Do you think they intentionally scammed me, or do you think it was an honest mistake?
thay scamed you
It could go either way, but I think this one was just a matter of a clueless employee (clueless in terms of gaming) making the listing and assuming it was brand new because it was sealed with some tape. Like I could see my mom doing this with no ill intentions 😂
@@jrob0021 maybe a clueless employee?
They tried to scam you 🤦🏽♂️ but at least you got some good content out of it ,well sort of at least
I mean it's goodwill... So I'll say scam
I bet the guys at Goodwill rub their hands together when they see your name come through on the order 😂
And they probably get together and say how can we screw with him this time boys?
😂😂
@@jrob0021 are you able to get refunds on these stuff?
which doesn't make any sense, I mean he is a YTuber likely to destroy their reputation if they mess up.
🤣🤣
Goodwill is becoming nothing but a scam. I was in my local Goodwill recently, and the prices are bordering retail, if not more.
Idk depends on which goodwill. I’ve been to some that only have garbage and at others you can get like 8 really nice items of clothing for $20-30 or so
The goodwills in my area have been scams for years now
Just like the car market. I was looking at a new 2023 Type R, and multiple dealerships are asking $5k+ over retail.
It depends on various locations I actually worked with a very young guy who was my price manager and he priced a item $400 instead of the $ 100 I mentioned ( it was originally priced at about 900 brand new I felt like that's too greedy for a company that gets stuff free overall.
Go to value village instead
$300 bucks is insane 😂
You can get the Xbox Series S for that much LOL
It just keeps happening! At this point a majority of your channel is just you getting ripped off 😂❤
Lol yeah I actually went a pretty long while without anything too crazy happening, but the past week or so has been rip off after rip off lol. Got another tomorrow as well 😂
Right? This dude is a professional scammer - but on the opposite end of scam
Thats the point of his channel...
@@rezabijnen1 dude - it’s literally not 💀 but at this point it might as well be hahaha
Well he kind of asks for it, always buying from the sketchy sellers and websites. I remember he bought that xsx on eBay and it had no pictures, reviews or ratings. It turned out legit but like I said earlier, he literally asks for it lol. Good content for me 😂
This is why Goodwill's policy of sending all of the high dollar items to the Ebay store is bs. They don't really know what they're doing.
The entire business is kind of BS. They promote their "hiring of mentally handicap folks" but really, guarantee you it's because of the wage they can pay them. Closer to 0 than minimum wage. AND their entire inventory is donated... free besides labor costs of sorting and overhead of building/land/office/insurance etc. Yet they play up their "charity" image and what not. It's all pretty, underhanded in my opinion.
Thats a good thing dummy.
You wil always 100% of the time get your money back if you send the item back. No returns accepted or not, if they dont want a strike on their account they'll give you your money back.
i havent had a problem with them ever.. :( they tend to be accurate and post pics
Depends on the area. They have different districts/LLC subsidiaries.
The one in mid-Ohio like Ashtabula/Medina, etc. has a dozen or so stores with a rewards card and rewards points. lol.
Meanwhile the Goodwills down in Cincinnati are HOT. TRASH. Overpriced everything.
I've had the best results at Goodwills around Louisville, Kentucky. Super nice employees, great stuff, and good prices. lol.
For testing purposes, I have revived red ringing 360s for about an hour, by removing the shell, disc drive, and plastic shroud that covers the heatsink, and going over it with a hairdryer for ten minutes (full heat). Then letting it cool and usually thats enough to find out what dash a console is on.
Just wrap it in a towel
@@dannysmith8549 that's actually not good that can ruin the motherboard
@@coltongamings1239 did it for 5+ years
Eh that damages the board in the long run. It only revives them by flexing the board enough to briefly get the flip chip to make contact.
If it's red ringing at all, get a refund from whoever sold it to you. Since unless you have the equipment and tools to reball and/or completely replace the CPU/GPU it's dead AF.
Your videos are awesome loved them for years you’ve always had guts to do things like this and have had tons of consoles so this was a treat as always being there’s no limit at all anymore to the odds 😂😂👏🏼
I had a feeling it was red ringed. In my experience I’ve seen it where a 360 red rings when it was probably a few years old, and the owner puts it away and it sits until the owner finds it again and gets rid of it. The low amount of usage explains why the usb door was still intact. And it was made before Late Falcon, anything before that are the common red ringers.
