So, what do they usually do? Send a new one, or repair the one you send in?

Microsoft has been screwing up alot lately. There have been stories of people who got their fixed consoles back about May and now in August they are getting sent an Xbox 360 even after they got their old one back...

They probably meant a free box to ship to you. Meaning a box to re-ship your Xbox into. :P

Dude,shut up.You asked for people's opinions and their giving them to you,but you insist on telling everyone that your sure your getting a new 360.The person on the phone probably just didn't feel like talking to you because I don't even feel like talking to you and its on a freaking forum.Your not getting a new 360,your getting a box that you pack your 360 in and then send it away.THEN you recieve a new 360 if they can't repair yours,or you get a refurbed one if I'm not mistaken.There's my freaking opinion,but I'm sure your gonna come on here and be like,"Oh no,they said I'm getting a new 360,so I'm getting one!".News Flash!Microsoft can say anything they want just to make you happy!I'd be saying this stuff too if the company I was working for was taking a billion dollar loss over a worldwide system failure problem.

scooter, just let it go there ain't no point, he is just going to keep saying it

Gomez619, wait to see what happens and if you get the 360 (be honest about it) then let us know, and if not then let us know, hope the best and you actually do get one cuz that would be sweet

No. He still has his broken xbox at his house. And they're sending him another one...then he can just send back his broken one, and get that one back to. Leaving him with 2 360's for the price of one.

not in Canada, in Canada its law that they send you a new unit

it wont be a new one.. IF they send you another 360 it will just be a refurbished one not a brand new one.

Wow,your a bigger noob than I thought and you proved my point.I said you would be like "OH NO,THE BIG SMART MICROSOFT EMPLOYEE TOLD ME I WAS GETTING A NEW 360".STFU you POS retard.Nobody gives a $Hit whether you get a new one or not.You asked for peoples opinions and they give them to you and you don't give a rats @$$.Your acting like a 10 year old,which btw,its against GS's terms of use or whatever to be that age and have an account here.So gtfo of here because no one is going to listen to you anymore because you won't listen to anyone else!Scooter540

Damn, scooter, that's a lot of hostility over an excited kid. What's wrong, are you jealous? You think it is completely impossible that they could make a mistake like that? I hope he does get a free one just to shut you up.
