  • I Bought a PALLET of BROKEN PS4's - How Many Can I Fix? I paid $2,387 for a pallet of 22 broken PS4's. There ended up being 15 PS4 Originals, 4 PS4 Slims, and 3 PS4 Pros. I started with fixing the PS4 originals first and had amazing luck with them. I did some cleaning and removed something stuck in a disc drive but no serious problems. The Slims needed more repairs such as a glitching display, a disc drive that wouldn't accept a disc, and a broken eject button. The 3 PS4 Pros were also mostly working fine except for a disc drive that wouldn't accept a disc.

    About This Video: I bought a salvage lot of 22 broken PS4s to see how many I could fix. The 15 PS4 originals were mostly working already with only a few minor fixes and cleaning needed. The PS4 Slims and Pros got a little more tricky thought with some disc drive issues, a broken eject button, and a crazy glitching display problem. Overall a pretty good lot. I only wish they all were this good.

      Yeah, like I just answered to somebody else, I always wondered if he tests Nintendo Switch in docks. I’m pretty sure he never found one that had no video output while everything else was fine. But if I look online, it seems to be a frequent issue with people that used bad docks / chargers. I’m wondering if some not broken Switch had in fact no video output.

    @PAGANONYMOUS 4 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    In some countries including mine. If you return a product in an opened box the shop can not legally sell it as new anymore. So depending on how the company deals with customer returns, when it says "broken/refurbished" It could just be a brand new fully working customer returned device. Some companies simply get rid of all customer returns as broken without even checking it. While other companies send all their customer returns to a refurbisher.

    I think it’s worth warning people that this is not ‘typical’ when buying broken items on eBay. Generally the items you buy as lots that are ‘broken’ are much more likely to be unrepairable. If genuine this was a fairly fortunate purchase. And even so with no pads and no leads there is not a huge profit to be made selling these.

      Yeah I would like at least one FULL test with all the little things. I’m not asking it on all of them, but one would be nice.
      Like taking the time to check Bluetooth and WiFi, all the USB ports and the Ethernet port. Maybe even loading a game like Tomb Raider which is really GPU intensive even on the menu, so you can let it sit for a while and see how it reacts when it heats up (but I know that he doesn’t do that test on all consoles, it would be too long).
      Same thing on the Switch. I know that he checks plugged Joycons and unplugged Joycons and that he checks the touchscreen and the card reader, but it would be nice to see a full checkup, including stuff like the headphone jack and the SD card reader. OH AND A BIG ONE THAT HE NEVER SEEMS TO LOOK FOR ON THE SWITCH : if it works in a dock. Using a Switch on a bad dock sometimes doesn’t prevent it from charging, but stop it from outputting video from the USB C port.

    2 month ago my ps4 pro worked great, but for some reasons it started lagging and games loading took so long but it ran the games . I found that the problem was faulty HDD and bad sectors . i think you should check loading times to in order to be sure that it works totally fine

    I think the reason for the systems not being broken is when they were thought to be broken it could've been a whole host of other things broken instead, like the controller, the TV, the hdmi cable, or the disc being unreadable.