I hadn't used my 360 for like over 10 years n plugged it in last week. Works like a charm.
what is late falcon?
@@onehitwonder4470 2008 July- 2008 October right before jaspers appear in stores in November
Falcons re actually just as reliable as earlier jaspers if taken care of and not beat up
@@ryanabarca8616 he means a lot of people who got red ringed of death put their consoles away. Not that everyone who puts their consoles away have red ring of death.
Goodwill used to be a good place to get good deals. I used to spend a couple thousand a year before COVID. Now everything is overpriced.
Same here
I'm still cheap bro, buy me if ya like
Dang! Exactly what I was gonna say! I use to buy VCR's for like $4-$6, now $12-$15. Receivers $8-$10, now $20-$40. However, they were not priced by brands. The better brands were not priced any higher than the trash brands. Before covid there was some room to buy things for resell and make a decent profit. Now if its something you are buying for personal use there are still some good deals but if you are looking at reselling it not much room for profit.
Well the red ring of death definitely brings back haunting memories.
06:52 needs to be an infinite loop 😂
Don’t forget that I’m giving away a blades dashboard 360 AND a PS5 😳 link in the description
They do that a lot at flea markets here wrap a console in some plastic wrap and they say it’s new lol
😂😂 so messed up
Remember when consoles came with all that you needed to play and use? Pepperidge Farm and the Member Berries remember.
These videos are great, keep uploading more Goodwill console videos.
“I didn’t pay crazy money for it, i paid 300 bucks for it.” hmmmm lol
Keep up the 360 videos haha. Never gets old!! Great channel brother
Your videos kept coming up on my recommendations and I finally decided to check u out and I am pleasantly surprised :)
I’ve subscribed for years now, and all of a sudden I see all these unboxing videos published 1 month ago. You must have done tons of unboxings in December
Still a great video bro sorry that happened to you! I've have some good luck when buying something from goodwill on ebay, but what happened to you that's crazy they did that!!
It is possible that they could’ve done this intentionally, maybe they taped the box up
But maybe someone donated it and they just didn’t put the time in to check if it was genuinely sealed
lol I'm surprised Goodwill actually sent you one. I got lucky and bought one from a guy on the street and it actually worked
Me too, got lucky, literally selling it on the sidewalk for like 5 bucks.
OMG. That System of a Down bit was amazing. xD
One thing you should do is look up the specific Goodwill who shipped it. Some are so bad (the Florida ones have some of the dirtiest systems) and a few are amazing.
Ones in Florida are pretty much shady as heck. I have seen the employees leave with the DVDs and games and the store is left with the pottery and glassware only grandparents buy.
Loved demos as a kid, Cloning Clyde was a highlight. Kingdom for Keflings was awesome as well
Omg nah ion think yaw realize how close of skrew up that was 😂 6:45
7:02 Oh man, love that Blaze Dashboard. Old school dude, old school nostalgia.
I remember wrapping my 360 in a towel, it worked for a little bit longer surprisingly. Ahhh, the good ol days of gaming.
Jacob u finally started recording new 360 vids and i like that.Thanks Jacob for another great 360 vid.
Could you make a video of what happens when you try to play newer Xbox 360 games that were released for the Slim 2010, and Elite 2013 on the Xbox 360 console with Blades Dashboard
I played so many demos on the 360 back in the day it’s honestly crazy.
I played so many demos on the 360. My favorite being the cliffhanger mission in MW2
you can fix the red ring permanently by replacing the old gpu heatsink with the newer heatsink.
half the reason the launch edition consoled overheated was a poor heatsink, microsoft replaced the
heatsink with a new one that contained a secondary heatsink and heatpipe.
This is incorrect, flip chip failure from thermal cycles, not bad cooling, caused the red ring of death.
Cooling mods don't help and only make the console louder. Replacing heat sinks make it quieter but won't really lower your temps much.
Thermal paste replacement is necessary though.
@@shanez1215truth. The amount of misinformation is wild
If the its first revision mobo you can plug the power cable in like 99% of the way and it will RROD, push it in hard and see if it changes
$337 for a broken xbox 360 is definitely what I would call crazy money.
