trade in value for all of this at gamestop?

April 29th, 2010 admin 2 comments

i don’t know how to use craigslist, and i don’t have an ebay account, so my only option here is going to gamestop to get robbed by their ridiculous trade in system. Can anyone tell me how much i’ll get if i trade in:

1.) An xbox 360 Pro with a 20gb harddrive
2.) two wireless controllers
3.) a play and charge kit
4.) VGA cable
5.) call of duty: modern warfare 2
6.) call of duty: world at war
7.) dj hero (with turntable)
8.) guitar hero 3: legends of rock
9.) oblivion: game of the year edition
10.) gears of war 2

Further, there is a deal going on now that says if i trade in 6 xbox 360 games, i get an extra 40% on thier trade in value. i have exactly six games, so whatever the value of those six together are gets boosted up an extra 40%. Also, i have an edge card that adds an extra 10% trade in value to all trade ins.

i know that’s alot of information, but can anyone give me an accurate estimate of how much i’ll get for all of this? i’m looking to buy a ps3, and i’m eager to get rid of all of this stuff.

Thanks!

I had this dream last night and I wonder what it means?

April 17th, 2010 admin 3 comments

In my dream, I finally decided to let my friend take me to a party. It was in a maybe a 10 story building, and everyone took the elevator to the top floor, but for some odd reason I was scared to take the elevator so I stood there looking at it and ended up sitting on the stairs, as I was sitting there, a person who i am guessing was the dj because he had turntables with him. The guy though had dreads and was tall and just beautiful, at first he kind of ignored me and took his turntables to the party and came back downstairs and asked me to take the stairs with him, after that my dream went to me and my friend that bought me and the dj were all in a bed. They were laying next to each other and I was laying perpendicular to them at their feet (not exactly my dream scenario). during the middle of the night i heard him whisper my name in my ear and reach over to touch my shoulder, and it felt so real that it was like he was right there I felt the touch on my shoulder and immediately woke up.

Its just so weird that I felt him so close, like i knew him.

and in real life, i dont go out much and i make up excuses not to go out with my friends.

My friend is a DJ, but he uses CD’s and not vinyls. Is this looked down upon?

April 17th, 2010 admin 2 comments

I was wondering if using CD turntables as opposed to regular turntables are accepted in the DJ world. My friend DJs sometimes at some pretty big clubs in downtown Miami and I was wondering if the top DJs use vinyl or CDs, and is using CDs looked down upon? Are those that use CDs not really considered DJs?

Thanks

For the following business, define the unit of sale and determine the gross profit per unit:

Peter, the owner of Funky DJ, provides DJ services to parties and other social events in his neighborhood. He charges $40 per hour. He rents a double turntable from his older brother at $10 per hour every time he works.

Does anyone know if this set of turntables will work out?

April 16th, 2010 admin 3 comments

http://www.guitarcenter.com/Gem-Sound-SK-10-DJ-Mix-Kit-800500-i1155411.gc

It’s from Gem Sound which I assume is a cheap brand. I’m a beginning in every sense of the word, I haven’t scratched a day in my life. I been producing hip hop for about 3 years and I just want something where I can play old records on and maybe do some mild scratching on.
Will this be okay for me?

I was wondering if anyone knew how I can record the mixes I do and transfer them onto a cd. Is there a certain machine I need for that? If so..what? how much? where can I get it?

April 16th, 2010 admin 4 comments

its something i wrote it may not make sense, but i needed to write down just how i feel at the moment, please give me a title or a name for this piece. Enjoy I guess!!!!

The image of you
runs in my head
like a dj turntable
baby your so far away
but i want you near
i tell myself that everything is
going to okey
you tell me that things
will get better
but how?
i ask myself
the only thing that is
keeping us apart
are two states
New Mexico and Texas
if i had the choice
to give you the world of stars
or me,my body, and soul
baby it would be me
this world of stars will
always be there just look
up at the skylight
but me
i’m priceless
and unreplaceable.
