I have a play n trade in my area (according to google maps) I think i'll check it out, as I got a few people looking to buy an online console and keep their banned one for any and all backups...

I think I'm going to give gamestop a try anyway. I don't have the Play N Trade anywhere near me. I'm just going to tell them I'm checking if it's banned as soon as I get home, and if it is it's coming straight back.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake,
you just keep on trying 'till you run out of cake.

Dont knock pawn shops, i have a great pawn shop in my area. I bought my first 360 3yrs ago from there for $50 bucks they said it had problems with dvds but it was sealed and under warranty. When i took it home i plug it up and get what it worked fine for over 2 yrs then started freezing so it sent it in and they repaired it and it still kickin ti this day.. Dont knock Pawn Shops.

yea some do try to rip you off. I got alot of my gaming stuff from pawnshops sometime they dont know what they have and you can take advantage of it. I got 2 360 wireless controllers for $5 once, ps3 ds3 controllers for $20. You can fine some gems in pawnshops.
