my friend bought it exactly 28 days ago, he got banned, he returned it, no questions asked, got 100% cash back at best buy.

but what if you bought your 360 about 4 months ago and got banned?

what would happen if you try to return it?

does it have 1 year warranty (no question asked)?

and if that doesn't work, what if you make your xbox rrod (on purpose, using towel trick and stuff) and return it?

will they just exchange it to a refurbished one or will they send it to MS then MS will find out yours is flashed and say 'screw you'?

Do you have a warranty? BB only has a 30 day return policy, if it breaks after that w/o a warranty then you are out of luck.

im just saying people need to man-up. if you got banned, take it like a man and buy a new console if you really need live.we all knew the risks we were taking when we did this so accept it and move on.if you wanna live the pirate life, you gotta accept the possibility of your ship being sunk :)

no point in manning up when you can just get a new xbox

if you really want to man up, buy your games and don't pirate them.
you telling other people to man up is like saying stealing is fine and murdering is bad because stealing is not as serious as murdering.
what an irony.

$300 for console
$50 a year for live
$60 a game

Free games here and there are not a bad thing

exist4u and gradeon: im not going to argue with you about morality. if you two think your entitled to get an unbanned console by committing retail fraud then more power to you.my point was simply that we all take risks doing this, and the majority of people will take it as a loss and move on.

thank you, captain obvious.
that was exactly my point.
i don't want to argue with you about morality.
all i wanted was informative answer to my questions.
all i wanted to find out was if someone tried to return a few months old xbox and was successful or not.
someone telling me to man up and attacking my morality/character was not the answer i was looking for.

Regardless of opinions, this is as bad as threads that discuss swapping the guts of consoles and conning stores that way, so thread closed.

If you got banned due to your own actions, it's your fault, not the retailer
