I can do them all besides the 0078fk Hitachi.  I have my programmer on order but as far as the trouble to remove the TSOP and flash, reinstall, and verify that it works 100% won't fall under the $10 flash price (unfortunately it will take quite a bit of work to make it go thru smooth).  If you have any other drive that is before the 0078fk model can be flashed, so hit me up if that's what you got.  Thanks for the inquiry!

Just to clarify some things, a key is no longer needed on your end since most flash packages have been updated (should've put that earlier).  Fastest way to get it done is to just ship your drive so i can flash it and send it back.  Keep em coming guys, Xmas is right around the corner and I know it's gonna suck to have to replace those original 360 games when you get them scratched!  BUMP!

Sent you a PM yesterday, I live in San Antonio and am interested in getting my 360 flashed.  I have a Toshiba/Samsung drive and my 360 was manufactured in Nov 2005.  Which firmware do you use for that drive?

Cleaned up my inbox so those of you trying to send me a PM, please resend.  I've been getting a lot of work lately and need to balance it with the work i'm getting locally on 360's so cutoff date in which i MUST have your drives or systems received in the mail must be on the 21st (Friday).  This will be the only way possible to ship you your drive/system so that you can get it on the 23rd if I am to overnight it to you.  Any drives or systems received after the 21st will have no choice but to be shipped back after the 25th.  Act fast and please consider that the faster you ship me your drive, the sooner you'll get it back since i only take no more than 10 mins to flash it and will ship the following day!  Thanks everyone!  Oh yeah... BUMP!

PS- FedEx overnight shipping is available only to the continental 48 states and will be on your doorstep in the PM (this is standard overnight shipping, not AM delivery)!

Now providing Hitachi 78FK firmware flashes!  Same great firmware upgrade (thanks to Maximus) and same great price with FedEx overnight shipping!  If your console MFR date is past September 2006 then chances are you have one of these lovely new Hitachi's.  I have just backed up, flahsed, and am testing out this test drive i borrowed and it's working perfect so far!  I will continue testing this drive out the rest of the evening to be 100% sure it's working so expect and updated post.  Please remember to use Verbatim DVD+R DL media at 2.4x for best results when backing up your originals.  

PS- marilynpogo, your drive has been shipped on Sat and should reach you on Monday.  Here's your tracking via FedEx
8595 6308 4027

Please post here when you get it and have it tested out!  Thanks bro!

godofwar2k your system has been shipped via FedEx Priority Overnight with Saturday delivery and will reach you Saturday!  Total came out to $30.61 (and that's after 75% off!!!  blink.gif  ).  Imagine that price x4 if i didn't have the FedEx hookup, ouch!  Here's your tracking:   FedEx Homepage

8595 6260 6732

Please let me know when you get it and everything checks out!  Happy holidays bro!

===========================================================================

bigfuzz7 your drive has been shipped as well.  Your package was shipped via FedEx Express Saver and should reach you shortly after Xmas, thanks for being uber cool and understanding!  Here's your tracking:
FedEx Homepage

8595 6260 6743

============================================================================

Things got a little hectic as i just found out thru my buddy that getting something delivered thru Next Day (overnight) to arrive on Saturday gets charged significantly higher.  If anyone plans on getting their system or drive done thru me please plan to ship your items on Friday or Saturday my way so that i can receive them by Tues to reach you on Thurday or Wednesday to reach you on Friday.  This will help keep my pricing the same and still get you the kickass overnight shipping and great service you'll get from me!  

Now i got about 12 XBox 360s here waiting to get done for family, friends, and local customers so I will be a busy bee tonite!  Times like this I wish i had an extra XCM opening toolkit... wait a sec, I do!!!  

"Hi Ho, Hi Ho, a flashin' I will go..."  laugh.gif   Happy Holidays everyone!  Keep safe, stay warm, and don't drink too much egg nog!  Peace out!

Hey everyone,

I figured I'd drop on here and give my review of xtreme_360fw's service.

His communication is absolutely great, his shipping times cannot be beat, and his rate is an absolute steal. Packing was superb and the drive runs like a dream.

A++ in my book. I'm recommending him to everyone who needs a flasher.

Keep up the great work bro!

He says he will ship it out tommorrow and i would recieve it on friday, when i get it back, ill tell everyone how it went, but so far its been great. This dude def knows what he is doing and I would def come back to him if i needed to flash any more drives!

