionally installed XBMC mod chip didn't get NEARLY as much attention...

@@Assassin-ys5vw bro I’m not enacting a law that says you are forbidden from shopping anywhere other than DKOldies. Chill. I like competition in the marketplace also. Clearly DK is a highly successful store for a reason, he’s good at marketing and we live in an untethered late stage capitalism; he can charge as much as he wants and purchase other competing franchises without punishment. I would not have it this way in my ideal form of government. & For the record I’ve never shopped from his store😂 my point is a lot of these people in the comments are probably under 21 and don’t know what it’s like trying to run a retail store in this day and age with a targeted demographic like 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck. It’s hard to live off $10 of profit when taxes, employees, insurance, and supplies. I pay $1,600 a month in rent and I would never look to selling retro titles for a career that keeps a roof over my head in Southern California…

For $260, I'd expect new paste, new capacitors on the motherboard and PSU as well as a new drive belt, especially when you consider they probably paid pennies on the dollar for this thing. You know they're going around and buying bulk lots for cheap or giving people garbage pay for their trade-ins. Considering the layer of dust he found, it looks like they open the top, blow some canned air in there, seal it up with a warranty sticker and take two minutes on the shell with a magic eraser. Lazy as hell and hardly "Refurbished".

I have the DVD remote and sensor. component cable option. never thought I could get 260.00 for it. On top of it, mine is super clean. I feel that price was a bit high. I hope you could get some back.

I paid $85 including shipping for my OG because the disc drive was stuck closed. All it needed was a rubber band cleaning. Came with Halo & Halo 2, Forza Motorsport, 2 controllers, the DVD remote and adapter- was a very late model as well, late 2005, so no longevity issues yet. eBay and small local stores are the only choice if you're someone who cares about retro collecting.

I have an old crystal green Halo edition X-Box and I worry about the capacitor for the clock going bad & the old & dry thermal paste but I'm not sure what to do about it, since nobody in my area fixes these things and I'm not sure I can afford to send it out for repairs, and if I could are they trustworthy & will I get my emerald crystal X-Box back in working condition? Or if I get it back, will it be the Console I sent in or will it be a generic Blck X-Box? I've stopped trusting sending out Consoles for repair when I sent out a limited edition and got back a generic edition and there was nothing I could do about it. I like my OG emerald crystal Halo ed X-Box, but I know I need to get it checked out but I don't know where to do that and I don't know if I can afford it? And I worry about what would happen in transit or at the shop? Its a conundrum.

$260?! I got mine 3 years ago from a Goodwill Outlet, for $5. A first launch model from October 2001. The case was unopened, so the first thing I did was dust it out, snip the clock capacitor, test the disc drive (surprisingly functional), and modchip it. Next day I somehow managed to find not just a slightly battered but serviceable AV cable (which not being connected led to the orange ring warning), and just after I ordered a slim controller knockoff, found a Duke controller in near mint condition. Mods and peripherals combined brought that to about $50. Total cost after binge buying every Xbox disc I could find on a buy 2, get 1 free sale when they were already marked down to $2 each, maybe $20?
