      Really? I find it kind of sad. He’s clearly obsessed with tearing a small company apart when they are one of many, many, many retailers ripping off their customers, and also not, trying to find a middle ground. So, while it was amusing the first three times, I find it worrying that the man cannot let this go. Is it simply because he’s exhibiting some kind of obsessive-compulsive behavior, or is it because he’s looking at his TH-cam analytics and seeing positive numbers from these videos?

    As I've said before, I had 1 order with them. They were the cheapest for the GAMES I bought. And they were in good condition. Medium priced compared to past sales in other stores/sites. And I was happy with my purchase.
    But, I saw their prices for consoles and would never pay that much. The fact that they come like that in the reviews is disgusting and ripping peeps off. I am totally onboard with you all exposing em.
    Their sticker of warranty is illegal, FAKE, and a scare tactic.

    The DKOldies Saga continues, as it looks like their website is under attack. Being nosey, I spoke to an employee via their live customer service chat, and he said their team is ‘trying’ to fix the problem. As someone who used to build retail websites for a living, it looks like whoever attacked their website destroyed the website’s database. The website boots, but all the product pages are empty. It’s a database issue. If they don’t have a backup of their database, they are screwed. Lol

      It honestly wouldn't hold up in court. They're selling you something they aren't doing.
      Got some examples of when a class action waiver may not be admittable in court
      When the class action waiver was included in a non-negotiable consumer contract of adhesion.
      When the likely claims would involve a small amount of damages.
      When the claims alleged a scheme to cheat consumers.
      These are just some examples, and I'm sure actual lawyers/people with legal knowledge can correct me if I'm wrong

      Im afraid if you want that, for the most part you will have to probably find a place that is local. And a store that charges FAIR prices. Not constantly sits at their computer and tries to get the most expensive eBay price for a console. That is rare now as WATA and other game auctions have driven the prices thru the roof.
      Or, get a half decent console, sit down with some TH-cam how to restore videos and do it yourself. I do some restorations for the locals where I live and unfortunately with the complexity of newer generation consoles, it can be expensive to completely "restore" to new or near new condition. But what DK Oldies does is disgusting. They "charge" for restoration, but do "NO" restoration. And they profit hoping people won't look inside their console.

    I will admit, that’s my Xbox review video. I made one of those review videos for fun after I found their TikTok and was doing an impression of Joey while I opened my OG Xbox I bought. I was naive to prices being a new gamer and just enjoyed their content. I made that video in August of last year and if you go back to it on their page it’s a longer video that Hunter & Britt did a stitch with. Was I surprised to seeing it used again with everything going on now, no, not at all, but heavily edited. I was honest in the comment of the reposted video & said the outside came clean, shipping was fast, prices were high, & it booted right up and still works. I’ve never opened the console to check the inside. Not until I’ve seen all these reviews from you guys did I think to do that. Thank you by the way for really putting the consumer first. I thought that’s what they were priding themselves on but it’s not and these desperate attempts to double down on lies is very disappointing. Love your page and keep doing what you’re doing & thank you for being an honest, reliable source. I see the light now!

    Weird is when I had an email exchange with them. I mentioned that I had an entire bookshelf of old strategy guides. I asked if they would be interested in them. The person told me they dont deal in them. I noted in my email that I noticed they were becoming valuable on ebay. A few days later I got an email again. Unprompted... The email asked if I still had them and was I still interested in selling them. I was then asked to ship them all to them, and they would look them over and give me an offer on them.
    Why were you not interested and then two days later you are reaching out to me and interested in them. Also, why would I pay to ship 600 lbs of books without any kind of a guarantee in price? Needless to say; it seemed strange and fishy to me. So I decided to hang onto them.

    If you've purchased a product from DKOldies you need to contact the office of the attorney general for PA and file a criminal complaint of fraud and conspiracy against the company. And, because they're presumably using the United States Postal Service to ship products and doing business across state lines, there may be a strong mail fraud case in federal court. But you absolutely have to contact the state of PA Attorney General and file a criminal complaint first to get the ball rolling. The more people who do this the better as it will encourage the office of the attorney general to take the matter seriously and get a more expedited response. This will also help prevent others from being taken advantage of moving forward.

    Even in their response telling a customer that opening the console doesn't void the warranty, DKOldies still managed to give the person warranty policy information that violates the Magnuson--Moss Act. Self-repair (the main reason for the "no sticker rule"), tampering, or modification are not legal reasons for voiding a warranty. Now, if you are modifying or repairing with unofficial parts you are potentially giving them a legal defense for voiding a warranty, but they still have to demonstrate that whatever you did actually damaged the product. They cannot refuse to warranty the product simply because you repaired or modified it.

      Took a few hours to refurbish my 2nd hand Xbox One X. A lot of the time was waiting for the external plastics to dry. Also removing the caked thermal paste on the Scorpio chip. Reapplying paste and reassembly wasn'r too bad.
      My 360 slim and PS3 superslim took even longer. Sadly I couldn't go as far as deliddinging the IHS for either (haven't got the skill) and had to settle for only replacing the dried up thermal paste on top. But its pretty involved work if done properly, and half the time I wouldn't trust a reseller to do the job properly anyway.

    What's really boggling my mind about this whole situation is how no one caught onto this until recently this is remarkable. I mean I guess you wouldn't truly understand how widespread the situation was unless every single person was opening their console (like they are now) to look inside. I mean the idea that they've been doing this for literally years with absolute impunity is kind of insane and yet it doesn't surprise me knowing how the world is these days.
    I mean this is one of those hiding in plain sight kind of scams like how did this go on for so long we're talkin not just over a decade but nearly two these guys have been in business like what is happening here?!

    • @odoplaydead5012
      @odoplaydead5012 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I feel they got away with it for so long because the average buyer doesn’t know anything about gaming hardware. Like Rich pointed out in a few videos, their main target demographic are people who use to play these games and wanna just buy them to relive memories, and are willing to part with the money to do that. They don’t think about opening it up to see if it’s really clean or refurbished, and any defects they find on the outside they are willing to forget. This type of customer base that’s willing to just buy and not question might also explain why DKO is having so many issues trying to damage control. They’ve never had anyone call them out before.
      Think DKOldies did this to themselves with the TikToks and TH-cam shorts. Putting a spotlight on themselves and drawing attention to themselves. Then some gaming TH-camrs who actually know about the hardware decided to start testing their claims, and now it’s snowballing out of DKO’s control. They are being exposed as scammers and frauds, so they resort to trying to defame the people calling them out.
