GameStop resold temporarily repaired Red Ring of Death Xbox 360s, report says

2015-01-09 21:39:37| Extremetech

One of the most widespread hardware failures to plague consumer electronics was the Xbox 360's Red Ring of Death, an unfixable light pattern -- unaccompanied by an error code, unlike other Xbox 360 failures -- that represented one or more hardware components have broken down in some way. A new report claims that GameStop learned how to fix it back in 2009, and has been reselling the refurbished consoles ever since. The fix, it turns out, could very well have been temporary, which means the much-derided GameStop was selling Xbox 360s marked for death.
