I work at GameStop and the magic eraser consoles come from our refurbishment team in Grapevine. You can spot a “refurbished” console on the stickers it will say GSRF. I refuse to clean the consoles with a magic eraser at my store. The amount of people at this establishment that don’t know the erasers cause micro scratches is insane.
Because.. for some reason, people are still willing to sell their 4 month old consoles for 1/40th of the original price and ANY game for 8 cent cash or 10 cent strore credit, lol.
@@VonDutchNL I always wonder why people are even doing this. If I ever had a reason, I'd definitely sell current generation hardware on eBay because it's way more lucrative.
@@BlackFantasy470because that's a hassle people don't want lol someone gave me a PSP and Wii U for $45 because he just wanted them off his hands and not taking up space. And a customer gave me a Wii CIB and a PS3 slim for free because he just wanted them gone and at the time we weren't taking those consoles in for trade
@Rebnobfulroar exactly, it's way easier to just walk into a store and sell your stuff( even tho you'll be getting far less) vs going thru ebay and having to worry about shipping and all that other crap
so insane you mentioned the incredibles game for PS2 im playing right now through emulation on my steam deck lol, definitely one of the best licensed games ever
Someone made that series x their home console. So the console has all the licences from that account. Which must have included those two games you were seeing.
How are they so bad at packing stuff? Throwing a few bubbles on top of the console when the bottom and sides are just sitting right against the carboard box isn't protecting anything. They tried, I guess.
@@Rebnobfulroar I can't fault you for the crimes of the company. It isn't the little air pillows I take issue with, it's that there needs to be something between all sides of a console (kind of like it's suspended within the box) for it to actually be protected. If you look at any original packaging for consoles they do this with form fitted pieces a lot of the time so that no part of the console is ever in contact with the side of the cardboard. Even putting wadded up brown paper under, on the sides, and on top of a console will offer better protection than just throwing air pillows on top and calling it a day.
@@PowerSynopsis I fully agree there needs to be more protection, the refurb boxes have that separation you're talking about and I wish they sent us those to box used consoles in too instead of a big empty box. Most people don't know or don't care to go the extra step with paper around the system, and I think with the size of the box, there's no space for cables/controllers if we do that anyway
Seriously though! When I got my PS5 it was back when it was basically impossible to get. So I bought it in a bundle because it was the only way to get it. It came with an extra controller and 2 games....except it didn't. There was literally no extra controller or any games even when I paid around $200-$250 more because of it being the bundle. GameStop said the only option was to return everything and that they wouldn't give me a refund for the items I didn't get. Took arguing with them for about 3 months to get partial money back.
Gee no magic eraser ? I'm impressed. Love these videos always look forward to seeing what games come out of each console. Gamestop used to be the go to,but now it's like a last resort for me. Every once in a while i'll check out pawn shops and if I see some games i'll get them just got spyro dragon for the switch for black Friday sale they had for 30$
Last Monday, i found a Xbox 360 from goodwill and it still works and it was a Jasper. There was a free game in there which was Far Cry but i didnt pick it up since i already have a 360 elite
GameStop is the worse and people don’t give them enough hate. I don’t even know why channels like yours beat DKOldies like a dead horse while huge chains like GameStop are ALWAYS this bad!!!
I hate Gamestop. I bought a couple of new games from them. When they got here they were opened so I sent them back and told them I ordered new games. They sent me opened games again.
People dont want to work, its just getting worse. Theyre selfish, spoiled, and they blame the consumers for having to actually do their job. Ive had terrible jobs that none of these types of people would ever last in, and my motivation always came from customers. Treating people the best i could. Being the best at what i do, all despite not getting paid a lot. Its really sad that people are judt getting so lazy and careless. And we're the ones paying for it.
YES JACOB I LOVED THE INCREDIBLES GAME ON PS2!! I must’ve played and replayed every level like a thousand plus times but I never got sick of it as a kid 😂 and man remember the Dash level where you had to run after the bus man that gives me flashbacks 🫣😵💫
Let me guess, gamestop did a perfect job making people think their getting remotely usable consoles with basic accessories included. I could only imagine the anger if someone got a brand new console from gamestop that they spent 500 on and something happened to it (no fault of their own) and got a console with no controller as their replacement and a broken fan and very dusty. Sounds like gamestop 🤔
Tomorrow is the FULL “unboxing” of the 700lb lot of consoles that I bought for The Hampton Haul… make sure to tune in!
Looking forward to it!
@@Vincent_EvanoffSame
Send me one of those bro😢
I chuckled when you said Texas Load at the end
i watch all your vids and would really love to have one of the xbox series x.

7:49 I have seen that happen when the games were installed on an expansion card that had since been removed.
The GameStop handled that Series X done the process so wrong. I am in disbelief from that.
GameStop has fallen off so hard man. How they remain in business is beyond me.

