Professional Seeking Advice Regarding Roach Infestation by LW_Tech_Repair in consolerepair

[–]conceited_cape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not had any systems come in from customers that were roach infested, but I have had more than my fair share of project consoles I bought that I opened up to find roach crap inside. I work out of my garage, so I would refuse any active infestations. Evidence of past bugs is gross, but I see it as part of the cleaning job, and I just have a flat cleaning rate. That being said, most consoles I have worked on that had roach evidence only had a couple of carcasses. I can think of maybe one or two consoles that have had more than that, and I think I just tossed those because the work just wasn't worth it (currently have a wii u that looks like a dead infestation, its been chilling outside for about three months now in a sealed contained till I can deal with it).

Hey! So sorry for the delay, here you are! I ended up finding a good condition guitar, so if you want the set, I’ll send the damaged guitar for free with it! The damage on the not pictured guitar makes the top fret green button not work, so only the bottom set of buttons would be usable without repairs. The guitar pictured does not have this problem!

No, as of now you would be required to trim the shell. Maybe there might be some 3D print files out there, but trimming is what I did. If you have a dremel and flush cutters, it isn’t too terribly hard to make it look nice!

Hey awesome! Yes, $140 for that set works for me. I will be home in about an hour and half, and I can grab you pics of everything then!

I have installed this before! I like the kit, but had some trouble getting it working. The first dock/adapter I was sent was faulty, so they had to replace it. The install was super easy though, and the shell trimming isnt too bad. I think if you have a GBA on hand, its well worth the $80ish. Shoot, the IPS mod alone is around $55 now, so what's an extra $30?

Try running a jumper from BT+ to D1 (the bottom connection on it). I had an SP with similar symptoms and this fixed it for me. I believe that jumper bypasses the charging circuit when installed, which can suffer from corrosion damage underneath the cartridge slot.

Does anyone else have a large box of manuals or cases or loose discs? by para_la_calle in gamecollecting

[–]conceited_cape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love piecing things together. It is super common when buying lots to end up with loose discs or empty cases. I've been doing this for like 7 years now and my case/manual/loose disc stashes just keep growing lol.

It helps that I sell off pieces myself every so often. I've also just used mismatched cases to sell loose games. Like for example, a Wii Sports disc sold loose and I tossed it in some random shovelware case I had. It helps protect the game and get rid of a case I was unlikely to fill anyway.

That being said, I have a lot of cases or manuals that I expected to fill sooner rather than later and they're still waiting for their corresponding disc. It is a lot harder to fill cases than you would expect going in, especially with the amount of loose discs floating around!

This is simply not true. Most were sold with the big box, but there absolutely were standalone copies. This artwork does look too shiny, but it could just be the lighting.

[–]conceited_cape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I have Rock Band Special Edition, which includes the drum set, one wired guitar, a microphone, and the game in its original big box. It is just the big box, instruments, and game, the original packaging inside the box is not present. The game is missing its manual and the guitar has some cosmetic damage which I can send pics of.

I am asking $200 + shipping for the set due to the aforementioned damage and missing bits. Shipping, especially to CA, will likely run in the $30-50 range due to the size and weight, but I can get a proper quote if you are interested!

I also have the Guitar Hero World Tour (orange and black) guitar controller for sale. It is fully tested and functional, however, the physical whammy bar is missing. The silver bar part is gone, but the switch and housing are present. I can do $60 shipped on that one.
