How Much Do I Make from Fixing Broken Consoles? | Episode 5

Check out the previous episodes below!

I buy faulty/broken gaming consoles on Ebay for as cheap as I can. I'm slowly learning how to fix these consoles, and then I attempt to sell them for a profit :) Did we make a profit in today's video?

Nicely done! I started doing this during lockdown but the eBay lottery was just too much for me to handle. Was constantly having to look for decent listings and found that a LOT of them were from repair shops selling them after realising the GPU was fried or something. Either that or the seller just being intentionally misleading about faults.

I feel like it might be better to source broken consoles locally, like just go door to door with flyers and wait for calls. That way there’s none of this eBay funny business from unscrupulous sellers.

Yes! A week day video! You made a profit of £252? That's sick man! Congratulations! Well done! And ofc I want to see more from this kind of videos. The more JDT Videos the better! Am I addicted? Maybe a little🤣 once again: great job mate!

1:47 Smashed it! Roll credits... 😝

Seriously though, awesome stuff!

For whatever reason, Wii's and DS's haven't managed a retro cult status. I wonder if they simply sold too well at the time - even the Queen had a Wii.

Great job joey. Yep you'll notice as you're levelling up in your repairabilities you'll start to see more profit. Another few months you'll be able to make a damn good monthly income from all this 🤑🥳

[jonathannovak]

Grats on the profit. Been really enjoying your videos and live streams, can't wait for Saturdays video.

[deanwalkington]

[timpeachey]

Are you paying tax on this? What about costs? Solder? Electricity? eBay fees? Postage?

[legobatman]

When you sell on ebay do you go for fixed price or auction?

[SaroDantra]

So what item(s) would you like to add to your toolkit moving forward? The microscope was a fantastic addition but is there anything else you've gpt ypur eyes on?

[SteezYQScop]
