I Paid $233 for a PS4 From Goodwill - Did I Get Ripped Off? This donate PS4 original came with two controllers, 10 games, and a (PS3) camera. The games looked to be in good condition but the controllers had some issues including some broken buttons and analog stick issues. The console did start up normally and I didn't find any problems when I opened it up. The PS3 camera did not work with the PS4 but no overheating problems. So overall not too bad a deal but probably not as good as buying something similar on eBay.

About This Video: I bought a PS4 original from Goodwill. It came with 10 games, 2 controllers, and 1 PS3 camera. The PS4 worked good but the controllers were not in great condition and the camera didn't work with the PS4 at all. The games seemed to be in good condition. Not too bad of a deal overall but not better than you can find on eBay. Still, Goodwill might be a good place to check periodically to see what they are selling. You never know when you'll find a good deal.

Goodwill has become very corporate and profit-driven. They don't seem to care much about actually helping communities anymore or they would still sell these donations locally. None of the Goodwill stores here have any kind of electronics. I don't donate anything to them anymore, it all goes to the Habitat ReStore, who will happily sell broken things even, which is my kind of place.

This v1 controller suffered the same fate mine did, in that I used it so much i melted off the thumbsticks from use. However the previous owner got a v2 controller and it's easily survived. The biggest problem is v2 controllers drift easily and quickly in my experience over v1's. Plus I'll hazard a guess that R2 button is missing the \o/ type spring. But its nice to see that console had a decent owner previously. just some 'well loved' controllers.

Also worth noting is that Goodwill generally tries to give back to needy folks in the community. A guy who came from a poor family came and worked at our farm, and Goodwill paid for him as part of one of their programs. Surprised you didn't check all the game cases, tbh. I would have expected one or two to be empty or have the wrong game inside.

Yes, lets please see the videos for the other PS4's and the Xbox One X. Typically the electronics finds I get from a local Thrift store end up as spare parts for fixing client machines that come into my hands for a little extra life added. Though I did score an ALMOST working PS3 Launch edition ($30) which I later brought back to its original glory for less than $40 more in parts. (Launch edition had a bad sensor for disc insert, as well as having to re-cap. Several ribbon cables were mangled, and one missing.

Useful tip to quickly check ANY optical disk. I work in a pawnshop... hold the disk, inked/painted side up - glossy side down - up to the light. If you see light coming through the disk, discard it. Anyone can see blemishes on the reading surface. But pinholes & scratched up printing can be hard to tell without sticking the game into a device & reading it for an eventual failure.

Good video as always. BTW you should do a video about how to sanitize used hardware, i buy a lot of stuff, but idk if i am doing it right. We are in a pandemic after all. Also yeah, do a single video reviewing all the other stuff you bought. Kudos and keep up the good work!

In the uk we have so many charity fundraising sources we have about 10 different types of stores that are company based all across the uk they are basically the same as goodwill but we don’t actually have goodwill here in the uk but any money that’s raised for charity is always good

I think it is still a good deal. In my country the games would make at least half the price you paid since a few of them aren't available at shops anymore and cost way too much money used on eBay and Amazon. It is a great bundle for anyone who wants to have games included.

I'm not saying all of them do all over the rest of the country but I know the ones around here do. Its goodwill, its not like they bought any of the stuff lol. Its all donated items.