This guy is the man!

I sent my drive last friday and i got my drive back this friday and let me tell you something for 20 bucks, plus 5 dollars shipping to get the drive to him, i got my drive professionally "maintained." It runs everything! If you need to get your drive "maintained" this is the guy to go to! Not only it is so cheap, you get overnight shipping back to you!  This guy is awesome and very friendly! If you need someone, this is the guy to go to!

Early morning bump!  Thanks for all the kind words you guys, it means a lot to me to know i'm helping you guys out!  There is no shipping on Monday (New Year's Day) so if you shipped me your drive or system please make sure it will reach me no later than Wednesday or Thursday so you can get it on Friday.  FedEx charges twice as much for Saturday delivery (on top of the 75% discount i already get) so if you plan on wanting it on Saturday let me know so i can get you the exact shipping quote and adjust the shipping price accordingly after the 75% discount i get off of shipping (but remember, my service to backup and flash is still $10 and will always be $10!!!).  As long as you ship your drive or console via Priority Mail on Friday or Saturday, i should receive it by Tues or Wednesday so consider that when you plan on sending things my way.  

MY GOAL IS TO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T GET RIPPED OFF BY REDICULOUSLY OVERPRICED 10 MINUTE "FIRMWARE FLASHES" AND THAT YOU GET YOUR DRIVE OR CONSOLE BACK ASAP!  Thanks for everyone's feedback!  Please leave me feedback here or thru my Heatware link on my sig!  Peace out and Happy New Years!!!  This is gonna be one kickass year coming up!

Replied as well bro!  Keep me posted and look forward to helpin ya out!

Quick Note:
========

For the meantime, I'm going to have to request that those sending me a Hitachi 78fk jobs to please plan on shipping the core console as I have been having trouble with my VIA card on 78fk drives and won't be able to test out your drive on my system with my key to verify my work.  An issue has arised in which i might not be able to reflash your drive once i test it out with my key and the problem lays with getting it back into mode B after i'd spoofed it to my ms25 system and injected my key into the Hitachi for a thorogh testing of a successful dump and flash to your drive's chip.

 To avoid any delays until i get my new PC in and tested for 78fk flashing, this will be necessary to guarantee a working job on your system as i would originally test them out on my system to ensure the ensuing flash with your key and upgraded firmware will work (as you will just pop in your drive and rock n roll when you get it).  Just so you know, the service is still $10 for the backup, firmware upgrade, and testing, then assured reflash to your system.  I can easily backup and reflash a Hitachi 78fk to work on your system, but that would mean that i will have to ship it out back to you without testing and I wouldn't feel right to offer half assed service like that since i guarantee my work 100%.  

I figure the extra $10 to cover the overnight shipping and weight of your 360 console is better than getting back a flashed but untested dive from me.  Either way, if you wanna save the $10, I'll still accept just the drive but keep in mind that it will be shipped back without testing.  I just wanna save ya all time and take that extra measure to make sure your Hitachi 78fk drive and system are working together in harmony.  Either way, all Toshiba Samsung and initial Hitachi drive flash jobs are unaffected; this is ONLY for those who have a Hitachi drive that has the 0078fk firmware.  Thank you all for your interest and feedback so far!  Peace out!

Hell yeah!  Glad to be able to help you guys out, thanks for the feedback!  Thank you all so much!

Just to clarify on the Hitachi's with 0078fk firmwares, I can still just do it for $20 if you decide to just send me the DVD drive.  I will verify the original firmware dump and the reflash of course, it's just that i won't have any console to test it out with before i ship it back to you (ever since my VIA PCI card setup won't reflash the Hitachi or get into mode B once i insert my key and spoof it to test on my system).  So only if you want that extra assurance of a tested drive, then I ask that you ship me the core console so i can verify before i ship you back your setup.  Remember, this does include overnight shipping via FedEx as always!  Any other questions or concerns, just let me know thru PM or email me at [email protected]!  BUMPERS!

just got my 08/2006 (mfr) 360 today.  dvd tray has the single hole at the bottom i believe means its a samsung.  im gonna use it for a few weeks to see if it dies on me.  i cant afford to replace it. then i plan on shipping it to you.

a few questions if you dont mind

-so only the dvd drive right?
-can i do newest live dashboard update now and still have you mod firmware later?
-after firmware flash can i still use live?
- will i be able to backup my own 60 f'in dollar games?
(im plenty familiair with bitsetting and clonecd)
-if not what are the limitations on images i  pal/ntsc?
-this definetly voids my warranty right? even to an inattentive target employee?

sorry to be bothersome heck knows 30$ doesnt cover badgering questions.

