RROD

Alright thanks for the info guys. I think I am going to return my Elite and just get the 60GB 300$ xbox when it comes out with GTAIV or another good game with the 2 year replacement plan.
That way, I will feel much better that even if my Xbox does die on me, I will geta brand new Xbox rather than a fixed one from microsoft andI will have a game I will enjoy 10x more than my current games.

Not true. You get a brand new one. I even brought them the new one to the service desk to swap it out with. They do a one for one swap with the items you give them.
Can you keep your hard drive though?
The microsoft warranty covers the RROD for 3 years and normal damages for one year?
Also, if you get the RROD and they replace your Xbox 360 and your second Xbox gets the RROD will that also be replaced or not and will it also have the3 year warranty?
Xbox = $300 + 8.25% tax = $324.75
GTAIV = $60 + 8.25% tax = $64.95
product replacment plan = 70$?
So 460$ total. I think.
I think the Product Replacement Plan is 70-80$
But I am unsure if they replace it just once or you can replace it multiple times.
Yesterday I bought the Xbox Elite that came with Froza and Ultimate allaince for free. This purchase was $487.
I find out today that their will be a $50 price drop on the 60GB and Elite this Septemeber.
Should I return my Elite and buy the $300 60GB. Because it is cheaper, I will also buy the Product Replacement Plan from Best Buy (RROD protection) and GTA IV. All of this would cost me a little less than $480.
In the end it will be around the same price but the pros and cons are
Pros:
- 2 or 3 year Best Buy Product Replacement Plan so that instead of sending in the xbox 360 to Microsoft, Best Buy will replace it with a brand new one.
- I get a game I really wanted thats 10x better than forza and ultimate alliance = GTA IV
Cons:
- I downgrade from a 120Gb to 60GB harddrive.
- I get ugly white instead of beutiful Black Xbox. lol.
What you guys think?
I just bought my Elite yesterday from Best Buy...
do you know if the store will refund me the money difference or not if the price drop does happen?
