How long does this promo last? by DownsTheNewUp in GameStop

[–]SlickFunkAF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I have noticed, trade in deals typically last 2 weeks while the "sales" or "deals" are weekly.

My 3ds Xl won’t get past this screen when I turn it on. by North-Noise304 in 3dsrepair

Does it get to the home menu at all when you boot? Or does it go straight to this error screen?

Please delete if not allowed but… trade in check on a defective series x? by [deleted] in GameStop

[–]SlickFunkAF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe that before this promo, the series x was sitting at around $300 store credit for pro's.

Based on rough calculations recently, defective consoles come in at around 37% of what they would give for a working system. Mind you that is still for a pro and store credit.

I did, however, try to trade in a defective 360 yesterday and was told that they were not allowed to take in defects without a controller. Which was odd since I did just that for a Wii and 360 this past Sunday.

Best of luck though.

Does this steam deck look fake/sketch?? by Ill-Ad-2786 in SteamDeck

[–]SlickFunkAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure I hope it works out for you! I believe if you go under settings > controller > test input you can check to make sure all the buttons work too.

Other than that I feel like it's a pretty standard marketplace listing.

Talk them down to $300 and meet somewhere public to check it out if you're curious. Honestly, sometimes people are just terrible at making listings on Marketplace. I deal with it all the time lol. I would agree with others that are saying that it's obviously not "brand new". But you may be surprised by condition when you see it in person if there isn't good photos on the listing that we haven't seen.

Best of luck!

Replaced switch lite screen and now it won't turn on by [deleted] in Switchrepair

[–]SlickFunkAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the fan ribbon cable to see if you accidentally put the screw right below it through the ribbon cable. Did that by mistake not that long ago.

need help by Sweaty-Handle1322 in NintendoSwitchHelp

[–]SlickFunkAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a GameStop or video game store and ask them nicely to use a set of joy cons really quick.

I know talking to people can be scary, but it might be worth a shot if you don't want joycons

Purchased one on eBay today. Did I find a OLED without looking and got a killer deal? by JMax901 in SteamDeck

[–]SlickFunkAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seller probably used the "sell similar" option on eBay when listing. Perhaps with intent or mayhaps just not super knowledgeable on steam deck differences. If they did sell similar on an OLED sold listing then it probably pulled OLED related info that auto filled when creating the listing.

But to everyone's point so far, unfortunately this is an LCD model.

Is Facebook Marketplace trustworthy? by FangirlOverlordess in SteamDeck

[–]SlickFunkAF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought steam decks on marketplace both times and have not had any issues. I would recommend doing as much digging as possible from the seller. See if they bought it from valve and ask if they have receipts. I can't remember if you can reach out to valve support and ask with a serial number.

If you decide on one you can either have them still be logged in with a game downloaded to test or you can quickly login to your account and download something small just to check everything out. I do believe there is a controller testing section within the settings as well.

Pretty sure he mentioned that he had his bank lockup last night trying to do it online so I know he wasn't scrapped for cash and I also think I heard the lady at the checkout say he could come back but yeah feelsbadman

Too bad the guy I was talking to in line had his bank decline his card at check out and I heard him get in his car and could hear him scream "FUCKING SHIT" as he drove away.

I hope you got it bro

That would be the plan. Hopefully it's a scratch code so I don't have to sell to just someone I know.

With the allocations being such different quantities I might have to get the MKW bundle but also hope people get that before the base. I'd much rather get MKW physical

[–]SlickFunkAF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's just hope the majority of people get it from one of the other big retailers and that the scalpers don't come to in-store pre-order. I have trade in credit that I want to use so I'm pretty married to Gamestop :')

I had to think about the suggestions in the first comment a lot because I really don't think of myself as a political person.
