    i bought a used one at best buy, 950, i haggled to 850, but didnt get free xbox.. i took back next day when manager was gone, it wasnt working right, they gave me brandnew one, then i asked about getting xbox, they said sure. gave me one, took it home showed friend, he was like dude i want a xbox. and we looked on receipt, chic didnt put it on it.

    went to other best buy in town, asked for xbox because we didnt recieve one with our order,
    they gave us one.

    850 + 2 free xboxs= brand new rc512-s02.
    sold xbox 100 to friend, (sounds sheisty) but whatever. lol

    Could one of you guys look at your power adapater and tell me what the part number or voltage/current rating is?

    I think Best Buy gave me the wrong power supply with mine. Mine was a open box unit on display.