Actually bro, all questions are welcome and i'll answer them as best as i can!  Only the DVD drive is necessary.  Again, only the Hitachi 78fk drives are the only ones i'll need the core console if you want a 100% tested drive but i can still do them without the console if you choose.  

-Seeing as you have a Samsung, then just the DVD drive is needed.  
-Feel free to do the live dashboard update now as well as the XBox 1 backwards compatability update since the new Xtreme 5.2 firmware allows single layer XBox 1 backup use in ISO mode (no dual layers needed anymore)!
-You'll still be able to use XBox Live! but only do so at your own risk and I would suggest you use your original 360 Live game title when you play online for assurance and safety as we don't know what M$ plans on doing about the firmware hacks (so just be safe and use the original when playing Live!).
-Seeing again as you have a Samsung drive, yes... you will be able to backup your own $60 investments like we all are doing now (I just damaged my 2nd original of Gears of War already!!! arghhh! )
-As long as the games are Region Free, then you can use them on your NTSC/U console with no problems.  Region locked games and backups of those original games won't play due to the region restrictions.
-Warranty is voided as you will open up the system in order to remove the DVD drive to send my way to upgrade.  There are techniques in properly removing the MICROSOFT warranty sticker without damaging it if in case you feel it's necessary to do so.  It involves a hair dryer (or heat gun), exacto knife, a steady hand and some time.  

All questions are welcome bro and i thank you for posting them here on the thread, that way, others looking in who might have similar questions will be able to read as well and find out the answers.  If you plan on shipping the core console (so i can remove the warranty sticker properly and do my thing on it), then it will be $30.  If you open it up yourself and just ship me the drive, then it will only be $20!  Hope that answers your questions bro!  Let me know what you wanna do!  Peace!

Post by: xtreme_360fw on January 08, 2007, 02:24:00 PM
That's what I'm here for bro!  Glad i was able to answer your questions!  If your console was manufactored in 2006 and you aren't using a Nyko fan add-on, you shouldn't have any problems as a lot of heat issues were resolved from the original launch systems (I haven't had any problems with my launch system to date.  Either way, it's a good thing to stress test your system out.  Best game to test it with is Gears of War of course!   Let me know how it goes for you!  Peace out!

Sorry bro, I don't sell games as it is against the rules of these forums and local laws.  This site has excellent forums and tutorials in backing up your own original 360 titles yourself.  All I am offering is a firmware backup, flash, and return shipping and nothing else!  If you need a flash and live about 20 mins away, i'll be glad to help you out.  I have damaged my 2nd copy of Gears of War so if you have that game to trade, I'll flash your drive for it.  Let me know what you wanna do, peace!

this dude is the real deal. I got my xbox back the day after he finished. He had it probably a total of 5 hours before it was on its way back to me.

It was safely packaged as well. I tested my originals on it and they work fine, not a single problem. I will update tomorrow once I test my backups.

I can't say enough about the awesome communication. He will answer ANY question you have. There wasn't a moment I didn't know what was going on with my 360.

I would and will use his services again.
this guy deserves some credit for his services. I can't stress this enough.

-Ship it properly and securely packaged with tracking or delivery confirmation (I can't stress this enough if you're shipping a console, opt to get insurance if possible)

-Include a paper or note with your forum name or gamertag and your return shipping address with the drive or console (i cannot ship to PO Boxes at all)

-When shipping a DVD drive, remove the eject button piece off of your DVD drive (I almost forgot to ship one back with its drive yesterday and would like to avoid that ever happening)

-When shipping a console do not include any controllers, cables, or power supplies.  If you want the dash and XBox 1 backwards compatibility updates, then include the Hard Drive as well and i'll update it for you free of charge!


Following those guidelines will make everything run much smoother on my part and will get you your drive or console back without any hiccups!  I cannot ship on Fridays for Saturday delivery so anything that comes in on Friday will be shipped out on Saturday via FedEx overnight but it won't reach you till Monday so keep that in mind and take into account the time it will take for your package to reach me (Friday is always a great day to ship so it can reach me on Tues or Wednesday)!

