This order was for a Game Cube TLC. The console came very dirty and with a yellowed front panel as well as several chips around the front part of the console. Customer was made aware of the chips and asked if they would be interested in retrobrighting the front panel, which they agreed to. The console was otherwise perfectly operational
Upon disassembly, it became clear that one of the post that hold the console’s two halves together was snapped. This post was later glued
The interior of the console had a lot of dirt and “stuck” dust, particularly around the fan and bottom side of the shell. The console was completely disassembled, starting with the plastic parts, and washed with soap and water
The disc drive was also completely disassembled, and cleaned, including the changing of the lubricant in the laser pickup rails
There was a small amount of rust in the disc drive shield, which was mechanically removed
The thermal pads below the heatsink were also replaced
The jewel was polished and the plastic was treated with plastic enhancer
The front panel was retrobrigthed (not perfect but great improvement). The console was also tested with a game successfully
