    It’s depends on what piece they ship, sometimes you get lucky, sometimes it’s a bad piece. Mine was is worst condition, has markings, scratches and lot of dust. I guess that is to except when the item is refurbished.

    Ordered a refurbished Red and Blue OLED Switch. I generally have good experiences with Geek Squad refurbished products but the Switch had a small crack just above center screen. This damage was not disclosed. This Switch was $15 more expensive than other ones, but with damage like that, should not have been at all, or at a very aggressive discount. I will continue to buy refurbs, it just didn’t work out this time.

    Love the Switch, Awful Refurb Product

    The "refurbished" system came clumsily wrapped in bubble wrap. I only realized after installing games and a screen protector that one of the joy-cons was broken--the L3 button wouldn't push in. Despite the geek squad hardware warranty, Best Buy *couldn't* replace just the controller. In fact, they couldn't even exchange the refurb console for another refurb--they wanted me to buy a new one and pay the difference. Ultimately, they stole hours of my life from me and gave me a $20 credit--1/4th the price of a joy-con, I believe. Better than nothing, I guess.

    Do not buy from Best Buy. Save yourself the trouble and buy your Switch from Nintendo, so you can have a warranty and better access to a support team and repairs. I bought this refurbished Switch for $350 and the Wi-Fi connection stopped working after a week; I had a few games so I kept playing, until I wanted to add more - turns out the entire board needs to be replaced ($120). This refurbished Switch does NOT come with any kind of warranty, the support team at Best Buy is terrible, they turned me away when I had no idea what to do. Please if you're considering buying this, go to Nintendo where you will have a warranty, refurbished products can be a scam. I spent $350 for a Switch that didn't work.

    Not sure if it's a Nintendo thing or that it's refurbished but it barely ever connects to wifi which is required for most of the games. I bought it as a birthday present for my daughter so by the time we realized there was an issue, it was too late to return. Tried all of the troubleshooting. Spend hours trying to get it to work.

    First why would you not clean the product before sending it, this includes the switch, charger dock, and the remotes. Second my would you nit package my produt properly you literally just threw it into a box and said its all good to go. The sound on the console is damaged making everything sound robotic when ever i use it.
