XBox 360 (Arcade Edition)!

[vaughan]

Okay - stop laughing.

I said STOP LAUGHING!

Seriously, LISTEN!

This is not a joke, so I'd appreciate your sticking with it for just a moment. Yah crazy people.

No, this is not a video game site. And no, I don't expect there are many of you even remotely interested in an Xbox 360. But then again, the books we read are often full of crazy twists and turns, and this is a kind of "surprise book swap" twist. Geddit?

So who will raise me say..... 40 books for a fully working Xbox 360 Arcade Edition? How about 30 books?!?! I have some games to throw in too. One of them is a Zombie shoot them up thing.

I don't know what an Xbox 360 will cost to ship, but the person on each side will have to eat the shipping (it's probably about the same, wouldn't you think?)

This is still in its original box, and whether you believe it or not, its only been used four times. Sony's PS3 took over in my living room after that.

Silly trade? Yes.

Bizarre trade? Yes.

Damn right mad trade? Yes.

A very very unlikely trade for such a site? Yes.

But I'm throwing it out there anyway. So there!

You can now go back to laughing.

Hey everyone.

Aint life grand?

Ladies & Gentlemen!

The Xbox is now sitting in a nice new home, and my book shelves are heaving under the weight of some Guy N. Smith! I think I got the better end of the deal there.

Given that the world is full of surprises and that coincidence is often too frequent to be merely, well, coincidence, it turns out that a member here, allthingshorror, lives a short 20 minute drive from my home!

One car trip later and he's made a space on his shelf, and filled it with Xbox!

So deal concluded, and (I hope) everyone is happy.

And I thought this was a long shot!
