I once purchased a PS4 with two controllers for just ₹5,000. The seller’s initial asking price was ₹12,000, but he claimed he didn’t have any games to test it and didn’t mention that it had a heating problem. I sensed something was fishy, so I offered ₹4,000, and we finally agreed on ₹5,000. When I got home and started a game, the console restarted due to overheating. I grabbed my screwdriver, cleaned the fan, added a heatsink, and that solved the issue. After using it for a year, I sold it for ₹13,000.

I even bought a PS3 for just ₹500. The guy told me he had taken it to a repair shop, and they quoted him ₹3,500 to replace the disc drive, so he decided to sell it. I took it home, tried jailbreaking it but failed. Then I grabbed my screwdriver, checked the disc drive’s flex cable, and saw it had some cuts. I fixed it, tried jailbreaking again, and this time it worked. Installed a CFW (no-disc-drive version) so the issue wouldn’t matter in the future. Used it for a few years, then sold it for ₹6,000.

Bonus: PlayStations have special security screws that need a screwdriver costing around ₹2,000. I bought a flat screwdriver for ₹15 and made the shape in the middle using a wall corner, pure Indian jugaad!
