XBOX-360

So an aquaintance dropped by last week , and hands me an XBOX 360 , still in the box.....and says can you fix it...I was like "What?"
His kid got the last Madden stuck in it , and couldn't get it to eject. Messed with it for like a week.
I told him I'd take a look at it..Well when I finally got around to it , the darned thing doesn't have ANY screws on the outside....it's put together fairly well. Anyhow , I told him that I'd probably have to break something to get it opened. To quote him..
"I don't care if you break it , I've already bought a new one. I just want the game back."

So this past weekend , I did my homework and figured out how to open the thing. And finally dissasembled it , and took the DVD drive out , and there were pretzle sticks in the gears that cause the laser lens to lower so the drive can eject. Anyhow , he came over last night and picked up the disk , and thanked me....
now what do I do? Do I keep it? (It needs a controller and a video cable?) He thinks it's broken and useless , and took the harddrive , and the controller for it. Or do I accept this as payment for retrieving his game. And say for about $100 bucks in accessories have myself a brand new 360?
 
Ask your friend, imo. It's his Xbox. Since he's purchased a new one, he'll likely tell you to keep it. Then you get to keep it with a clear head 🙂
 
I just wanted to see what others would do more than anything...😉..I'm going to start putting it all back together tonight , and call him and see what he wants to do with it.
 
Also do not tell him how you fixed it so the same person will shove pretzel sticks in the new X-Box 360 and damn you will have two of them LoL :laugh:
