Absolutely no point Imo. And besides, it doesn't really matter what the outside of the console looks like as long as it functions perfectly fine.@@oz5150
@@JustarandomguyonRU-vid-i6znot to mention the shitty Liquid Metal they had to use to keep it from overheating I wouldn’t want a second hand to many what ifs
For the price GS is asking, the state that console and controller shipped in is unacceptable. I'll give them a point for packaging it decently for shipping but that's like praising a child for wiping after shitting their pants.
@@k9vendettathewolfofmordor529 they sanded it with magic eraser. It's better to spend just a little more and get a working controller and a console that hasn't been cosmetically damaged.... unless you're just going to trash your stuff anyway.
If folks are willing to drop 450 on a used console, why not save an extra 50 and buy new. I can get it being young you want it, but it’s always a gamble anymore with new consoles.
Wow that GameStop PS5 came with foam? Mine came in a box with no foam, no packing paper and no instruction sheet. And it was dirty and smelled of cigarette smoke. I’m actually surprised.
@@JussKanye mine got shipped today it said I should get it in 1-3 days estimated date is January 4 but I doubt I get it tomorrow because of the holidays.
I used to work at a gamestop and even in the training videos it says not to take things that smell like roaches. But also: as a former gamestop employee we didn't get paid enough to care. I quit last year and has a keyholder/SGA I was making 50 cents more than minimum wage. Not enough to care.
Hey homie if I'm not mistaken 5.50 is a jailbreakable firmware I know 5.05 is the most definitely but I think it extended the 5.50 so I think you updated a jailbreakable PS5
the thing about "refurbished" there isnt any legal classification for it and many resellers actually legitimatly belive refurbished is just a fancy word for "used product which wasnt tested and could be broken but it might have gotten some cleaning on the outside"
Maybe it's the black trim on the DaulSense that's causing the gap. The trim can come loose and it's easily removed and put back on assuming it's not broken.
It's probably cause of people like me, after I got my Series X I didn't feel like selling my Series S on Facebook so just brought it to GameStop and sold it to them for 125$.
stick drift like the one found in the first controller is usually associated with some sort of grimy, oily substance contamination on the joystick component... actually one of the more repairable issues you could come across in a controller, as you can't really fix wear on the sensors but you can clean grime well enough. the fact the controller works only up until you get a certain amount of grime on the sensor from buildup is my educated guess.
Magic eraser. How is this in anyway acceptable ? I still haven’t bought a PS5. But it sounds like that both user experience and build quality is questionable
my refurbished ps5 from gamestop came with the hdmi port split in half.... it works but i didnt notice until later. so eventually i need to pay to get it fixed. it also smelled like cigarettes
The reason why it feels different on the games stop ps5 plates it’s cuz they most likely took a new ps5 model and put them in the old ps5 the new ps5 plates have a different feeling
Hey jacob, I just did an at home refurbishment on my xbox 360 E, I just wanted to know if you wanted to buy it off me, its great in condition, but i dont have a hard drive with it
The PS5 controller is the worst controller I've ever owned. The battery lasts 12 hours max I've gone through eight controllers in 2 weeks because I got a used controller with my PS5 had to go back to GameStop and kept trading them in. When I used to play my Xbox a lot my controller would last for 2-3 weeks minimum before needing a charge. But I stopped playing that the same day I got a Modern Warfare 3 ad on my home screen when I fired up my Xbox one morning. Absolutely disgusting. If I didn't buy so many digital games I would just sell it
havent been to a gamestop in god years got my own computer setup and a digital ps5 no need to go back im all digital plus gamestop are crooks bring in a stack of ps5 games with a value of lets say 200 and ill get maybe 30-40 dollars in store credit for them
also to add i got my ps5 from a pawnshop for like 300 and its clean and runs smoothly the pawnshop in my town was practically giving them away because of how many they had in stock.
