Re: Microsoft Does Not Really Check For Stuff :D!

Im guessing this is what they do.

Recieve xbox and check for warranty integrity. If warranty sticker is of acceptable quality they send you a new xbox and put yours in the pile to be refurbished. The pile constantly rotates due to all the hardware failures. So they dont really have time to check the entire system. Just a quick swap.

They really don't check at all. As long as it has a warranty sticker, they'll replace it. Luckily I have about 7

When I flash my friend's 360s, I keep the stickers. haha. You have to hold a hairdryer to them for like 3 minutes, then they peel right off. Put it on Wax paper.

Don't worry they won't. I had a failed XClamp on my friend's 360. Sent it in, got one back no problems.
