I Paid $300 for This BROKEN PS5, But Why?



I Paid $300 for This BROKEN PS5, But Why? The seller said it has an HDMI issue but it came in pieces so I’m wondering if I’ll find other things that are wrong as well. First I’ll have to get it back together to see if it even works at all, then it will be time to tackle the HDMI problem, along with anything else.

  1. How do you get the liquid metal to spread like that with the black q tip? I tried to do this yesterday and all it did was wipe up the liquid metal. Did you dip the tip in alcohol before spreading around?

  2. I still have my OG PS5 I got few days after realesed I don't use it alot but when I do get time off work I hammer it for hours never had any issues with I don't understand how people can break them so quickly

  3. The market for broken consoles, is horrible, at least in this case for a ps5.

    I personally rebuild Starter Motors, and I get my starters depending on the year, as low as $20 to $35. They are a lot more expensive if they are from a expensive car like a Porsche.

    And since I don't have much overhead since I work in my back yard, I can sell them for cheap since I don't pay people and rebuild them my self.

  4. Hey! Been watching you for a hot minute, and I've really enjoyed your content! Along with that, I've really wanted to get into working on electronics, both to have certain console I haven't had the luxury of having before, but also to maybe make a little money on the side. What would you say the viability of this is? Is there a career that can be made doing this? What are the pros and cons and risks of taking on this path as a potential career or even side hustle? Many thanks for any feedback you have!
