Where to buy a new Xbox360 (from leb)

Flakk

Ok since my current xbox360 has failed me for 4th time.. i gave up on it and am gonna smash it with a sledghammer.... (its a 20gig core console from 2006)

So Now im thinking of getting a brand new xbox360 Elite.
anyone know where might i be able to get one with a fair price ?

i asked ricca and he told me 600$ :@
Gamestation : 520
a shop near my house (though i dont trust him) 480$

Anywhere else i can buy it from ?

Mega TSC (at city mall), virgin have the elite at about USD500. duty free at the airport has it also but i didnt check the price.

At ricca the 360 is modified to play modded games , and also wait for the new jasper 360 elite to be released (it is an elite with a new box and with 4 % yo have the red ring of death ) , i guess it will be priced like the ps3 slim 429 $ (at virgin) .

hey for all people who want to get a 360 make sure that it is JASPER !!!!! so you won't get the RROD anymore.
all none jasper 360 have this RROD issue even if falcon ones have a lower rate failure but you still have to get a jasper one.
plus put it horizontal not vertical ! vertical position will block a big air vent. and put it in a open place .

like this you can avoid rrod :P for falcon and jasper like i said don't have this issue anymore. with all other moddles it is just a matter of time.

and buy NTSC 360 to be able to find games it is true that most of the games are region free but all EA games and rocstar ones are NTSC, you wont find PAL here too bad so you should not got to geant or virgin. the best place in lebanon i think is NINO.
but before buying make him open the 360 so you can be sure it is a jasper one ! and if you can buy an elite one it will be better cause elite ones are better cooled

Why horizontal ? i heard its best to place it in a Vertical position in an open place.
and how can i be sure if its a jasper mobo or a falcon mobo ? any signs on the system itself ?

yea sure look at the back of the 360 where you put the power supply. Falcon models have 12V---14V and Jaspers 12V---12V, other than that it will be a very old model.
two reasons to put it horizontal: 1 - vertical will cause disk scratch and 2 - you will block the largest air vent at the bottom
