I like the site though. It is nice and bright....good colors and some good writing skills. I give it a A+ for presentation. Also you buy old systems in pawn shops. Not Gamestops. _________________

Not here you dont Reb, our pawnshops seem to think if they can buy it for 5 bucks then its worth 40 bucks.
The games in a pawnshop here are still like no less then 20 bucks no matter what crap game it is.

Wow I didnt know that about your pawn shops. Down here all you gotta do with these guys is what I call the walk. What I do is is ask them how much they can really sell that xbox for and they tell me like such and such and then I tell them what I am willing to pay for it and they say they can't do that and I say okay and start doing the walk towards that exit. They always call me back and take the price I wanted. They would rather get rid of it then have it sit on the shelf. But that is down here. It also helps to have cowboy boots,cowboy hat and a big belt buckle on with a dip of redman in your cheek. Then you a cowboy! _________________

Over here the pawn shops dont have video game consoles, they dont take them from some reason. _________________

I've got to say, something about that site looks a bit too good to be true. FinalCloud's rule of the world says if something looks too good to be true, it usually is!
I think I'd be safer buying my Xbox's from the raincoat of a suspicious character in a back alley, using unmarked bills in a brown paper envelope!
Ahhh, good old Bob, has all the best stuff, and so cheap too.....crazy!

wes is right our pawn shops here are crap we have two in town and the guy who used to run one of them now owns the competition shop,there both are crooks when it comes to video game shit but u can haggle the hell out of them on some stuff plus it depends on how well they like you and how much mojo you spened in there stores. i stay away from them.like wes said game stop is the way to go, hell i driven an hour to the next major city to get stuff that the local ones did not have.
