Is this a good deal?

http://nashville.craigslist.org/vgm/4930475896.html

X box one day one edition in orginal box...includes kinect and HDMI cable. Day one controller. . All power cables included and paperwork.

Please see photos for details.
$250.00
Only serious buyers, no trade, cash sale only

I think a new Xbone with the kinect cost $399 or so. I guess it's a decent price.
It all really comes down to if you want it or not.

It's a good deal, but I'd wonder why such a good deal. If you can hook it up, put in your live account and mess around with some games on it then maybe.

If it's an "as is" then it might be bricked or banned or some such.

I want to take a look into but I need to get my laptop fixed rather than blowing money on this One. I think I may wait until next week to see if he/she still has it.

I like my xb1 quite a bit, it's a solid system, but this is like almost 50% off. I'd have to wonder why that's the case. Either they need money asap, it's stolen, or it's not working right in some way or another.

Otherwise they could get pretty much that much at Gamestop... which is pretty much the bargain basement price you would get for any trade in.

Gamestop doesn't offer cash though. This might be someone trying to unload the console to get some quick cash.

Yeah, hence the asap reference.
But it's pretty easy to trade in for store credit and sell it if they want.

But still, a preowned system sells at Gamestop with no kinect for $320, and with kinect for a fair bit more than that.

Are the Day 1 Editions worth more atm or not? I thought they were limited edition, launch machines. Would of thought it would be worth more than a standard machine.

There's really not much special about them. They have day one inscribed on the console and controller and came with a year of live (which is gone now I'd assume for a used console).

So while it might be worth a little bit more, it's not going to be quite as desired as a special edition with a much more distinct look.

It's gone now.

I could see these units going for thousands in years to come - idiots with more money than sense will lap them up purely because it's "special".

Maybe, but doubtful. The white version that was given to a few people at launch I could certainly see going for that much however.