A lot have asked why i cannot take or accept Paypal payments with credit cards.  Truth is since i charge so little for the flashing, and sometimes barely break even on the shipping fees, i cannot afford the Paypal fees incurred with accepting CC payments and would like to avoid fraudulent credit card payments down the line.  I am capable of accepting Paypal payments done with actual funds on hand so that won't be a problem and i don't see myself accepting credit card payments any time soon.  Other than that, I should have covered all i needed to on this post.  If you're interested in my services please send me a PM, email, or catch me on AIM.  Thanks to everyone who's gotten a drive done thru me and left me wonderful feedback about my services, i truly appreciate it!  

With all that said and done, what are you waiting for?!?!?!  Hit me up so i can hook you up!  My prices and service are legit so don't let this opportunity pass you by cuz I won't be doing this forever y'know!  Now are you thinking about sending Nana's 360 my way?  Good choice!  You'll be her favorite grandson!  Peace out and Buck Fush!!!

Update!  Ok, i got back from doing some PC work and i'm beat!  I'll be crashing out early tonite so here's an update:

da_shatterer - your drive is shipped out and will reach you Thursday

lilant2398 - your system has been shipped as well and will reach you Thursday

I wish i had tracking numbers for you guys but my friend is crashed out when he said he'd call me with them so i'll get them for you in the morning.  Either way, i assure you that your packages have been shipped overnight so you'll get them in about 12 hours from now.  Pretty cool huh?  Gotta love that overnight shipping!  cool.gif

dbwang - My buddy has your package and will be shipping it out on Thursday to reach you Friday, i'll keep ya posted too bro!

Those of you who have a system headed my way will need to make sure they get can reach me today (Thurs) so i can get them shipped out tonite to reach you Friday.  I may have to start only shipping on Mon-Thurs as my girlfriend has been requesting more of my time lately and has become not too fond of 360's lately  laugh.gif  !  Either way, if you plan on shipping anything to me, today and tomorrow are ideal days in which to so so I can get them in early in the week and send them back!  Those expecting packages will be getting the tracking numbers by Thurs afternoon!  And now I'm off for some much deserved sleep  sleeping.gif !  Goodnight everyone!

Sorry for the late post. I still haven't been able to try my drive with backups but the originals work fine.

xtreme_360fw was very nice and helpful, and he replied to EVERY PM I sent him, really quick too. I also got my drive back quickly after he got both my drive and money (which he got the following day). I'll post again back once I test it with a backup, but so far so good.

Quick update:

Thanks man

You got it Brian, I'll be sending the Cyclowiz back to Divineo and I will also be sending you back the shipping invoices for that shipping refund.  Again, I'll be able to install a homemade Wii chip once I get the hex as you're waiting for the replacement Cyclowiz to come in.  Thanks!  smile.gif

Okay quick update and it ain't good news.   sad.gif

I had packages ready to go out on Friday but my friend wasn't able to make it in time to come pick them up to send them out.  I was hoping he'd help me send them off today (Saturday) but he went outta town to visit his family and well I couldn't impose on his personal plans.  Due to these circumstances and in order to ensure that the shipping discount continues, I'm going to have to start limiting shipments of systems and drives for Monday thru Thursday only.  To those still waiting on their packages will get them shipped out on Monday for sure so you're patience is greatly appreciated.  Anyone looking to send work my way will have to ship on Thursday or Friday so I can get it early in the week and send it out accordingly.  I would hate to begin to annoy my friend since he always has to be there when I get all these things shipped out for you guys and eventually lose that discount so outta respect for him and how much he's helped us all these past couple of months, i hope you all understand.  My price hasn't changed and neither has my awesome service you all have gotten to know and love, just the days outta the week in which i can ship.  Since I only get to see my girl during the weekend, this will benefit me as well.  

If it comes down to it and if you request it, I will ship your packages thru USPS or UPS but it will only be standard 2-3 day shipping so if I send them out on Friday or Saturday, you will get them back by Tuesday or Wednesday.  This would be exactly the same if you wouldn't mind waiting for me to send off your packages on Monday to reach you Tuesday so in essence, it balances out just fine.  Any questions or concerns please email me at [email protected] since my inbox keeps getting full time and time again.  Thanks!

I know he’s busy, so I’m not giving up on him yet. The last email I received from him was April 17, 2007. He was returning back to his new shop to continue setting up business and work on my modded 360.

