Too bad mate.

Fix it if you can and sell it so that you can put the added cash for a Jasper unit (if you can find it at retailers).

Yea I had that idea - Xbox 360 RROD end of May 2009 and maanged to get a Jasper. Thought I'd get it swapped out in the 5 days and sell it for R1800.00 helping with the Jasper cost. I even advertised the unit and said available in 2 weeks ...

I sit here now (2 months down the line) with a RROD Xbox 360 and a R4,000.00 Jasper that I hoped would cost 'only' R2200.00 by month end.

“Dear Xbox Customer



We wish to thank you for your patience and understanding while we resolve the issue of the replacement stock . Unfortunately the stock was destined for Midigital and due to the recent liquidation we were forced to change the importer of record to Powercare . The process however has unfortunately caused delays in the clearing of this stock through customs . We would like to assure you that we have explored every avenue in expediting the release but the indication is that the soonest we can expect release is 22 July .



There will be increased staffing at Powercare to ensure rapid despatch of stock upon arrival and minimise any further delays to you our valued customer .



We appreciate the patience you have shown us in dealing with these unforeseen circumstances .
