but.. oh well, its the internet.
Is it possible to legally buy a pre-flashed 360 anywhere?
Id possibly be interested in rebuying a 360 now its so easy to play hookie games on.
I sold my first because Gears Of Hype failed to carry me to the promised land and drown me in a sea of blonde virgins.

LINK to Harware Schmeide
I think they speak english so my best bet would be to call them and simply ask about shipping and stuff. I bought mine there and absolutly no prob.
Adress:
Die HardwareSchmiede
Hintere Flachsmarktstr. 2
55116 Mainz
Opening times: Mo.-Fr. 10-18.30 / Sa. 10-16
Phone: 0049 61 31 / 2 18 25 25
EDIT:
Shipping cost in the EU up to 30 kg 18 EUR.
Over 30 kg will be calculated depending on the work required.
So...
Arcade version flashed 244+18=262 Euro.
Premium version flashed (20Gig HD) 299.90 +18= 317.90 Euro.
Elite version flashed (120Gig HD) 409,90+18=427,90 Euro.

at www.qxl.no (very similar to ebay) some people live by flashing 360s...
also a lot of people who sell flashed 360s. Its not illegal to sell flashed 360s.. some people might just burn backups  |
Exactly...that's how the law woks in Germany, or at least I think so  |

Lol thanks but 289,- for a core system is way to much considering its 200,- in shops. Any clue to wich one i can buy without much hassle of flashing it. |
well u paying for flash job and 2 years guarantee it's same price as in germany, if u want cheap get core/arcade and flash yourself or pay someone to get job done if u never did it before, u can also get preflashed ones from markplaats
u can pretty much flash any drive except for those which require soldering[hitachi m79 i believe]
samsungs probably easiest to flash, but they are very rare |
Yes i want to do it cheap but how do i know wich unit has what drive in it, i dont wanna buy one that is hitachi or something and that i have to solder, i wanna be able to flash it without modifying/soldering the hardware in any way.
