Some kid must have been one hell of a brat this holiday season. Seems a father got so fed up with his son that he sold the Xbox 360 he bought for $100. Yup. You could have netted a $100 Xbox 360 sans box if you lived near Kansas City—but without the original packaging. Why no cardboard box? The dad wanted to teach the kid a lesson, so he kept the box, filled it up with coal and gave it to him. You probably would do that too if your kid was kicking a $2,000 stereo system in a fit of rage. No updates yet on what the kid said or did after he unwrapped it, but we’re guessing his stereo system took a turn for the worse.
