RROD, Xbox 360 Price.
« on: February 16, 2011, 08:30:35 AM »
I was Thinking of buying a Rrod Xbox 360 Elite with Everything. For £25 of Ebay. Is it worth it. I meen I have never fixed a Xbox or opened one but I get the hang of it. It has three rings. Is it worth buying it, is it a Bargain? Is fixing the Xbox Guaranteed.

he means that it's entirely possible that the clamp kit won't fix your problem and if you do the x-clamp fix and it doesn't fix the RROD then at that point it's almost not worth it to spend the money to fix. $50 for the broken console + ~$10 for the X-clamp fix + $50 for the rework/reball puts you at $110 at least, more if your clamp fix costs more or the repair center charges more for the rework/reball...  $110 for a repaired unit vs. $199 for a brand new one...

at 25 euro, or like 30$ I would buy it regardless. the case can be sold for 15, the fan for 5, the cables for 5 heat sinc for 5 etc.

I would say buy it just so you have something to mess around with and practice with. IF you do the xclamp "fix" it might work for about a week or two. Then after that it would need a reflow or reball. When i used to do reballs for people, i would charge $75 and i would charge $40 for a reflow and 12v fan mod. So if you dont have the equipment to get it to 100% working condition then its only gonna be good for practicing with and using it to find different voltage spots and maybe parts. Overall, i would say buy it.
