hey folks i've got some noobie questions and i'd really appreciate your answers. I'm planning to buy a 360 from one of my local stores but they're asking for 40 bucks (euro) more for the ones with the "jasper" board. is there any difference that worth the price between falcon and jasper models? I know jasper boards have kinda "less" heating issues but is this really worth it?? seriously??

They should not be asking for more money for the jasper boards. I picked up another Arcade 360 a bit ago and it was a jasper, was the same price as the other ones to.

They're scamming people. Go somewhere else and get an Xbox 360.

So, it's used? Either way the price shouldn't be bumped up like that. Microsoft aren't charging more for the new jasper chipsets... To answer your question "is it worth it?" No.

no, i would say get the price down because it should be $40 more then a regular unit. tell them to lower it or ur going to find somewhere else to buy the console.