IKR
Exactly 😂
I did play alot of demos and indie games on the 360 back in the day, good times
I definitely rocked some demos back in the day I remember some demos would let you do quite a bit
NOIB - here in the UK, is usually referred to as "Not in Original Box"
that debug led trick blew my mind. i didnt know that was a feature LOL
Good thing you were able to return it
I went to to goodwill once my brother wanted a xbox 360 controller we payed it we test it out and the joystick kinda drifts for a moment but still works
Remember kids, always confirm the Power Brick included is the proper voltage.
Also check if there is a disc inside while its on before you raise it up or tilt it.
Sad you had this dilemma, I bought 2 from the Goodwill for 12.99 and the other two for 9.99 and head better luck. No issues but had to get power supplies that ended up costing more than the consoles themselves.
But before anything , make sure to not buy junk like this. For 300 bucks you can get an Xbox Series S instead Kids.
I'd bet the system didn't even match the box since forza and ultimate alliance didn't have save data on the hdd.
Naaahhhhh😂them cords sent me 🛼 lmao 1:30
That old menu, tho. I haven't seen or thought of that old menu style in years.
Goodwill is like gamestop sometimes it's like why did I buy this junk lol
i had 3 360s do the ring of death on me i remember i had to use the towel trick to make em work until they finally gave out all the way
Love the user 360 videos!
Marble Blast Ultra on 360 was an amazing game, It's awesome that it's on that console!
Wild. Absolutely wild purchase!
As far as Demos go i feel like PS1 when pizza places were giving out demo discs with every pizza was the Golden Age. Demo discs from either Dominoes or Pizza Hut are where i first played Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider 2 & Parappa The Rapper.
That sucks about your Xbox having RROD, Yes! I played loads of demos on Xbox 360, I had a subscription to OXM at the time since it came with demo discs and I still have around 30 of the discs.
My initial thought would be “NIOB” when buying from a second hand store like goodwill that gets all its products through donation it stood for “NOT in original box” but idk that’s just me lol
Yes! Demos were awesome I played the dead rising demo so much before I could afford the full game
Yeah yes sir I did play demos on the 360 I still do this day amazing videos by the way I love it
Played the demos on PS1 but on PS2 I had a side hustle in high school and could afford any game I wanted
I don't even have a blades dashboard 360 in my collection, and my heart dropped when I saw that system update message pop up with the cursor highlighting the "update" option.
Got Chibi-robo for 95$…I was shocked on arrival because the disc was flawless as if never played and the case seemed new with at least 3 to 4 small scratches and no signs of age. Of course in classic fashion the manual was missing but oddly enough the other documents you find in the game case remained! All together it was in mint condition COMPARED to the previous copy i owned as a kid which i bought from Gamestop.
fuggin love that game/ The Gamecube one right, not the DS?
@@southpark159753 yes the gamecube version. I got extremely lucky at goodwill.
Hell yeah I played demos seemed like every game had one back then those were the good old days you try a demo first to see if you like the game instead of buying a game now and hoping it's not a dumpster fire 😂
skate demo and the mirrors edge demo went hard AF.
I thinking about the next video: how did I get RROD from an Xbox that I bought from goodwill
I dont think it was a scam. Goodwill just doesnt know what half of the stuff that comes across their doorstep is. I once got a perfectly working white Destiny Limited Edition PS4 console for $18 because they thought it was a DVD player and labeled it as such.
The free demos is the whole reason I got Xbox Live. I got my 360 in 2007 and played offline for 3 years, and then had Xbox Live with no gold for a year just playing demos and messaging friends. Then I went to my cousins house and he had MW2 and Xbox Live Gold. We played that for the entire weekend, only sleeping maybe 4 hours. I had $150 I'd saved up from Christmas and Birthdays and begged my grandma to take me to gamestop the entire week.
She eventually caved and I got MW2 and a year of gold. The rest was history, my childhood consisted of getting home from school and playing COD until I had to go to bed.
I'm not proud of it, but I even took my sisters iPod and sold it to gamestop when staying at a friends house to buy MW3 when it came out. She thought she lost it. I told her a couple years ago now that we're adults and she called me some names but laughed it off.
Jeez I have a working 360 I got from goodwill for $40. Disk tray struggles sometimes but persistence gets it open. At least it doesn’t have RRoD. I can’t believe people are spending $300 on a broken 360. I need to hold on to mine I think I got value here lol. It’ll be the family heirloom.
