can i buy any xbox 360 replacement dvd drive off of ebay

does it matter which 360 i have or which dvd drive i buy

you can use any drive just make sure you spoof it using jungle flasher, most people like BenQ but I myself like Lite-On

good i was looking for a good deal on ebay
a whole system with controller and all cables
i only flash sammy i was having to search ebay
with "360 samsung" and hope i can get a good deal
i would see 1 or 2 whole system the rest were just the drive

now i just bought a non hdmi 360 with 1 controller power supply and a/v cable
got it $81 plus $15 shipping = $96
I dont know if its a sammy so if its not i will just buy a sammy and sell what ever kind it is on ebay

$96 is ok price for what i got but last week
i got non hdmi with 1 controller, a cooling fan, a 20gb hard drive,
power supply and a/v cable for $87+$15=$102

thanks now i know for sure when it gets here i am not out much doe

i sell them on craigslist

i would have sold my 360 today to someone but

i tried to play marvel vs capcom 2(saved on my 360 hard drive) on a different 360 and when i went online it told me that the game was just demo and i needed to pay to activate it


i am not trying to get something for free here just want to play what i paid for with out paying for it twice

is there something that i dont know

[showstopper]

I thought marketplace games are tied to the xbox live profile rather than the console. It may say that you need to pay but when you get to the confirm screen it should say this will cost you 0 MS Points.

[clay.r.08]

i did that and it said 1200 points

Bad times.
So you have recovered your live profile on the other box (your signed in) and it still wants to charge?

Maybe its changed now.

im sure it just let me sign in without having to recover gamer tag

but i wonder if i use the recover option if it will do anything

i'll give it a try when the 360 i just bought gets here

Thats why.
You need to recover profile on the new box and sign in. Then you can download it again for free.

i called xbox live and they said i need to give them both of the boxes id numbers (in the menu) and they can transfer the game license to my new box they said i can do this on computer at xbox.com to

maybe the person answering the phone was not the most intelligent but i think if it was not possible in one way or the other she would of told me

[hjvp]

Yes... you can do this on computer at Xbox.com - There is a way to transfer...
I did the same with my systems... Just look at Xbox.com
