Ok it wasn’t too long ago I wrote about my new HALO 3 Limited Edition Xbox 360 where I got a great deal from Best Buy because of their replacement plan. Well after last night that same console got the E 74 error.

I searched around for my Best Buy paperwork for the replacement / protection plan. Once I found it I noticed today (October 19th) was the last day of the protection plan. So after work I hurried over to my local Best Buy store to exchange it with a new system… Weeeeeell, I get there and the customer rep says that I can’t exchange my current hard drive for the new one I actually have to pay the $49 transfer fee. So I was like WTF? ehh wanting to keep all my stuff I said ok… She then told me while she was on the phone I should go pick out a new one. Well needless to say all they had were the arcade versions and the elites. So I told her I wasn’t going to go for the Arcade version and she said I didn’t have to she said I could actually get the elite version and I’d get $100 back. Because, the HALO 3 version when I bought it was $399 and the elite systems are now only $299. I was like “hells yeah!” when it came down to checking out it went like this:

The moral of my story is that I guess it really does pay to buy the Best Buy replacement plan if you know the product you are going to buy has a history of breaking down in a year or two.Similar Posts:
