    I’m a 39 year old mum from Australia. I know nothing about electronics.
    But I have a chronic illness which means that some days I can’t do much.
    As such, I spend A LOT of time on UA-cam and have found myself in some very strange corners of it.
    My algorithm throws up K-pop, historical cooking, dog grooming and retro console repairs.
    All this to say, that I’m very thankful for the content you create, and that sometimes it’s videos like yours that get me through the day.
    I appreciate you more than you know!

      Thankyou for your comment ❤ It's very easy for me to get caught up in all the UA-cam statistics, that sometimes I often forget that people do just enjoy the videos. Sorry to hear about your illness. Thankyou for watching and supporting in the way that you do, I appreciate you just as much 😊

    Hey Joey, have you considered using a series like this to upgrade your gear? You could use a set starting budget and each season's goal would be to obtain a certain piece of equipment. Just a thought I've had since you mention episode x for these.

    I need to say this Joey, but the first one was and is an easy fix, and there should be no problem in selling it. As long as you tell in the description, the truth, trust me if the price is good, someone will buy it.

    • @Morscode_Gaming
      @Morscode_Gaming 9 місяців тому

      Yeah but I think regarding profit and loss he also factors time spent in these episodes on each item. I fix plenty of fixable stuff but is it economically viable? No 😊

    • @MirceaD28
      @MirceaD28 9 місяців тому

      True, and I understand, but the damage is not great and not on BGA components. Just caps and resistors. Plus this way you can recoup some of the money invested. As it was, the console was working so it had potential. @@Morscode_Gaming

    I started my journey back in 2021 with this now, i blame you and tronicsfix.
    My history on this.
    PS4 = £35 (blod, irreparable stripped it and tried the washer fix) good spare parts managled apu only.
    Xbox series s = £22 spillage (the tiny resistor are shot smd) i could repair this bus smd resistors.
    Gamegear = Resistor hook instead of trace repair mangelef and dead.
    Gameboy pocket = corrosion on back of board.
    Successes
    Joypads = PS4, xbox1
    Switch lite (£65) = joystick repair
    Xbox one original = £9 dogey adapter
    Other notable failure
    GBP 2 and 3 = screen moded then and overspend.
    PSP = 4 successful screeb repair
    PS Vita = screen repair
    Have to say this right now ps vita is wow honestly sonycan create a repairable console.

    “Profit & Loss” who makes all the “Profit?” Well you buy off eBay, then you sell on eBay! The winners are eBay & PayPal. Profit from the sale when the person sold it to you, and again when you sell it on eBay. Who knows if this has changed hands three, four or five times previously? The only ones really profiting are eBay’s and PayPal, and it some cases, over and over on the same items. Just something to ponder on when people come to resell items they have bought on certain online auctions.
