I'm just wondering if they send you the same 360 just fixed or if they send you a brand new one. Also my friend told me that the 360s made during the first year after release are more likely to continue to get RROD... is this true?
They will have a note in the box when you get yours back saying if it is a refurbished one or not, most likely it is not the one you sent but a refurbished one. Also my friend has one from launch day and he has not had any problems I got mine in 06 and have gone trough 3 since then.
I got the same one, only repaired. I think it depends on the seriousness of the situation. If your friend means that the launch 360's are more likely to get hardware failure, in my experience it's not the case. All my friends got their's on launch and have had zero problems and i got mine about a year after and got RROD. I've heard that they are more likely to, though. :)
my friend said when he got his back it was a refurbished one and it was all scratched up. it broke 2 months later. when i get mine back it better be a brand new one!
I Work in a pawn shop, we have sent alot of 360's back to M$ for repair, we have only had 1 refurb sent back out of about 50. Most of the returns had had the motherboard replaced. Never had a new one :(
