Used Elite Series 2 Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good condition, came with all parts. Some of the colors for changing the Xbox button don’t seem to work properly but that’s purely cosmetic.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Price
New and drifting already
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It doesn’t have a month of use and the right joystick is already drifting down really bad. Is really expensive, you would think you would not have a problem like that.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Mission Failed! we'll get em' next time!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller was beautiful after I bought it. A shiny new toy! You open the packaging, and sniff the brand new controller Like you would buying a brand new car! Now, using it on day one, the Y button is 50% responsive from input press, and sometimes the right bumper doesn't want to cooperate 80% of the time as well! fun times! premium controller! poor in the taste of actual usage.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend $180 dollar paperweight
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor quality. This is my 2nd elite series 2 controller. $60 dollar geek squad plan purchased with original controller. Returned controller because the right bumper stopped working and the trigger lock for the right trigger broke off so I returned it and got another one, paid another $60 for geek squad plan and the thumb sticks literally unscrew themselves while you’re gaming. Don’t waste your money

Shame
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Drifting issue (of course). For the amount of money and the warranty from Microsoft and process of trying to return it its obvious not worth it.
