Thanks For Reading.

 

I Am Buying A PS4 Slim From A Pawn Shop.

I Am Buying It Used For $70 Because Something Is Wrong With It And Before I Pay Anymore On It, I Wanted To Know If Anyone Has Any Ideas Why It Is Broke. I Have Prior Experience Working On Laptops And PS4s But Not Getting To Open It Leaves Questions.

 

When I Hold The PS4 And Turn It Sideways, It's Like The Entire Inside Of The PS4 Is Loose And Shifts. I Hear Something Bouncing Around But My Guess Is That It Is Screws.

 

I Don't Know If The Hard Drive Is Loose Or Something But Something Big Is Moving In It.

 

Thanks For The Help Guys

If it's busted in the inside, no telling what broke unless you open it, but also, if it's never been opened, something was destroyed and the thing is possibly just complete junk shaped like a play station.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?

If you purchase it and send it to me, I can open it and look inside to try to determine what's wrong.

 

Normally I'd add a /s (sarcasm) remark to the end of my sentence, but dude, no one can tell what's broken if they're not given access to it before buying it.

Because its already been messed with. Don't buy it, do NOT get it!

Pay more for a known good PS4!
