Hi NZ_Niff, My name is Adam. I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your Xbox 360. Based on the information you provided, it seems that you’re unable to access the free gold games and live profiles on your Xbox 360. I suggest you try the following steps:

If you can't get onto live or do not intend to ever use live, a banned console wouldn't be much of an issue. A banned console can not work online. If you are cool with LAN, split screen, and single player, a banned console would be fine. You can check if
it is banned here:

enforcement.xbox.com/.../ConsoleCheck

Get the serial number of the console, enter the style and serial then click check. I suggest this because it seems you can't do anything that has to do with internet if it is banned from what I have read.

As far as the random freezing, this could be a multitude of issue. Depending on when where and how it freezes, it could be a cpu issue, an optical drive issue, a software corruption issue, a modded xbox (this goes back to banning consoles), a cooling issue,
or a number of other issues. You may find that even with the console being a low cost purchase, the repair might cost more than another system at a slightly higher price.

My suggestion is to find out what is wrong with the system first and research the cost to repair. If you have to purchase it today or lose it, I would STILL suggest trying to get information about the exact issue causing the freeze ups, and keep your eyes
open for another 360 that is in your price range. If you lose the chance to buy it, don't worry. Chances are you will find another console reasonably priced in the near future. If you just jump at a system with a known freezing issue, you may be throwing your
money away if the system is unplayable.

No one here can really say if it's a safe buy or not but there is a risk in buying 2nd hand consoles.

There could be a number of things wrong with it,it may even be a banned console.

personally i'd never buy a 2nd hand console
