Game Boy Advance - Limited Edition Platinum (Renewed)

For refurbished GBA consoles, my expectation was for a worn finish, maybe a scratch or two on the screen, used but working. Instead the 2 GBA's I got were practically brand new. No scratches, only slight edge wear on the paint on one and no wear on the other, and tight like-new button action. Both power switches are perfect. I'm modding these with laminated ITA screens, which is almost a shame b/c they're in such great condition. But the original GBA screen is pretty much worthless (not lit).

I am very upset with this purchase. I bought this item for my son for Christmas. I can understand the mild surface damage, after all it is used. However, the seller says the item was renewed and working perfectly. The back light on the screen does not work at all. So i have a black and white handheld gaming system that you have to have a flashlight directed onto the screen to be able to see it at all. Very upset with the seller and with Amazon for allowing people like this to sell.

It looks new unfortunately I have to return due to cartridge issue.

I got this today, and I love it, brings me back to when I was a little kid, people complaining about the screen, forget this is an old console, it was good when it came out. Came in almost perfect condition.

Minor scratches on case. So far appears to be working as expected.

Does not work - games do not play on this unit.. will be returning

We were very happy with this purchase. My son used this as a first experimentation for a new mod hand held. Everything worked great. Thanks!

Got this to mod, wanted the sliver to match my SP and DS (original). the screen (plastic cover) was the only (re)newed part, and it was plastic not glass. the shell itself is a scratched up mess, and not even 100% clean. does work however and moded with the tomsin ags 101 screen. I give it 2 stars because at its price point I was expecting something more clean and in better shape. I will end up replacing the shell later. If you plan on moding save money with a "good" or "acceptable" used GBA, and buy a 10-15 dollar shell here or on other sites like rose gold, hand held legend, etc.
