Broken PS2 and XBox

[rethcir.livejournal.com]

I have a broken PS2 (Disc Read Error) and a broken original Xbox (I think it's the DVD drive, it clicks and freezes at the green splash screen). I'm sure they could be repaired or parted by an experience flipper - I just don't really want to spend the time. Would anyone like to barter for them? The PS2 would be the unit only, the Xbox I also have a number of controllers and the assorted cables that I'm willing to let go.

I got slightly screwed by someone on ebay and don't really feel like posting a duplicate auction for 'em. Haven't tried Craigslist yet but I figured I might stay "hyperlocal" if possible. Please reply if you're interested!

is the ebay auction page still online?

if the "slightly screwed" involves no mention of their non-working condition or the words "as is", and it was shipped via the USPS, you could sue for mail fraud! fun!

Well, I got my auction fee back. Allegedly what happened is the guy got his account hacked, and the malicious person started betting on things willy-nilly. Luckily I wasn't dumb enough to send before getting payment. I then offered second-chance to the next highest bidder, they accepted, and hten never paid. I don't think it's a good idea to post it yet again in case someone looks at my history and sees that I posted it twice already, it is awful suspicious.
