Default What if

...hypothetically

someone (a company) sent you an xbox 360 with 7 games to your house , with you name on it and your address. Would you send it back?

KNOWING it wasn't a gift from anyone that knows you, or you know.

Seeing as it is addressed to me, I can only interpret that the package was intended for me. At this point I fire up the mutha f'er and start playing...

hehehe

Exactly, I might contact said company and attempt to learn who the sender was and if in fact it was intended for me. If so, I would then promptly sell it on ebay and reserve a PS3.

Same as Neo...sort of. Sell the Xbox 360 ($600) and buy a PS3 ($500?). Then sell (>$1000) and buy 5 Revs ($200?). Then sell each of those at $50 more. So from a free Xbox 360 I make a nice $2600. That's if Revs are popular upon reception. And if received the 360 at launch could then have bought two PS3s and made a lot more.

I'm definitely going be waiting in line for a PS3. If 360s were selling for that much on ebay and still around $600 on average...man PS3 is gonna pay a semester of college possibly...just need to find a group and plan out buying several and pool our wages and dominate the online market...hmm saying too much.

Haha I don't think I can even make the money I spent back on eBay.... ah well we'll see. You on the other hand, will easily make that money with two sets to sell for the price of one.

Not everyday you get $1000 thrown at you just for existing.
