Some one offered to mod an XBOX for $115 inclusive of DVD Kit and mod chip. Geo force or something.

Is that a good deal ?
Show I mod the Xbox right away or wait and use it for some time before modding ?
 
hahaa no not a good deal. talk to batch71 (or me) /thread

edit: are you buying the xbox or just the mod service with the chip?
 
Someone offered to MOD his xbox for $110 not sell him one already done.

I would say yes it there were all the apps, emulators, and games that come with it. It still works as a stock box and who needs xbox live when you got KAI instead for free.
 
I typically charge $55 for a TSOP flash/HD upgrade. Or $75-$100 for a chip install. It all depends on the situation.

Price sounds sorta high to me imo.

All sounds good until the D0 goes up in smoke. My recommendation. SOFTMOD 🙂

you suck at solder.

soldering the D0 is easy. try cordoning it off with electrical tape. 😉
 
too expensive imo. My mod chip + installation only cost me $20. I believe there's a forum on xbox-scene.com where you can find someone local to mod your xbox for you, and there's a chance they don't charge as much.
 
that's way expensive ... check craigslist or xbox-scene, it's usually $60 including the chip. DVD kit is not worth imo ....

someone gave you a mod chip plus installed it for you for $20? You got a sweet deal.

When I got mine modded, I paid $90...$45 for the chip and $45 for the labor (included installation of the chip, loading of the BIOS and apps, and putting in a bigger hard drive I supplied). I haven't regretted it since 🙂

You dont need the DVD kit.
 
think about throwing in a bigger hard drive too. only necessary if you want to back up your games for faster loading times...etc.
otherwise, you can just stream, movies, pics, music from your computer.
 
I paid $20 for the modchip and installed it myself. Seems like a much cheaper alternative, if you know what you're doing.

Where do you get the mod chip ? If its simple I'll do it myself. I might as well get a additonal hard drive.

NO!, You suck at engrish and I own an SMT manufacturing business and Metcal Irons. I have fixed a ton of others botched mods. I am a fantastic solderer and my English is fantastic. You should be careful what words you let fly,and by the way. Softmod is the only way to fly. Cost=$0.00 and the end result is exactly that of a modchip. Hard disk access!! Why spend $20 or $25 and run the risk of damage when you don't have too.

Thanks for your comments.
