I already have a black 3DS.  But should buy it and sell it for 170$, then trade in my old 3DS for a 3DS XL?

Would it be a good deal? :o

Unless you don't like free money, yes it's a good deal.

How good of a friend is he? Why not just tell him to sell it for $170?

He got it at a christmas party and he's not a gamer...  So he does not care.

So I basically have a free 3DS XL there :o

Do you think I can do a data transfer in store?

I know this will sound blunt, but DO IT. Pretty much you have everything to gain and nothing to lose!

Well if all you would do is take advantage of him, then that sounds kind of mean. Unless you don't like him. Then it's fine.

Yes, you should buy it.

And since you are so suggestible, you should send it to me in a large box, using money as packing material.

Gnac has won the thread.

This. friendship is worth more than a cheap 3ds. if he has no value in your life then fine.

If you care tell him its worth that and is he sure he wants to sell it at such discount.
