does it make sense to ship a 360 via skybox?
« on: April 05, 2009, 03:50:34 PM »

yeah,

so i am looking for a 360
specifically, an Arcade unit with the supposedly RROD proof Jasper board
amazon supposedly has them, so my question is how much would it cost to bring in a console via skybox? is it worth it?

or should i try to get one here (was in gulf yest, and not one was to be seen. just wiis and ps3s)

don't know anyone comin in soon, so these are my two choices for the while.

If the frequency of failure remains low it won't become a statistic XD

Yeah I will wait for a year and see. Don't really want to take another chance after all those problems in the past.
