I have been waiting a fucking week for the box to show up to ship my 360 to them and I still don't have it. I have a tracking number, but I don't have one for the box they shipped to me. Fucking pisses me off.

The guy tells me it will be $100 to fix the 360 and that includes shipping and handling. Fuck, Microsoft can spend $50 million on exclusive GT4 episodes, but can't spare that few extra $'s for overnight shipment?

Another thing was I was getting 2 red lights on my box. I have had it for a year and a half. I have gotten the red lights twice the entire time I have owned it. I e-mailed Microsoft and they said it was overheating. I have my 360 setting above an airconditioning vent with constant cold air blowing on it. It is sitting by a window with nothing blocking any of the heat vents.
I have gotten the red lights just from playing my 360 for only 15 mins.

I am selling this fucker when it gets fixed and getting the elite.

Keep calling them. They did not do shit for mine until I called them and complained to them about why it was taking so long to send it back. At least they do it for free.

Not mine. $100 because it wasn't a 3 red light problem and mine wasn't covered by the warranty.

I called on Sun and I received the e-mail saying they shipped a box to me. I am suppose to put my 360 in that box and send it back to Microsoft. I have waited 1 week and still no fucking box to ship.

You should just trash it then and buy the Elite.

Or better yet I will sell you mine for 150 and I will buy the elite.

I am going to sell this 360 after it is fixed. I won it at a tourney, so I shouldn't be that pissed off for being free. I am going to sell it for $250 when it is fixed and get the Elite. I can transfer all the data from my current 360 to the Elite, but Microsoft has to send you a cord after you register the Elite.

You can switch the HDs until you get the cord.

Here's the update. I called Microsoft again today. They fucked up my information. They shipped the box somewhere else. It will be another fucking week until I can even ship my 360 to them. I was on the phone for 30 mins until they finally resolved this fucking problem.

Fuck it. I am going to get an Elite tonight and sell this 360 when I get it back. Anyone want a 20 gig 360 with a 1 year warranty and new disc drive for $250?

ahhh! all this shit really makes me think about getting the 360. I know for a fact that it's the system I want and I hope that the elite isnt plagued by all these issues but fuck man I'm starting to get worried.

No problems with my Elite. I just got it Sat., though. I really like it. Really nice design, feels different from the white 360.

Not yet. I am going to this weekend. Been working too many fucking hours.

But I have another update on my situation. Microsoft called me yesterday and asked for my shipping address, again. I told him this is the 3rd time that this was suppose to be shipped, but he said that the box is ready to be shipped out now. He also said that Microsoft is monitoring this situation involving me. My ass they are.
