Another refurbished console from GameStop... here we go again! I bought a refurbished Nintendo Switch OLED from GameStop, and as per usual, there are some concerning aspects to the purchase. First of all, the refurbished Nintendo Switch OLED from GameStop is only $20 less than a brand new one... which is kinda wild. Is it really worth saving $20? Check out the video and let me know if you've ever purchased and refurbished consoles from GameStop.

The joy cons from my V2 non-OLED Switch have no wobble in my OLED Switch. It's possible those joy cons are just really well used and that's why they're wobbling. I thought maybe they're aftermarket since they have those stickers on them but then you said they have some scratches on them.

I have white oled and it does have slight wobble from day one. Is that normal? I bought second set of cons and it wobbled after one day of use. Just a slight wobble nothing major. This is my first switch so I don't know if that's normal. Also it does go up and down slightly if you push it. My friend has one too and it does go little up and down.

from my time back in the day working for them, i'm pretty sure when gamestop says "refurbished" it means that something was missing and they "replaced" the missing part/accessory. i believe that when they took the trade in for this oled it was missing the joycons so they just threw in a pair of pre-owned joycons into the box

I mean, it's illegal for them to sell you the improper model of joy cons and advertise the product as a Switch OLED. That's probably why they gave little to no fuss. It's the same thing as advertising and selling a 2022 Honda Civic, but the engine, wheels, side mirrors, and axels are from a 2007 Ford Focus. Completely illegal.

Gonna be the odd man out and disagree with the majority that advise avoiding buying used/refurb'd from Gamestop. Being a former employee and even before then I used to quite often buy used/refurb'd systems from GS. If you take advantage of the 1yr replacement warranty for an extra $20 it's beyond a steal if anything goes wrong with the system you just bring it to your nearest store that has a replacement and swap it out. Survived the 7th generation with the 360s re-occurring RROD issue doing just that. Ended up going through a dozen or so systems that otherwise would have had to been sent off to MS and paid for out of pocket.

It’s only a good deal if the price is actually good on the refurbished console. Every refurbished console I see from GameStop now a days is barely cheaper then new, so it’s not worth it. $350 brand new OLED switch with warranty >> $330 refurbished OLED switch + $20 warranty. We also just don’t have nearly as many issues with consoles now like we had with the 360, and even PS3

I remember getting a refurbished Wii U from GameStop back when Smash 4 was close to releasing. It was all good and the console itself worked as normal, up until I turned on the Gamepad. They messed something up with the wireless signal for the gamepad. The thing boots into an error screen most of the time. It takes like 3 attempts to turn on. I don't know if this is an actual Wii U gamepad problem, but the thing can sometimes have burn-in from the error screen. It goes away quickly, but it's a bizarre thing to see. I don't know what GameStop did to the gamepad.

The worst part? This was probably a lucky refurbished Switch. I bet good money they've sent out Switch's either just on the verge of drifting Joycon, or already with some from of Joycon drift. If they actually replace the sticks or something, then I'd be shocked. Either way, it's most certainly not worthwhile to buy a refurbished console for $20 less at any price point if it has scratches everywhere, if the components on and in the console are worse, and even if you just get a worse unboxing experience, or a worse experience as a whole.

Ty for ur video. U only reinforced the fact that GStop does not care about their customers. A few yrs bk I bought a NEW Xbox 1X & had to return it bk twice because it was obvious that it wasn't new. Only when I said "I'm opening it here b4 I leave & I am recording w/my cell" that I got a new one. Their excuse was.."things shift in the box during shipping to the store" which is a bunch of bull$#!t. I only purchase a wire or something small nothing major. Best place to buy, for me at least, is Best Buy. Take care & tysm once again.✌

You are surprised? My OG launch Switch from 2017 is still in great working condition despite a few scratches on both the dock and console itself along with wear which is to be expected on the Joy Cons after 1000+ hours of use with a ratio of around 60% handheld 40% docked. Also haven’t experienced any kind of drift.

My (non OLED) Switch is refurbished because it was all my Gamestop had and it works great! The right joycon does have a slight drift but nothing to prevent you from playing. I rarely play in handheld mode and use a wireless controller anyway, so I don’t care.
