Thanks HD-DVD, I made $$ - Blu-ray Forum

bignickdawg · 03-24-2008, 01:54 PM

I bought the HD-DVD add on for xbox360 w/ 7 free HD-DVDs for $130 and made money on the deal. I sold all the free HD-DVDs for an average of $15, sold the player today

$130
-$105 (sold HDdvds)
-$40 (sold Player)
-$20 (sold both Xbox remotes)
-$50 (Best buy gift card coming)
---------
I'm up $85

Although I still have a few HD-dvds that I haven't sold yet.

I am almost at the break even point. I didnt sell any of my movies though =)

1) Xbox360 Kong pack = $180 spent, includes Heroes, Matrix Ultimate, smallville S6
2) Sell 360 Kong pack for $140 =$40 spent
3) Buy HD-A2 for $100 =$140 spent, Includes 5 free movies
4) Return unit to Circuit City 6 monts later -$100 = $40
5) Buy Open box HD-A20 at CC for $35 = $75 spent
6) Best Buy $50 giftcard refund =$25 spent.

Haha, $25 for the HD-A20(1080p), Matrix ultimate(5discs), smallville(6), heroes(7) and 5 free movies. 23 discs total and a 1080p player for $25. Thats cheap!
