Will it work?? Is both xbox (it has an evox chip in it) and gcn added together cheaper than the 360?
p.s. GCN=gamecube
If I insult you...don't get offended...my insults are "friendly insults"...I know this sounds stupid (ridiculous) but I am fet up of writing, "no offense" in my posts...
My Comp: (will add specs later)

For just the consoles you wont get anything good trading them in. I would try ebay. For just the consoles alone, you may get 50 for the GCN and 120 or so for the xbox. Well short of the 360

dude, you cant sell an xbox to a gamestop with a chip in it, you could have a lawsuit on you hands, for tampering with the merchendise and then selling it back. Happened to one of my buddies.

You can't sell consoles on ebay either with modchips in them.

Im pretty sure you can, as long as you make it known to all buyers that this system is modded, and there arent any pirated games on there, it should be good.

Ebay will pull the auction if you let it be known you are selling a modified console even without any pirated games. It's happened to me more than once and to plenty of other people as well. You used to be able to sell them, but not any more. If you check you'll see it's against their TOS. It has something to do with violating copyright protect laws by circumventing copyright protection software. Try to find a modded Xbox that's not a case mod on there right now. Even if you do find one I can guarantee it won't last 7 days.

They won't take it down if it's not mentioned in the description. You tell the buyers to email you about the full details of it and say that you can't post it do to ebay policy. Then they will pm you and you can tell them that way. Also found out that if you just put xbox or ps2 as a title and nothing else, ebay won't even bother looking at the description because the title doesn't say anything about a modchip or any other illegal things, they'll just think your selling an xbox and that's it. That works really well also

xbox 360 premium edtion with vga/hd hook up to my dell 20.1 inch widescreen lcd.

I'll take this down WHEN micro$oft decides to stop being lazy and make the capcom fighting games backwards compatible with the 360 dammit!!!

The only way to sell it is not to mention it at all in the ad. Any hint and someone will contact someone and the auction will be pulled. BTW you don't know who you are PMing. They may say sell it to me now for this price and if you don't they can just report you and your auction is pulled. Think it can't happen? It can. Lastly enough modded Xboxes have been sold on ebay for them to know what "email me for details" means.

Ebay has only been taking this hardline approach since the start of this year. If it's been in that time you have been lucky, but you did get one pulled. I'm guessing MS and Sony threatened them with legal action if they didn't clean things up. Modded consoles were all over that site just 6 months ago. I still like ioffer. You can pretty much buy anything and I do mean anything on there. My real point in all this is the suggestion for him to sell his modded Xbox on Ebay isn't the greatest since it's A LOT of hassle to even get away with it.

store policy? dude they don't care, sometimes they might want to buy one themselves. or u could put an ad in the paper in the classifieds, or just do that whole little picture added w/ the flap of paper on the bottom in stores.
just don't put an address, and use a cellphone or something (if u do either of the ads)
or if ur town has a pc mod shop u could try there, or some sort of a game-center.
