Pro - I can get an ps4 original which is the one I want for super cheap ( $ 100-150)

Con- not comfortable going to someone's house and playing it first to see if it works

also i don't want to be robbed or killed lol
Have them send you a video of them playing it. FaceTime would be best. Then meet them in a public place or better yet at the police dept.

Be careful

It could be a banned system therefore might not work

Ask the person why he’s selling it
what's a banned system?

i have never heard of this
If someone were to jailbreak or hack the console—Sony can ban that specific system with it’s serial/MAC address or whatever

No access to psn

oh so then i wouldn't be able to download games?
