They check it and your not going to get a lot of credit in return.

Please consider trading in the roof over your head instead. The 360 is.

You wont get much for it. Do yourself a favour and put an ad on Kijiji or try selling it to a friend.

Seriously.. you're on your 9th? Well i would keep it since the 360s are reliable now (because of the Jasper chip), if not they're atleast getting more reliable. You won't get much money for it anyway, especially if you plan on trading for a ps3.

Smart man. But don't sell the stuff at Gamestop/EB Games. You'll get ripped off big time. Sell it on Amazon or Ebay.

Probably. Either that or he takes really bad care of his consoles, in which case a ps3 will not help him.

Or he's legit and just has bad luck with systems.

Considering i've only had to send it in once, bad luck would be sending it in 3 or 4 times in my book; but 9 times??? (or maybe he said he's on his 9th, w/e)

I'm just saying it's more likely that he's not taking all the steps for proper system ventilation (i.e. leaving in on carpet/rug, enclosed in a tight space), or maybe he has or had one of those fan adaptors that sapped all the power from the console.

Just recently Traded my pro 20gb xbox 360 that had the 3 rings of death. I would have gotten $44 in cash but I got about $62 in store credit and had a mini shopping spree.

Seriously, you have the worst luck ever or your lieing. My first PS3 broke the night I got MGS4 so you will have at least 4 of them. I have had 2 360s, but I still cant believe you had 9.

It's actually not exactly rare.. I have had 13 die and know other people with over 10. The 360 just has bad hardware.
