Anyone has experience with refurbished EB Games items? Care to share the experience?
For an extra $35, I'd rather just get a new one ..
Exactly!! Buy this but take CAUTION!!
I got a PS3 off them once. The website said that they were all thoroughly checked and cleaned before being onsold…I guess that's the "refurb" part.
Mine dusty and dirty, missing rubber feet, and the controller didn't work properly. So, no, I don't think they really do anything with them…take their 'refurb' definition with a large helping of salt.
That said, they replaced the controller, and the unit worked just fine for a few years until I onsold it on eBay (I had replaced the rubber feet, and gave it a good clean before selling, as any half decent seller should)! I find the staff at my local EBGames to be helpful and responsive to any issues - you just have to ask them. I don't think they really "refurbish" anything though. Just a cursory check maybe, and then stick it in a box and resell.
I bought a Xbox 360 a couple years ago. First one was broken, it randomly opened the disc tray when on. So took it back and got a replacement. Second one worked and was in good condition. Guess it takes a little trial and error.
same, bought a refurb ps3 controller a couple years ago. It was dirty and has connection dropouts. I just went back to the store and ask for a refund.
Got an iPod Classic a few years ago. Not sure what they mean by 'refurbished'. The iPod I got looked like it has been stomped on and fed through a paper shredder before being packed. I returned it to my local store straight away.
I bought a refurb PS4 Pro about 10 months ago, The HDMI cable didn't work and it came with a white (official) controller replacing the original black one. Other than that I've had no problem with it and saved a good amount at the time by purchasing with a eBay discount code.
Got a wii u like this. Dirty and scuffed, but works.
I don't understand how people manage to scuff and dirty their consoles…
They treat it like dirt and throw it about. We all like everyone to treat their stuff how we do but the sad but true reality is they don't.
@xoom: Yeah, controllers? maybe, dust? sure, but how do people get their consoles filthy?
I've seen better condition game consoles in the "junk-o box-o" at the back of Japan's second hand stores :(
@idonotknowwhy: leaving it in a filthy environtment. Grabbing it with grubby hands. Plenty of ways people have dirtied up their personal things not just console. Like i said we can expect a certain item that belongs to other people to be as clean as our similar items but reality is people just dont care as much as you and i about them.
$318 for a second hand Switch … you 'aving a laff?
Wouldn't pay more than 50% rrp for second hand.
you'll be waiting a loooong time then. look on ebay and gumtree.. second hand switches with no warranty are going for more than $320.
Seems that around $300 for a used one isn't that unusual. People mustn't value the new smell/warranty all that much.
For me, yeah, I'd prefer new for an extra $50 or so.
Hehe, should be $250.
This one will be compatible with SX OS (you can play your game backups). The new one might not.
So I'd take the pre loved version
Very good point.. Didn't even consider that.
Cheers
But the prime deal was much better.
That's only helpful if you have a link to a time machine deal.
First round sold out in like 1 minute, second round sold out in 5 minutes.
Nintendo Switch Console for Ebay Plus members $374.00
Free Delivery for Ebay plus members
This is not a plus deal. Same price and free delivery to non-plus members.
After seeing the price from the amazon flash deal, this deal isn't such a deal
Yeah same, really wish I'd been able to snag one
Yeah…I'll be waiting for another of those…someday.
Have a PS4, but the whole Sony cross play thing pisses me off, so thinking of changing.
Will be cheaper than Amazon at Catch after the 15% off gift cards promo starts at AUPOST
Can we use more than 5 cards at catch as i haven't seen $100 gift card at post office recently.
Nope, and yes you will need $100 gift card. You can request them to order more? Mine has more than 5 on display
Got my Switch during the Amazon prime day deal - it's awesome. So much fun.
Been spending my time chipping away at Zelda. Great game. Grabbed Mario odyssey for $52 but doubt I'd play it anytime soon.
I have been looking for a cheap copy of Mario Odyssey.
Was almost tempted to get a second one for using the hardware hack (don't want my other one compromised for online games…)
MEEEEEE.
I have been this close to grabbing one a few times now, just because I know you can get Duke 3D on it. Does it matter that I have Duke 3D on literally every machine I currently use (including even, my god damn Nokia 3310 and ChromeBook)? No, I wanna come get some.
Legit though some of that homebrew shit is wild already, and the SDK recently fully leaked too so it's only gonna get better.
Juts get a N-3DS-XL for now, Play duke 3D on that, since it can be hacked and still have online
Eh, got Duke 3D on my R4 already, happy with that and no hack required.
But cheers for the recommendation dude, I don't really think about the 3DS family anymore.
Not really as they have started implementing Nintendo switch level piracy check on the latest firmware which was released two days back on 3DS. But still it's an amazing console with plenty of great games available.
Don't think any hardware hacks are available yet…..?
You know why Gamesmen are selling it cheap? because for the rest of the time they have been selling it higher than RRP, so they realised their not selling enough stock.
Stupid really.
Good price. Waiting for mario maker to come on switch
Can these be hacked with online play yet? My 3ds is hacked and online so i wonder how long i will have to wait
Probably be waiting forever.
Nintendo have upped the ante this time and are banning heavily on Switch. The latest 3DS update from yesterday also seems to have introduced measures to easily detect modded games/consoles the same way they do on the Switch. So they might start wholesale 3DS bans too.
Basically if you want to mod be prepared to kiss online goodbye
Dont know If this is true but I remember hearing somewhere Nintendo was paying the people who make the exploits to show them how to secure them, might be wrong just remember hearing that somewhere
Hey why not right? No different to antivirus software makers hiring the ones that wrote computer viruses.
Oh, missed this….
Back in stock!
Wonder if these are the fabled new hardware revision that they had sneakily implemented once the word of the Tegra exploit came out.
I read that they had revised the hardware and didn’t tell anyone.
No reports of the updated hardware but they have tweaked the software so it's not working with the current exploits. So if that's important to you you'd be best buying in person or second hand.
Nah F-G hardware exploit still works from my Switch from this deal.
Just bought an xbox 1s from amazon prime day (thanks everyone) and was wondering whether I should buy a switch at this kind of price, or wait until black friday sales?
Any pressing need to play any game? If not hold out.
back in stock
what are some good RPG games apart from zelda?
octopath traveler
Mario and the rabbids