When i use to work at goodwill alot of the people ( Mostly managers priced highly priced items ) who price the things have absolutely no idea what they are doing. they just price it from how they see it or what they think it is like. Especially consoles Or Eletronics.
Yikes, that red ring brought back bad memories, I had like almost 3 360s that had that problem. After getting PS3 (still works today) I never went back to Xbox
That sucks I only had 1 red ring. But Microsoft sent you a new console absolutely free so I didnt lose out on anything but a couple weeks of gaming, Microsoft could've not offered refunds but they did, I remember when the yellow light of death happened w Sony they remained silent and offered nothing and tried sweeping it under the rug I stand by Microsoft. Glad I did cuz the 360 was the best console in my opinion, but honestly I feel like rn Xbox is starting to fall off, which is why I got a PS5 ,back than Xbox live was the superior service, now they are pretty much tied , but I prefer PS cuz I'm sick of ads on my dashboard on series S, playstation is definitely a GAME CONSOLE whereas Xbox is more of an entertainment console .
Xbox definitely straying far from what they used to be
Feeding Frenzy! What a score 😂
I played Demos and bought magazines just for the demo
Discs.
Can’t you mod a Xbox 360 with a usb? I have one but can’t tell if it’s jtag or rgh
Bro that HD has Marble Blast Ultra…the absolute best marble game ever made
The force unleashed demo was my go to back then.
Dude I played the Phantasy Star Universe Demo for almost 6 years lmao it was great ! I would love to buy a 360 off you bro
I loved playing demos because they let you try it first before buying
Another one? I mean awesome video dude
I laughed a little when it red ringed, not at you but at the fact I was thinking it cant get any worse and bam red ring
I’m surprised anyone was even able to watch this video with an ad playing every 30 seconds
Crazy I think I've played all of those games...
I got a xbox 360 slim from goodwill for $60 and it looks brand new and clean asf
There wasn't even a table in the box either 😂
Man I thought this dude was Deacon from Days Gone when I first seen him 😂
You could have guessed it would go wrong just by the look of the packaging on the picture... but did you really purchase it without afterthoughts? I wouldn't bet on that.
I member playing ultimate Mk3 like a week or 2 b4 release on 360 because MS accidentally released it ahead of time then pulled it. Who members that? Also memba MS had a policy that all the arcade games had to be less than 50mb or less to fit on mem card or somethin early on in 360 life. They then lifted it to 150mb but im not sure when they lifted the cap on that size as well.
Most people would have a Bio that would say “Im a Boss or something”
YeahImaBoss413 is signed on to say, that’s accurate ! Lol 😂
I 100% know they look up everything. They know it is not new.
Oof. The first RRoD on your channel that I know of just happens to be on a supposed "new" console
I remember playing Xbox 360 but version slim. and I play Trials HD demo and Hydro Thunder demo🤙🏻💪🏻
I remember as a kid my Xbox got the red ring
And somewhere it told me to wrap it in towels for however long 😂😂
And it ACTUALLY WORKED LOLLL
“You rUnied my free toy!!!” Sponge bob square pants
Man, it’s like those numbnut sellers on EBay assuring the item is new and sealed when the pictures they provided are as clear as day clearly shows the items OUTSIDE of the package. So it is certainly NOT sealed, and 100% used.
Jacob keeps buying from goodwill no wonder they’re still up and running 😂
He's keeping them in business just like Gamestop.
Bro not even 30 seconds in I knew you got scammed!! 😂😂
Why is it always the zypher consoles that get 0102 ive never seen a red ringed zephyr with an error code thats not 0102
Recently You've made so many videos about you buying something from goodwill. I think you're addicted to buying things from goodwill.
I always played demos I didn't have alot of money for games I know I did buy a few games one of them being gta 4 and actually I still only use a xbox 360 to this day
New items at Goodwill is a myth like the fountain of youth or BONO! 😂
Man paid $330 for a $20 old used console
*Amazing* video!
That's why you always got to check things before you buy.
Check the goodwill website for yourself. Low res photos, bad descriptions, etc. very easy to be misled. There was no way for me to know this wasn’t going to be brand new.
Why in the earth those this console look identical to the new video? Any explication?