He really should close this thread and complete all pending orders until he’s ready to resume normal operations.  mad.gif

Okay quick update for those wanting to send work my way...

I've been working like crazy (48 hours at a time) on this huge pile of 360's clearing them for resale and verifying that they work, and modding them up and upgrading them.  I've severely underestimated the time it would take to go thru these systems so i'm getting bogged down by all this work as well as getting everything down for my new BST/Flasher thread as well as finishing up the work I currently have pending for those who sent work my way.  Everyone with pending jobs have been contacted and notified that I should have their items finished and sent off on Monday/Tuesday.  Those looking to send work my way will still have to wait a bit longer.  Since I've been at the new workshop 48 to 56 hours at a time, I still have no luck with internet access and only have a chance to get online when I get home (and even then, when I go home, it's just to shower and finish packing up my stuff before I move into a new house) then I'm right back into the shop again.  My girlfriend's birthday was on the 19th and I didn't even get to spend it with her but have to set some time aside for her today (April 21st) since I had to promise her I wouldn't be busy around 5pm today to give her all my attention for her birthday so I'm gonna be busy with that today but will get back to work when I take care of my baby  love.gif  !  In the meantime, I will be closing this thread although I sure do appreciate everyone's bump in the meantime.  If you are wanting any firmware flashing or mod installs please contact another reliable modder on these forums in the meantime until I get this whole setup fully locked and loaded for my v2.0 threads to apprear shortly.  I will also be fixing the 3 Red Light o' Death systems with the new fix that has surfaced and proven to work wonderfully (I've fixed and have extensively tested 2 RLOD systems I had here and can officially verify it's working like a charm) so I'll be offering those services as well on the new threads.  I apologize about the lack of contact lately but you all gotta understand that when it comes to internet service, i'm still waiting but rest assured that when I finally get my Wireless PCMIA Sprint Card in, i'll be back in constant contact like I was before and ready to offer you guys the awesome service you've come to know from me with much more efficiency now that I'll be able to handle a big workload.  This will be my last post on this thread and I want to thank everyone who's made this possible cuz in truth, it's like a dream come true this past month.  Everything is slowly but surely falling into place to allow me to be able to offer the kind of service I've always wanted to for you guys and this scene, all i ask for is a little more patience... it's gonna be so worth it!  Are you ready?  I know I sure as hell am!  Peace out and thanks for everything!  I can't believe I've gotten over 10,000 views on this thread!   biggrin.gif

I will be in contact with him Tomm. (he lives near me) so I will relay your names to him and PM you with his response during the weekend. Again he says not to worry he'll get it done, and In knowing him a while I would take him for his word.

thanks for modding my 360 back in january!
we all know what happens when you go on live with a modded 360.
you take a risk of being band because of the firmware and the backup disc itself.
if you want to go on live you need to go on without a modded machine.
don't blame this man for modding your machine,he warned you what would happen if you go on live.
i know we all as people have trouble here and there,and after you people recieve your items back please leave a reply saying you recieve it back.this man is great to this forum even though sometime things are slow.i had to wait 4 months to get my gamecube back from www.themodchipman.com. so yes i feel all your pains..also remember going on live and getting banned is your fault not his..

Well bro,
I received your email. We all go through shit in our lives. Wish you the best and hope you get your life back on track. I’m straight with my refund money, and I’m considering it water under the bridge. I’ll take this as a sign that the Xbox 360 was not for me, and I will just play my PS3 for now.
I also agree that it not your fault that punk as Microsoft is banning people on live. Everyone knew the risk, and the only hand you played was flashing the DVD drive. Doesn’t matter who flashed it, the outcome would have been the same. Microsoft are b****** for developing a defective product.  wink.gif

I have the phone number from which he called me when he received my 360 but he never answers.  Seriously we need to act together in this if we have a chance of getting our stuff back.

