Failed modchip attempt?
Get a little crazy with a Dremel?
Hard drive go bad?
Fried power supply?

Depends on whats wrong with it. What do you mean by "Broken but working"?

You can get them online for about $4.00 from most console repair shops. That gets you every torx that goes in any version Xbox.

*bump*

My offer is $50.00 US dollars that's $40.00 plus $10.00 shipping for any Xbox (even failed mod attempts are accepted), Consoles with Red-Green/Orange-Green Flashing LED,  "Your Xbox requires service please contact customer support",  Xbox with Dirty Disk Error message or other DVD related problems. 

My offer is $85.00  US dollars that's $75.00 plus $10.00 shipping for any Xbox that is in perfect working condition.  Not ones that work sometimes... perfect working condition.  If you have to ask if it qualifies, it doesn't.

I take just about any Xbox, just give me a good description (better with pics), I have not turned anyone down yet.  Just send me a pm or email with details of whats wrong with it, and I will reply with instructions on how to get it to me.

I got one for free the other day.

Had the green then red flashing error.

Somehow the eeprom got scrambled.

Took me a while to figure out how to embed a good eeprom image into a bios, then restore a good one to the board.

Do you resell the ones you fix?
(I've got 5 in the house at the moment, I use them for XBMC, don't play many games on them)

Later,

My offer is still $85.00 US dollars ($75.00 plus $10.00 shipping) for a normal working xbox. I'll pay $100 for a FULLY FUNCTIONAL modded one. If you tried modding it and it doesnt work, then it falls under the $50 category.

If the Xbox has everyting included (HDD, Mobo/Daughterboard, DVD, case, EM shield, drive carriers, cables, ports, PS) Then I'll pay $50 for it. If you only have a few parts left, PM me and we'll see what we can come up with.
