Need some advice

Just bought my first case (BDP) for $640. Got instant cash back from Live, so I have $480 or so into it. Do I sell the case when it comes in for the price I paid and make the quick $160? The breaks I have seen are all solid, but it seems VERY hard to make $ back on these unless I pull a big gun.

What would you do?

I have been considering doing the same. However, I have a little concern....Live talks about purchases for consumption and not resale. I wonder if they will deny cash back if you buy and sell the same item on an ebay account....just a thought.

What if they already sent us an instant cash back? I doubt they could go into our accounts and take them away.

Oh wow. How can they prove a case you list on eBay is indeed the one you bought though? I think it's fine to relist.

I think you should have a contest to give away the case. I'll change my answer during the contest ,so I'm guaranteed to win it. Then I'll harass you in everyone of your future post asking where my case is.
