I Bought A £30 Xbox One S From eBay And Got SCAMMED

[@mikeywest2007]

Love the new technical term for the thermal paste condition

[@tyronenelson9124]

If an offer is too good to be true, it most probably is!

[@gwengo4167]

I’ve just repaired my PS4 Pro. It switched on and then powered off. Opened it up and the traces leading from the power lead to the motherboard were fried. Must have been a power surge. I’ve replaced the PSU and it’s working again 😁✊🏻

[@Andy-fu6vp]

I bought a PS5 from this seller and description was spot on. Unopened ps5 with no display. Was just the hdmi port. Replaced port and perfectly working. Been using it for 2 weeks now.

[@ETERNAL_MODS]

You just need to reconfig another hdd with "special" dos command in windows ..check about that

[@tonyrgnash]

Another One S I was hesitant to buy but get to see you fix. I got scammed on an auction last week where the guy said that it powers on but no display... turned out to be water damaged and beep on beep off. I haven't gone back to it yet...

[@fatboy7276]

raise "item not as described" get your money back too many scammers think they can get away with "spare/repair no return" distance selling doesn't allow that.

[@jeffschultz1338]

I'm amazed you're only getting £60 for them over there. I sell them for $130-$160 all day over here in the states, which would be £110-£125.

[@masterlemonlime4916]

You did not get scammed you bought Xbox 1s you bought it fecked if you by busted then it’s not a scam it’s the luck of the draw but if they say working and it doesn’t then they lied

Hi I am interested in making similar videos on how to repair car keys... However how do you take the video of you working on the circuit boards directly above ?

[@leeelphick7624]

Got a Xbox one s no power but the southbridge is hot to the touch with power supply put is that normal with a 12 volt short I'm new to this and was just getting into Xbox repair I'm guessing it's the southbridge but I'm not shore would love a bit of advice thanks lee

[@Finditfixitphilipit]

Xbox do not come with Toshiba drives

[@lynchpyn7805]

I couldn't imagine selling something that you know is put together with broken parts and not saying anything

[@oioioioi1421]

I can sell you an Xbox one it as been dropped it still works but disc tray is clicking and won't accept discs and the top casing is broken £20

[@conors5847]

Why u took down the xbox series x down the one with plaster inside it

[@DemiGod3]

You will win some and you’re gonna lose some, don’t get discouraged. Never

[@brendonelton]

It does seem to be a bundle of broken parts & sold as a complete system. Shocking!

Have you got a link for the hdmi tester you use. Thanks

[@jasperdude443]

Do you sell the plastic shell?

[@CuriousGamer022]

How's that being scammed,its cleary listed as faulty with power issues??

[@MikeGervasi]

So I assume you found a good PSU to put in before the HDD was found bad?

[@altmx9393]

Could be a mismatched bluray drive...

[@dodgydruid]

Should be careful with the name Spanner, its what we in London would call someone who likes fiddling with kids/tory MP... call someone a spanner in some parts of London likely be picking up teeth etc

[@thatonerepairguy4784]

Are you sure the hdd was bad I mean if your known good wouldn’t work due to south bridge could the one that came in it be good ?

[@TheCod3r]

No the first was bad for sure. It didn't display anything on screen which means the drive wasn't able to boot up successfully

[@XENONEOMORPH1979]

i do not buy anything from ebay unless they have 100% positive feedback unless i check the negative and think that they buyer has not explained his problem and just cussing i also send messages that i use if there is a problem against what the faults were , but also i make sure they have a shop and also check their feedback . if from house you got no chance.

[@nickboyer963]

It may be just. Me, but i'd pay a $100 for a good condition, Xbox 360. All the game stores around me want like 150

[@HD-wf3bp]

I got one fully refurbished that I bought and refurbished. It was never broken but needed new thermal paste and a good clean. I'm sure we can make a deal I'd sell it for €100 to you :D

[@Tysman909]

That console is totally worth selling. Can easily sell it for 200

[@tommyc-f7p]

They haven't scammed you, they listed exactly what you received, you claiming anything else is just your opinion nothing more unless you can prove it, seems you claim to get scammed a lot when you can't fix them or there's more wrong than the seller was able to find out by testing

[@UnCoolDad]

Use it as a donor machine for future repairs.

[@pl-gb624]

you didnt get scammed. you knowingly bought a dead unit, advertised as such

[@TheCod3r]

The definition of a scam is a dishonest scheme. When one intentionally puts parts into a console they know are bad, in this case a faulty mainboard, faulty hdd and faulty power supply, and then sells that as "spares or repair", that's dishonesty. If a listing stated all the facts, bearing in mind the seller is a technician, no one would in their right mind buy it because they know there's little to no chance of making money from it.

so sad ebay don't care at all

[@AnotherDud3]

What are ebay to do exactly? after he's opened it, attempted a repair, decided it can't be fixed or is not economical to fix, then get onto ebay hoping they'll tell him to return it, all while the seller described it accurately and lists as for parts or not working. You buy faulty items to make a living don't expect them all to be winners, isn't going to happen.
