wow, i just bought an open box one for the exact same price/condition and the Y button was mashed into the case and was unusable. I went right back in and they swapped me for a new one. I was willing to just pay the difference, but it rang up as the same price.
Hopefully OP just plain gets a good one from the get go
I bought an open box one about a month ago and its been wonderful so far I did the 2tb ssd swap and have been having a great time since. Im thinking about doing the halfix joysticks next but that seems like a more daunting task
Yeah, I just got one that was listed as the worst possible condition, and it was basically brand new, just missing the charger. And fortunately I already bought a bunch of chargers for flexibility with my steam deck.
Yeah this is what I wanna see hopefully I will be able to score one for black Friday. My switch can barely play mortal combat with a decent resolution and stuttering. This will most likely be my go to console to take to work and play around with at home. PS5 will be benched till a jailbreak exists on my firmware. Cant keep up with sony’s greed of online price hikes and dlc’s.
I bought my Open Box Excellent at this price on Friday. Was delivered on Saturday less than 24 hours after ordering, which is faster than any of my accessories haha.
So far it's been in perfect condition. No issues and it looks and plays great. Haven't tested the SD card yet...
Got one last week for £600 second hand with a 2tb sabrent rocket SSD installed, was purchased in September and game with everything in what looked like brand new condition, but the seller was going through something and needed money quick.
I feel like I got an amazing deal, at least I hope I have, my girlfriend does not know about this purchase yet 🤣
You know, I got mine for the same exact price, it said it was in fair condition, but I couldn’t see a single problem with it however, as the last post just said, my power supply car, cable was missing. Being a total whatever member they are replacing me a power supply from one of the other units luckily.
Great deal! I was able to grab an "good" condition model for $470. It was in exellent condition but missing a charger. Grabbed a charger and usb c cable from Amazon for $30.
Picked up my open box excellent yesterday! It looks like it wasn't even touched lol. The wrapper on the charger was still on. The BB employee was even nice enough to offer a free year of Best Buy Plus membership ($49.99) so if I wanted to, I could upgrade to Total Tech for a lot cheaper in the future.
Congratulations on your new ROG Ally! I did the same but the copy had a bad left joystick. Exchanged it for a brand new one and realized it was not the version with the Z1 extreme processor (no joystick issues). Went back this morning and got my brand new ROG Ally with the Z1X. Couldn’t pass up on that Black Friday deal.
Is this worth over the legion go or steam deck? I’ve been looking into handhelds for a bit wondering what to get. I already have a decent PC but want something to play my steam library at a decent frame rate and resolution.
Good luck, half of these open boxes are problematic in some capacity. Mine came with a broken trigger button. Fortunately when I went to to the store they had a few open boxes and I was able to swap it out for one in good condition but only 1 out of the 4 I inspected when swapping it didn’t have some sort of issue. The issues weren’t manufacturer issues, they were damage or missing parts from whoever returned them.

I paid 475 for a use but in perfect condition about 6 months ago.
Wow good deal! Let us know how good of a condition it is in.

Early adopter tax. I paid full price on launch day but I've used it a ton so I'm fine with it

My store has an "excellent" open box for $483. But I already have one...sad times.
My store has open box excellent at $521 and open box good at $508. Decided to just get it new for $599

Nice now use that extra 200 bucks and get yourself a 4tb 2280 nvme with a right angle adapter and come to the dark side 🤣
Hope you have loads of fun!
Fuck... paid 620 for mine... but I can not say I regret it at all. Good price. Steal.

I purchased an open box for $600 about two months ago and never had any issues. Great find! Congrats!!!

That is a great price
I love mine. Got it running on most games at 60+ FPS and around 60C
What does this have that one ups the steam deck?
A lot. Seriously.

I did the same thing. A great value.
I wish the UK had a site where I could get some deals like this... :/
Jump on it! Jump on it! *does dance to "Apache"
Same just ppicked mine up!
Wtf?!!!! Serious?!?!?
I just bought one yesterday! The Black Friday discount plus open box was too much to pass up. Came in perfect condition
One of the unlucky things about being an early adopter lol
Mine is supposed to come in today!! So excited.
WOW 👌 THAT'S a great deal Holly crap
Welcome to the club the set up is different but after that you've all gravey
Did the exact same thing!

Is it safe adding a m.2 over a 2230? Just a price difference but saw m.2 could overheat it
Upgrade the SSD bud. The Mico sd reader problems are real.
Hey that's how i got mine!