Last week he told me he would be shipping it back to me "next day" and even gave me a tracking number(which is not recognized by fedex.com) so I have just about had it with this guy grr.gif

Do you think it'd be wise to file a police report?  If they bust Greg then they could technically bust us all for sending our systems in for Modding.  I really dont think that would be a good idea man.  He has my buddies system and owes me another one as well, he has had it since April. Ive sent him 3 systems so far w/ no problems he did take a while the 2nd time though, but he still came through.  Why would he even bother sending us messages that he was going to ship us our systems after about a month and a half of no word at all from him.  If he was going to scam us he wouldnt have even bothered.  It sounds like he has the intention of sending us the systems, but is being held up from one thing or another.

if modding your xbox or wii was illegal, then sites selling mods would be shut down left and right.  mod chips would be on black market.  think about it.

these aren't drugs.  there is no legislation that prohibits adding a chip or LED to your video game console.  It voids your factory warranty and can get you banned from online networks, but that's the extent of the reprecussions that stem from installing anything on a console.

defrauding individuals is another thing, however.  I am with you in thinking that he may have the intention of sending us back our items, but 3 months (in my case) is patient enough.  he didn't respond to any of us until we mentioned going through legal channels.  now, it's time to go through with it.  though his intention may be to please everyone by modding everything and sending it back, he's still at fault as long as he does not hold to his word -- both verbal and written.

Yeah I think your right Pedo lets start calling, he's obviously trying to f**K us.  I've been talking to him all week last week on the phone and its been excuse after excuse.  Then Friday his phone was off the whole day and I even had a UPS Label waiting for him at a local store so he couldnt give me any more damn excuses. Now he's not even answering his phone, but its on.  SOB  I'll see if my bud is going to call them, but he doesnt have a system of mine, I did get a system from him but its 3 rol on me after about a month after getting it from him.  So I've been waiting on a replacement system which he keeps telling me its gonna happen along w/ my buddies system that I sent him months ago.  We'll see if he answers his phone today.  grr.gif  grr.gif  grr.gif

I haven't read every page, but it looks like he's scammed you guys I'm sorry to say.  It's happened to be with a different guy and and a pre-modded PS2 a few months about so I know how you guys feel somewhat.  Basically if someone is charging way less than anyone else is for a service there's a good chance he's a scammer.  $10 is just too cheap for someone to be charging for flashing IMO.


You said it best "I haven't read every page"

The guy actually had excellent feedback from many members and then it all went to crap, it's about 1:00 AM now so I'm going to bed but I will be calling the cops tomorrow morning. the numbers are a few pages back and I advise everybody to do the same.

Wow I can't believe this happened. I used this guy back in December and everything was great. I've been reading through the pages and it seems things started going bad once he lost the employee discount. He probably found out that shipping on each system was going to run him 30 dollars and he wasn't willing to go into the negative. He probably found himself with 30 systems. That's 900 dollars worth of shipping. This is still no excuse and I think it's horrible what he's done to you all. It seems every good guy eventually turns bad.
I'd watch out what you say to the police. Modding is illegal in some states. They might just go to his house and seize everything, and you'll never get anything back. I'd look for someone in his area that would go to his house. Like a body hunter or something.

boy was it easy to sign up with a new account now i could be any one looking at this post even Greg and laughing...which im not but if you see lots of new people with very few post saying what a great deal this is be very careful
by all of you saying im giong to call the cops for weeks and not doing so don't you think this guy just gets more brasin .....nothing is illegal about you sending a system out to have something done to it ,at the very most it would be Greg that would be busted for modding not you ....what makes you think this jackass isn't already back with a new member id for xbox-scene saying OH you should wait and not call the cops


So true, I actually called the cops yesterday, but had to leave a messege with the investigations unit. They haven't called me back yet so I NEED MORE PEOPLE TO CALL SO IT IS HIGHER PRIORITY

Chorizo1, looks like you were able to talk to Greg a few days back. Do you have any contact with him. IS ANYBODY ELSE GOING TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN SIT AND WAIT???



Hey Pedo, who did you talk to at the PD in Harlingen?  I want to call them today.  And did anything get accomplished by calling them?

I had to leave a voicemail with the Investigations unit, but they did not return my call so I need more people to call so they know this is for real.

Also Ive left Greg about 20 voicemails and e-mails now with no response . So he is just asking for it.

*UPDATE*

I finally talked to the Harlingen PD. They took all the info down but advised me to call my local PD (from where the item was shipped) and give them all the info so that they could work together and get my 360 back. So I would advice everybody to do the same, I will keep updating you as this progresses but then again you need to do the same so the priority on this is higher.

Wow...Greg did my xbox 360 and sent it back no problems.

There's not much yall can do...yall sent your xbox's to him therefore losing all your rights. Just like ebay scams...there's really nothing you can do unless you meet him in the flesh.
