I Payed $80 For A Tsop Flash? Wtf

Well comments like yours give me the shits it is people that produce Modchips that spend there time making bioses that you hypocrites that do TSOP flash use to make money and give nothing in return....

So shut the fuck up you got a free Bios and method to make some small change from naive people that have no idea what a TSOP flash is. I am sure if you explained it to then they would always choose a chip..So crawl back under your rock and wait for the next free app to be leeched so you can suck more naive people in out of there hard earned money..

Oh and $5 is too much to pay for a TSOP flash let alone $80.

its funny to see someone bitch about ripping someone off when thats what these chips are used for(not intended, but abused to no end rolleyes.gif ). i think youre just upset cause that cuts into your own pocket with your neato little chip page.

i should add i give people all 3 options and i charge the same for every install.

hey, im bitchin because i thought this guy installed a CHIP into my xbox but instead he just did a  TSOP  flash.  I was supposed to be paying $80 for a chip not a TSOP flash, and yeh i agree with ozmods in a way,  TSOPers using all the BIOSes , whos bioses.
anyway the point is he advertised a mod chip but instead just flashed the TSOP.

BTW mod chips are just ripping off M$ and how much do they make in profit a year, there money isnt just in xboxs, its just about everything.  IMO i think its alright to rip off the bigger  company. the percentage of chips in xboxs is probably smaller than you think aswell.

Where as a teen getting ripped $80 when he dosent have a job, thats a different story. As im not making millions in profit each year, am i.

$80, your saying chips are ripping off M$, take a look at you charging  $100 bucks for nothing. that better be USD.

eminvil_12, i understand ur pissed off-edness, but dude, i think ur making way too much of this, disecting it and everything...What do u care, u got to play backups, as much as u talk of ripping of MS, don't walk around here saying the onlyburned games u have are those of which u already own, bull...

The guy played u cuz u were ignorant to the facts, get over it, chalk it up, if ur not gonna confront him like a man and either force him to install a mod or put in a switch (like i suggested), stop crying and move on with ur life, damm! Go play something.

i think the issue has been a bit overblown, go get your money back instead of sitting behind your monitor and bitching on the  forums

this thread wasnt supposed to me bitching, it was about if this guy had PUT IN A MODCHIP OR NOT. i put pics in the first post asking if there was a chip. it turned into me finding he flashed the tsop and he didnt install a chip.

and yeh, i have been asking what chip i should get, as i want to install it myself.

i was a noobie when this guy did the mod so i had no idea what he was doing. i didnt where the chip went what it looked like.

I think no one has ever worn a white glove. I have done both jobs "Moddchip and Tsop flashing"! Normally I charge $100.00 for either one. Normaly when
you do a job in my opinion it would be to someone that's not to familiar with the
modding process or what it entails otherwise if they knew they would be doing it themselves. They would come to me becuase they have heard that i can give them extra capabilities to use with their xbox. I do not go into the details as to the difference between the two, I show them one of the tsop modds that I have and all that they can do with it and when I am done their jaws are completely droped in exitement.  I have done over 15 Tsop jobs and is not to save money on moddchips, it 's you really get the same results if not better and with all the benefits of the moddchip. In fact it's the same your just using the actual MS bios instead of a secondary.  I have not had anyone come no me complaining that I ripped them off! Instead all I continue to get is referals from the very same people that I have done jobs for. I had a guy told me he would have paid 400 for the very same job. On the other hand I have had many people ask me how it is that I can do what I do and I tell them that I have to go in there and solder a few points and then I have to flash there bios, and they ask me, what is that!  You hire a stock broker to make you money, when he does you don't go to him complaining about the way he made you that money. I have afew friends that there moddchips have stop working and they have come to me to ask me how it is that I flash the bios. If that guy told you he was selling you a moddchip then he did wrong! If he told you he was modding your xbox you might have paid a little to much for an exploit. In any case if indeed he flashed your bios (which it does not seem to be the case cause if you have ever solder anything you know your going to leave some kind of mark) you may be better off than with a moddchip. Bottom line the people that I have done these jobs continue to be very happy and continue to send me people and they can not believe all the things that they are able to do.
everything that they are able to do

Long ago I charged around 80$ for a TSOP.  Now I charge $150
If they want a Mod chip its $200  
TSOP with a switch split bios is $200
And thats the way it is.  My time is very valuable and I'm the best in the area.

it doesnt really hurt MS as much as it hurts the companies who make the game since you already purchased the xbox. youre skipping buying the games.

u assuming everyone is a pirate?
