I sold mine back to amazon for $95 two days ago. They are offering over $81 right now. Just an FYI for anyone who feels stuck with theirs. Considering I paid $65 with 25 game credit, I am quite happy.

Buying Back?

How did you sell it back to amazon? Do you happen to have a link or something? I cannot seem to find it.

Thanks in advance.

(I AM AN IDIOT... I clicked "Books" somehow on the trade-in link...)

Thank you. Here's hoping we get a better android box in the future, or maybe one of the current ones will take off further. I just could not stand this thing's controller.

Thanks for the head's up, I'm probably going to trade mine in then - I just got an Android ADT-1 (the Android TV Developer's Kit) off of eBay for $120 shipped (with controller and developers cable) and unplugged the OUYA. It was cool when it came out, but it became clear pretty quickly that it was pretty underpowered and under supported. ADT-1 is so much better.

Backers edition will not be accepted

I tried to trade in my brown backers edition to Amazon and they rejected my trade because it didnt match the silver one. Keep that in mind.

I just sold mine back today for $75.29. Works perfectly for me. It's been sitting in it's box for over a year. Now I just need to find out what to do with the spare controller...
Back up to $81.50 as of right now. I just flashed stock back onto mine before sending and got full credit from amazon 1 day after they received it. mine still had original box, manual, etc - I did NOT include the HDMI cable, and they didn't seem to care.

That's messed up - I ordered an HDMI cable just to have it as "Like New" (which it was) and got docked like $4 saying it was in "good" condition. Even put batteries in the remote, all paperwork, and the "let the revolution begin" card too. Ah well, guess it all depends on who's opening the boxes that day.
