    Game console prices (xbox 360 and Nintendo DS)

    Posted 27 Apr 08 7:54 am.

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anybody knows some information that I am after. I'm thinking about selling xbox 360's and nintendo DS lite. I was curious as to what is a good price to buy these? I'm not asking for suppliers, just prices.

    Also, what is the bare minimum price that somebody can sell them without it being a fake? Also, please state the currency.

    The reason I'm asking this is because I just received this offer below, and was wondering whether its good price, or if the price is too good to be true.

    Remarks?

    it's a scam, there is no way you can get all that for that price. And as for them saying it's authentic, there copy's. I myself can get these products from a reputable distributor, but not at those prices, scam mate, stay away.
    cheers

    Exactly what I thought. I got all these sellers from tradekey.com. Its amazing that I've had 3 sellers try and sell me nintendo DS lite for sub $100 including shipping. You would think if you are trying to scam sombody you would atleast you reasonable prices.

    I was curious as to what one of them said to me though. He said that I could pay by Western Union, but he can't receive the money unless he knows the senders name. So he said to pay with a friends account, and when I receive the goods I then tell him the sender name and he can get paid. Does this actually work?

    no that's part of the scam. You send the money to a third party which they work together, and he keeps the money and if your lucky they will send you some out of date product that's totally useless, or you don't recieve anything at all. Rather the latter one more likely. Anyway don't touch it, especially when they ask to be paid by western union. Here's a prime example of a scam website, have a look at these prices on there products, but don't buy it's a scam, link hidden

    But the way he told me did not involve a third party though. He said to use one of my friends Western Union account to send him the money. And he cannot receive that money until I tell him the senders name. Sounded like a little bit TOO much protection for the buyer there. So I said to him

    'what happens if i receive the items, and then tell WU that i never got them? By using this method, you stand to lose a lot of money because you can potentially be scammed. No smart seller would allow this method unless in fact it wasn't as safe and foolproof for me as you make it out of be.'

    At that point he accused ME of being a scammer, yet was still eager to do business with me, which i found very funny.

    But don't worry, there was no way that I was going to buy it anyway. Now back to my original questions...
    Nintendo DS Lite - What is a good wholesale price for these? And how cheap is too cheap?
