    the real scam is how i keep watching these videos of austin buying the same items over and over again
  • Of course this pops up as I’m waiting for an Amazon Renewed product to be delivered.

    Anything "renewed or refurbished" online is a gamble. But with companies like Amazon they have easy return policies. Unlike DK oldies and such

    I worked in returns for amazon, dusting it off and putting in a new box if its demaged is all they do to get the best numbers as fast as possible.
  • 3:48 As someone that used to own a fire hd 10, it's not worth getting the hd 8. It's smaller, slower, and doesn't have the hd 10 party trick which is to act like an Alexa when plugged into it's charger. Seriously, it worked so well as an Alexa echo show device put only broke out of it when it needed to do something only a tablet could do, but otherwise, it works better than actual echo shows. Now, with amazon not really caring about their line of devices, I wouldn't touch any of them with a ten foot pole.
  • Earlier this year I bought a Certified Refurbished iPhone 14 Plus and Watch Series 8 from Amazon. They both arrived in good shape and function perfectly. As long as you do your research buying refurbished is nearly as good as new.
  • As a person who purchases lots of Amazon returns, I can say for certain if there's an LPN sticker on there, it was returned and resold whether directly back to you or to an "Amazon returns" liquidation shop.

    Each cycle count represents the number of times a battery has been drained and charged. It's important to note that the decrease doesn't necessarily mean that the battery was drained to 0% -- if someone used their battery for only a few minutes and the battery drained from 100% to 99%, and then the owner charged the laptop again, that would still count as 1 cycle. So all cycle counts are not created equally.
  • That edit with the cat listening to music with beats was hilarious lol, literally ONLY bass.

    I have always been told to be wary of buying TVs “renewed” because you dont know if its the original panel, would be interested to see a video on those 😊
  • I actually bought a 12.9 Inch 2018 iPad pro Wi-Fi + Cellular renewed in "acceptable" condition and when it arrived it would've been mint of not for some scratched by around the USB port! It even came with a screen protector and folio case (Which I was unaware of), it would've been perfect of it came with a first party charger. Mind you I only paid $420 too! Amazon Renewed is pretty decent imo, tho I usually get my stuff off eBay.

    I bought a ton of stuff from Amazon renewed, my current GPU and a pair of Corsair headphones for example, both where basically brand new.
  • For that xbox, reset the video settings by holding the power down for 2 beeps and then start it up. It should reset all video settings. Happens a lot causing ppl to return their xboxes
  • @trainerwott
    What happens to all the tech after you buy it? Do you return everything or does it go to people or do you just have ten z flips and ps2s lying around? Genuinely curious
  • I got an iPhone 13 for my mom for 480 dollars, for the prices in my country was extremely cheap and it came pretty good, the battery had 100% and no damage at all just the metal ring in the camera had the paint off

    I bought a refurbished razer viper v2 pro and have had zero issues with it almost 2 years later. It didn't come in a razer box but instead a amazon renewed carboard box.
