Dead Xbox 360 Auction, Dog Owners Preferred

Kotaku AU

xbox-360-dog-leashWhat do you do with your Xbox 360 once it’s red-ringed itself? You could get it repaired, I suppose, but what if it’s out of warranty? You could sell it as a dog tie-out.

Up on eBay right now is an auction for a red-ringed 360. The seller asks: Why pay $300+ for a new XBOX 360 that CAN ONLY play games?

Why indeed, when it has so many other potential uses. Such as:

- Door Stop
- Novelty Key Chain
- Book Stand
- Chopping Board
- Car/Bike Stand
- Paper Weight
- Game Console Stand
- Dog Tie-Out
- Childrens High Chair
- Ironing Board
- Bike Ramp

Check out the full listing and several other comedy photos at the link below. It’s only $15, but there’s still four days to go!

    bah i remember when mine 2 ringed with that goddamn error 74. it was 2 months out of warranty so i tossed it for a new one, all just a month before Microsoft acknowledged that error 74 should fall under the same extended warranty as 3 rings.

    Am I really confused or didnt Microsoft decide to offer lifetime warranty on Red Rings after that big case.
    This is what I was told last time I got mine serviced.. :S

      Nah, it was 3 years last I heard, that was right after the case finished. Maybe they changed it, but I wouldn’t see MS doing that.
