I totally understand where this parent is coming from on one hand. It could possibly teach this unruley child a very valuable lesson. He will probably do some serious thinking before throwing a temper tantrum again.
However, it might also go a long way in convincing him that his parents only love him when he's good; that their love is conditional. Christmas is about the birth of the ultimate gift from God, Himself. HE didn't place any conditions on His love when He offered it to us. All we have to do is accept it.
Instead of selling it and then giving him the box of coal, I'd let him open it, and then very carefully, but firmly explain that BECAUSE his parents love him enough to discipline him, even though it's probably just as hard for them, they will be driving him to the local women's and children's shelter or orphanage, etc. so that he can present this X-Box 360 to them and just possibly learn a bit about what giving really means. If they do sell it, then they should have him take the money and give it to those who really it; even more than the X-Box.

:) That spoiled kid could have made my Christmas if I had known about this earlier!! I'm in Kansas City, and tried to search this one down, but alas, someone already took it.
that's priceless. it's sick how kids get away with so much nowadays. glad to see someone "getting even". Have a Happy Christmas
I agree with Beth. Not the most loving solution. Kindness turns a harsh word, that kid sure knew how to get dad's attention, through his stereo.
I agree with Beth, too.
Man, if I ever did that, my mom would MAKE me buy my own X-Box!!
Nice. If more people in this country were poor, we'd be alot better off.

Three words...Beat your child.
dear anon.
see "brant's question on my non-violence..." post.
This reminds me of something last year where a guy put his kids PSP's on eBay with a very similar story. He ended up making a ton of money in the end because of the press coverage he'd gotten.
Ahah...that made me laugh...so sad. Kids nowadays...*rolls eyes*
