region free titles are not common, and big-named titles are generally region lock

- usually i ask for reconfimation for moded or not as moded console get u banned instantly wen u online. Unmoded console cheaper RM200, i dont think they "smart" enough to giv u moded ones biggrin.gif

- Check the console region make sure its NTSC/J ( its either located below the box or below the console), i cant remember

- Check new or now, (Since Xbox360 Slim are glossy, its easy to spot)

- Check content (Gamepad, POwerbrick, AV cable [original come with RCA only (Yellow, Red, White)], COnsole, Headset).
