    I bet it's just to power a signal amp.

    Finally figured out what it is, and it's not worth $40. Take a look:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Game-Saver-...250760421QQcategoryZ62053QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    Turns out the one in the first auction I posted just had its sticker removed. Case closed.

    It also looks to be very god damn resealed. RS comes with a pullstrip seal, not a heated shrinkwrap type. What a con!

    Nicola is a member of Assembler. And to be fair, i've taken a few items posted in that thread and advertised them here...

    Wait wait! If you don't like if sometimes I check other sites too to see if I missed some auctions, just tell me. I check also other regions of eBay sometimes. If you want, just copy all the posts I do on dp and paste them on this forum. I don't do it just because once for me is enough and I started it on the DP forum, but I am an assembler member too. I find many items, every day. I have a long long list of words, discovered in time, and usually I find more items than the ones written here. Sometimes I've been copied on this forum, but I think it's a good thing: auctions are public, everyone should know what's for sale and should be given the possibility to LEARN new things. Many new items, strange ones and so on. If I search and post on DP, it's not because I am payed or I want to bid but because I want to track these items, I want to show them to everyone. So, if you don't want me to post items that you find and that I DON'T FIND to keep the price low, just tell me and I will not copy the links from here. I am a member here too, and this forum is much different than DP. But if I find something by myself I'll link it. I am not paid for this and for any other kind of "service" made for the community.

    Excuse me for my engrish and, please, be free to post what I find here too. I'd be glad if you do soo.

    Nicola

    Sorry, I didn't mean to cause a tiff...or a hubbub or something. I suppose I didn't really know how I felt about it when I made that last post...maybe I was in a bit of a bad mood...

    Apologies...

    Sigh...what a hypocrite I am sometimes...half of the reason I visit other forums is to spread the same sort of information found here...

    Personally, i think Nicola does a service. Nicola has pointed out things that i could never have come up with on my own.

    If that's real, it's news to me. The jewel looks fake, the writing on the top is blurry while the "XBOX" part looks fine. It doesn't say "Special Edition" on the front, and it almost looks as if someone took off the word "Halo". Then again, that white EA Live xbox was news to me too... And what's up with that dvd remote, it doesn't look right either... It could be real. Dunno. I'll dig around.

    EDIT: They're real. They're even rarer then the other Gates signed launch boxes... If you buy this one, make sure the case is still sealed. There's one floating around out there that's a case swap. Not to say the case itself isn't cool, but you should check anyway.

    I messaged the guy about the xbox and all he could tell me was that he bought it from a pawn shop 2 years ago. Looks like a lot of work to fake it, then again, I have never seen this xbox before either.
