I lost my Switch about 6 months ago, and at this point, I have given up hope. So, I decided to look on ebay for Switch tablets. On my search, I ran into this listing: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/133130590500

I understand that it is a bid, but there only seems to be 18 hours remaining. I also don't really care about the issues, as I have a kickstand that was disconnected from my switch. I just want to know if it is safe to go ahead and buy the tablet, as I don't want to get scammed.

That will end up selling for double that price, if not more. Don't get your hopes up.
Just watch the listing, and how much it goes for, then you have a good idea of the price range. Take that knowledge and find a deal. There are plenty to be had, just make sure the seller has a good rating and LOTS of previous positive feedback.

1. You do realize that usually the real bidding only starts 1 or 2 hours before the item runs out, right? This will probably start rising soon.
2.good job in telling a community interested in theses products. That will probably drive up the price even more. If you're the seller: we'll played. If you were genuinely interested in getting it: good job increasing your potential bidding rivals

If the seller has good ratings, it's unlikely to be a scam.

But as people pointed out, price will shoot up in the last couple hours.
Its probably better to keep an eye out for a good buy now price.

Holy shit! I found a great deal on a video game console, that's also an auction! I know what to do, I'll tell a giant video game forum about it, and link them to the auction!

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
