Farewell beloved Skyrim 'box

Post by dharmaduke »

I was one of the lucky bastages that won one of those custom Skyrim Xboxs Bethesda gave away in promotional events last year leading up to the games launch. They were never available for sale so they're pretty darn rare, and I was really really happy to own one. :) Very sadly my bank account is now forcing me to part with it, but I thought I'd give you a gander at a pic or two before she goes to her new home:


oops, preview says I can't post non-ES links. Well, so much for that. lol. I guess you'll just have to picture a glorious Nordic machine. :mrgreen:

Rarity is a fine quality. I hope your luck translated well with time. Meaning which, I hope you fare well with this sacrifice.
Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

Thanks, Dark Spark. Quite a sacrifice indeed, but I'm hoping for the best. :wink:

You should be able to post pics now, dharmaduke.

Moved this to General since it's not really about the games themselves.

Oh, ok thanks musicman! Wasn't sure if maybe only mods had the ability to post pics or something. Sorry about posting in the wrong section as well. :oops:



Anyhoo, a couple pics that I promised earlier:

Oh thats amazing, I could not even fathom selling that. Obviously you need the money, the sacrifice you're making is tremendous. Hope you get a large amount for it.

That's cool enough to warrant owning an XBOX ;D Are all the new ones vented that way, or is the case and not just the skin custom?

Oh my God that thing is amazing...

Sucks that you have to sell it, I hope that you get enough to get out of whatever troubles you are currently in.

I would rather sell my body in hard times than give away anything of value. I have had a pretty broke life in general and I still have yet to sell anything of value, I just live within my means which gives me almost no spending money but that's fine because screw debt, I don't even use a bank account.

Also, that thing is freaking sexy. I didn't expect it to be that awesome, that sucks so bad that you have to sell it, I would consider selling one of my organs rather than selling it, I'm serious.

This thread made me kind of sad, I think I'll avoid it.

What exactly did you have to sell it for...I mean, it's just a pretty machine. It is pretty cool and all, but I'm not sure it's worth this much of a fuss. That being said, what were you planning on selling it for; after all - it's pretty cool.
