I know it seems like a dumb place but I thought I would post anyway, I have two 1 Month Xbox Live codes but I do not have use for them, I would like to sell them through paypal. $6.99 each. Anyone interested?

Hi, it’s Robert with Stealthmod! You’ll be saying Stealth every time you use this mod! It’s like CoD! It’s like L4D! It’s like BioShock. A regular mod doesn’t work good – this works good and great.

Is this because you got banned from Live for hacking the console?

Nobody is going to buy those codes, unless you sell them for a dollar. 6.99 each ha ha, your kidding right. A new 1 month is like 7-8 each. Your better off just selling them or giving them to a friend.

Yeah, $6.99 is a little high (£5 here) and it's $7/£4.99 p/m for a month-month basis subscription. Besides, times that by 12 and you have £60 in pounds, and the year-to-year is £50 . What a bargain, £10 difference...

Sorry, I meant $5.99 if thats any better.

Why wouldnt you buy them if they are cheaper than ones you can buy anywhere else?

Cause they wont know if they are actually valid until *after* the payment is confirmed...If they buy from MS, they don't have to worry about being scammed. I'm not suggesting anything about you personally, just in general.

Yeah, I understand. I knew that was going to be the main problem was people not trusting me. Well, I guess I will leave the thread open and if anyone wants to buy one or two then we can talk I guess.

I own a PS3 and would never consider owning an Xbox.

Most people like Xbox simply over the price. Look at it this way though:

Xbox lacks built-in features. You might ask yourself why put these features in when half the people won't use them? Well, I like to use wireless because I don't have enough ethernet wire to reach my router downstairs. The adapter for the Xbox costs roughly $95 (last time I checked). The Xbox is now $199, and the Playstation 3 is $299. That's a $100 difference roughly. Why would I spend it on an Xbox, buy the adapter, pay for internet for it, not to mention all the games? I would rather have a PS3 and have the built in features such as BluRay (I've got a HDMI wire connected to my TV, looks great), wireless, blue tooth, etc. As said you are pretty much paying the same price in the long run, actually more since Xbox internet costs a fee (small though).

Anyway, let's get back on topic before this turns into a console war.

Yup, thats pretty much why im switching over. That, and im tired of RROD's.


I can't sell them locally because I bought them online and they just emailed me the codes. I mean I could but people probably wouldn't believe me. I guess the only chance I have in selling it is to a friend of something.

Lemonade's point still stands... How do you know they are valid codes? You have no way of testing them without using them.

I'm getting a huge strain of Deja Vu here...

I am honestly damn tired of people trying to prove which is the better console when they've never even tried the opposite. It's annoying, the arguments generally never have any solid ground and it never proves a damn thing.

And just so you know I'm neutral on the whole console fanboyism crap, I've turned into a PC gamer as of late.

My spidey-sense is tingling, this could get ugly. I suggest a mod locks this as Robert can't actually prove whether the codes are functional and it's got the makings of a flame war.
