I got it today and packaged it up. It says that it has standard overnight shipping. Does this mean it will be at Microsoft 1 day after I bring it to a Fedex center? What is the shipping method do they use for the box I send to them?  Last edited by XxFaTaLxX LA; 08-19-2008 at 07:01 PM. | ||||||

But what really sucks is that they gave me a new box so now when im not on live i don't own any of my arcade games that i bought on my old box.

And it's being sent to Mcallen Texas, which is where I read that the new Opus boards are gonna be for replacement 360s. And is it possible for my RCA cable thing for my TV to get messed up whenever my 360 was messed up, because before it broke I seen dots that would go across the screen? | ||||||

It could be the solder balls under the graphics card or HANA chip or anything. If you saw dots before it broken, chances are that its got to do with something inside the 360. | ||||||

All they do is check to make sure the sticker is intact and has the error you sent it in for, then they authorize the replacement. Yours should be shipped Tomorrow or Monday. | ||||||

Hopefully I get it next week. Man I sure hope I don't get a refurbished 360 or a old 360/my 360. Hopefully I get one of those Opus things or a brand new 360. What do you guys think is my chance of getting a Opus? Is there anyway for me to know if I got a refurbished 360, my 360, or a brand new 360? Last edited by XxFaTaLxX LA; 08-22-2008 at 07:58 PM.
