I got a Wii "as-is" off e-bay. It came with everything but it said it had trouble accepting disc's

Anyway when it arrived everything in the box was BRAND NEW save the console itself.

Like someone had bought a new Wii when theirs broke, switched out the deck and returned it.

Anyway I had it fixed in less then 2 hours. Working perfect now only cost me $150! :mrgreen:

New low.

I'd shoop, but you people all know how that would end up...


At least 80% of /g/ acts better than you do.

It's a pretty good-quality set, too. Not one of those cheap Rock Band-style ones.

My best recent deal was the box I nabbed off of Craigslist for 30 bucks that contained:

2 working psones w/ 1controller
1 working PS1s
1 working Dreamcast w/ 1 contoller
1 working Gamecube w/ 1 controller
1 working N64
1 working Snes w/ 1 controller
Various required cords plus an oddity or two (composite to coax adapter, for instance)

Enough to keep my portable hobby busy for quite some time, though I really would like to do a PS2 portable after my N64's done.
