Hi everyone...

I am planning on buying a used 360 off craigslist.com and I was wondering how you can tell if the 360 was opened or not.

The seller claims he purchased an extended warranty, so that warranty would come along with the xbox if I purchase it. My main concern is whether or not he attempted to mod it, and if that's the case, that warranty would mean nothing.

Does anyone know how Microsoft can tell if its been opened?
Maybe a seal or sticker?
Hopefully its something I can see right away when I go and check out the 360.

Thanks!!!

There is a warranty sticker on the front, underneath the faceplate. The faceplate is supposed to come off, so just ask them to remove it.

Though if someone removed the sticker properly it would be hard to tell if it had been removed.

Unfortunately, there's no real way to tell until you get it in your hands. And then you'd still want to open the case and check everything out.

The warranty sticker can be removed and replaced.
