I decided to check out DK Oldies, so I ended up picking up a Nintendo Gamecube and WOW was that a mistake.

@akirafuudou2037 3 месяца назад

DkOldies deserves to be criticized if they actually screwed the pooch on this, however, it was in your best interest to actually hook this console up and test it. Actually receiving the wrong console is a pretty big issue. Gamecubes are region-locked and run at a different voltage according to region. Japanese 'Cubes also only have support for one language in the settings--which is Japanese. Therefore, you'd be able to instantly confirm whether or not you actually got the wrong thing or if the console you got was a lazy shell-swap. If it were the latter, that honestly wouldn't be much of an issue compared to them lying and sending a Japanese one instead of a US one.

@@bryanobrien2726 That makes them illegal. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act made any means of withholding warranty due to end user maintenance illegal. The whole point of the stickers is that the company wants to enforce it, so it's fundamentally illegal. That said, your only recourse in the event of losing that warranty is to sue them... so if it's impossible to enforce, so it's only illegal for people that can afford legal fees lol

I was about to approach him when ge started arguing with the guy running the sale. At one point joey was saying he was gonna crash his car (jeep grand Cherokee) into in the guys house unless he got a good or price on super Mario sunshine.

@bloodragevampire 3 месяца назад

There’s no doubt the accessories and game came from DK and maybe the controller but the console is sus. There’s no holo tag that they put on all consoles even if it’s just a wipe down. They also use bubble wrap and paper since those peanuts aren’t too appreciated with PA sales and ship. The “acceptable systems” are often cosmetically flawed but are internally refurbished and warrantied for a month. I’ve bought several things from them and some weren’t perfect but they did make it right in the end so, if this was a indeed a system you purchased from them and didn’t open up the box from the bottom and swap out for the video so it looked unopened, then why not reach out to them and seek a resolution instead of smearing them?

The funny thing is I looked at their website and “acceptable” states- Acceptable systems are in used condition with cosmetic flaws such as chipping, scratching and/or discoloration but fully functional. So you bought a console and controller in “acceptable” condition…so ultimately you got exactly what you paid for. It’s not even hidden the description is right under the console.