@@VonDutchNLsometimes the trade credit isn’t that good but its way more than 1/40

Gamestop use to be the go to. Now it's like a last resort for me.
GameStop should be embarrassed. I bet GameStop management can't understand why their company in failing. These people are clueless.
Man I'm addicted to these vids
They probably used magic eraser on the controller, and did such a good job that it probably erased the controller.
Gamestop's employees pours pancake syrup on their consoles and lick it off clean and call it refurbished.
were back with the hundreds of untested consoles, very interesting to me.
That yellow honey stuff on the screen is probably Flux which indicates that there was work on a chip on the mainboard
bro no controller is crazy
The joystick being sticky could be the rubber degrading on the switch.
That winnie the pooh gunk on the switch made me shiver with that sick feeling 🤮
so insane you mentioned the incredibles game for PS2 im playing right now through emulation on my steam deck lol, definitely one of the best licensed games ever
lol that’s funny. I need to go back and play it again
Oh dear, imagine buying another console and they didn't include a controller for that one.
6:30 I just started playing that game lol 😂 found it at Value Village in good condition
I don't think there are many people left that care at gamestop. They've run off all the good employees by now.
I know, right? I mean, I haven't worked there in over 20 years!
love ur content bro I've been watching since testing random games on ps4 ps3 etc ❤
Jacob. They are required to tell you that if there is something wrong with the console, you take it back to the store ...
Love these videos. They always make my Friday more epic then what they already are.

games were on external drive , main drive has the cover infor thats why is shows

I work at gamestop and they don't give us anything to pack it better. It's either those air packets, or brown paper

As someone who works at GameStop, this is embarrassing. We would have never let the switch be sold with that residue on the joycons

It's funny I am so used to u saying Texas road and seeing Hampton haul is a new thing for me lol
gamestop employee got hungry in the morning shift while putting the switch on display
Imagine opening the switch lite and it had no controllers 💀
When you reset an xbox you can choose to keep games and apps downloaded so it just removes the accounts
Geez, no magic eraser? I'm impressed...
Ikr
Gamestop is saving money not giving a controller LOL
Tell me why i jumped when the screen cracked lmao
Lots of their products feel used even if they’re new
I remember buying a new copy of persona 5 royal for the PS5 but it looked like it was pre owned
Last Monday, i found a Xbox 360 from goodwill and it still works and it was a Jasper. There was a free game in there which was Far Cry but i didnt pick it up since i already have a 360 elite
Nice!
No controller we're off to a good start
No new DKoldies Videos? 0:37
Yes it is 2004 and I have it and still play it till this day
fairly new to the channel, so what is the Hampton Haul lol
GameStop is the worse and people don’t give them enough hate. I don’t even know why channels like yours beat DKOldies like a dead horse while huge chains like GameStop are ALWAYS this bad!!!
First! Hahaha, finally we got the name of the series. Jacob is such a tease... 😂
Haha
I bought two consoles from gamestop and when I got them, they did work for one month but the next month they stopped working.
What the hell kind of packing was for the X id be pissed if the console was just laying on the box. With nothing in-between em .
THERE WAS A HAPTIN HAUL ?
I hate Gamestop. I bought a couple of new games from them. When they got here they were opened so I sent them back and told them I ordered new games. They sent me opened games again.
I wonder if anyone has ever found anything illegal on a pre owned console
He found pp pics on a Wii u
i found crazy stuff
NGL i would of been more upset getting the console with no controller especially if i didn't have any extras 🎮 like wth am i gonna use.. a potato?! 🥔
I like your glasses man, they are dope!
I bought a used series x from gamestop and they didn't even reset the console had the persons games and accounts on it still.
So you think somebody that makes $9 an hour is going to worry about a how dirty something is when it gets traded in...lol
You create a narrative from the get go.
Where does this man get so much money!
Did anyone catch that at the end he said “texas load” and not “hampton haul”?
Great chest ahead?
GameStop getting worse every year. And they weren’t ever great.
Can’t u have the store ship u the missing controller? (And you pay shipping)
Why would he pay for shipping for something that should have been inside the box once received? If anything, they should offer him free shipping
You can bring it back to any gamestop
The Connecticut Connection.
They probably used ethernet cable and not wifi if used ethernet it wont show old internet
Hampden haul? EHEHEHEH
Yeah my bad bro, I got a little excited with them 🤭
LOL i got my ps4 from gamestop😭 they said it was 1tb of storage (it is NOT)
You keep Game Stop in business. They should have gone the way of Sears.
I love you’re channel man
You got a Spider-Man Switch lite
The Hampton Haul 2.0 the quest for an xbox controller

I played the incredibles for PS2 that game was so much fun
Poor spider
Bro I buy some preowned ps4 for like a year now cause I don’t want to wait ten days on Amazon so yh GameStop is good if u want 1tb for a ps4
I just ordered a ps4 pro from Stop Games, is it worth it with the quality and durability of the console?
@ yea pending on the condition and stuff I now have a pc so I retired all of my consoles
I really enjoy these videos
