BTW, to answer your question, repairs are always interesting, even when they're simple. Yes, do more!!

It should be protocol by now at Gamestop that the workers should be prohibited in using the magic eraser on the glossy part of PS5 consoles. A lot of workers at Gamestop are literally ruining the aesthetic of the PS5 by using the eraser.

Compilation videos are pretty popular these days - a lot of people enjoy sitting down and seeing an entire series (or similar type videos) all in 1 video rather than bouncing around. Also cool to showcase old videos that new viewers may have never seen (especially older videos like the ps5 with a bad GPU from like 3 years ago)

The custom PS5 has paint crackling, but it won't get any worse. He just used the wrong lacquer over the acrylic airbrushing paint, which is why there's no paint smell. I'm a professional airbrusher myself. The lacquer has reacted with the acrylic, but it's air-cured and will be solid. However, it will now be a dust magnet for the internals, even with the plate on the front. It would have been better to get the internals stenciled on the cover and backlit with acrylic glass. And as for the leds and that cheep remote converter attached to the leds that white box that's not original to the leds thats separate and stinks when run a usb to plug output just be very carful with that being inclosed in the console i use one on cob lights for controlling the dimmer to remote but it's dodgy I'll need swap it out ot heats up n stinks of melting plastic!

[@treXIIIdecim]

I always try to keep my console boxes. I like to display them along my top shelves. I'm pretty sure the Best Buy consoles that were sold open-box before release were probably damaged in transit to them. They opened the boxes to confirm if the consoles themselves were working and then sold them as open box. Rather than shipping them back to Sony.

Theres a tiny screw under the laser to adjust it its just not been set correctly or it's been knocked out off alightment in shipping,

[@PAUL-MH]

I use mine up right on the stand. I'm sure sony like idiots have put the disc drive upside down though because the games go in the opposite way to the PS4 disc drive. I've also had two over heating warnings even though it's only ten months old. Shocking build quality so the fan inside my PS5 is not even doing it's job!

[@Emtbtoday]

"Best Buy" label, grade C, is what I'd expect, being Grade C. The lowest tech refurb can give a device, so expect missing parts! But to be fair, it's worn like it's a store product for sampling when it was out. Looking closely at the bottom of the label, yep, it says "Floor Sample." Codes probably loged in the console the COD now installed on it being a floor sample?

Gamestop made an assumption that the next buyer of these refurbished ps5 will not know anything about taking it apart to inspect the inside, boy... were they wrong... they came across Jacob, so now gamestop has been exposed of dodgy practice. I betcha they do this so that when the unsuspecting victim gets this console and uses it for a short while, the situation escalates and gets worst to the point where it overheats etc and the consumer has to take it back and by then the warranty period is over and gamestop ends up charging them a fee to fix the problem, this time they will actually fix it coz the victim paid them more money.
