99% of the time, when someone makes a bannable post, it's quoted and reacted to by many people condemning it. That hasn't happened here, so clearly it's not the norm.
Personally I would like an explanation of this ban.
My husband knowingly bought a "broken" PS4 Pro for $200. Should I be mad at him?

seems you are alone on this one. It wasn't funny but not ban worthy.
Yeah I live in Queens, both are everywhere so it makes sense.
Dude is that a Sleepaway Camp avatar? I just re-watched that for the first time in like 20 years the other night...what the fuck goes on in that flick lol.
Are you economically tight? if not, i don't see the issue, you can sell it for spares if it's turn out wrong, but so far so good.
Probably the guy who returned it didn't know that the store accepted returns easily, so he lied.
Also, make him buy you the castlevania R in ps4 now due to your stress ;)

I like this thread title. Sounds like it should be the sequel to one of those Japanese games like My Little Sister Couldn't Possibly Be This Cute.
On the topic of whether or not you should be mad at him: depends on how big of an outlay this $200 is and whether or not it's your money or his.

Because it was unjustified in the opinion of some here.
Really? Wow, I thought once you got married, everything that was his was hers and everything that was hers was his. Guess you learn something new every day...
I disagree with this ban decision and think that it should be reviewed.
Depends on what country you're from (and got married) and sometimes it varies between regions of said country
That's not the point though.
It's not a question about him being ok after a week but about the punishment being proportionate

From what I've heard the PS4 Pro fan is loud as shit. Maybe the owner just thought it was defective?
Or even worse...

well OP said the husband was told FAN WAS NOT WORKING. that is different.
I wouldn't make that bet tbh. Great that it worked for you
Ban is totally worth it:
- You can say your wife handles the money in your relationship. It's your anecdotal case and your are not imposing expectations on anyone.
- You can't say women suck up all the money in a relationship. It's a generalization and imposes a negative stereotype.

Good thing the switch screen is made out of plastic, lol.
This is possibly the least-justified 1 week ban in ERA history. (probably deserved a warning)

Sounds like you're looking for something to be upset about.
I don't see anything to be mad about here. You even explained his reasoning for doing what he did.
1) People return things and say they're broken all the time even when they aren't because they want to avoid the awkward return process of "eh I just don't want it anymore". He, and the re-seller went over it before buying.
2) He was confident he could fix it even if it was broken, and knew the risk he was taking.
Is your husband typically bad with money? Are you mad he spent money without asking? Because that's a whole different story. It seems like what he did was pretty reasonable.

Mmmmhmmm and I just wished for some foundation lol....
WTF? You got banned for this post as a 'sexist joke'? You've gotta be fucking kidding me...
Moderator(s): You really need to find a sense of humor.....or experience marriage.
Yeah I am with OP. I dont think the price is good enough for the risk. Even if its the Pro model.
Is it really a gamble if the store has a no questions asked return policy? If it is actually broken, then he can just return it right?
That's true, I've never thought about it like that. I guess having been raised in the U.S., I've only been exposed to one ideology.
Doesn't even matter on that. We don't have a contract or prenup or anything and have totally separate finances and no shares accounts. We have zero fights over money. We discuss big purchases of course, but this would come close to that for our budgets. It's different for couples in tight budgets of course. We can both have secure jobs and can easily pay all our bills individually if needed and still save money so we have no need to be involved in the others finances.

He would most likely need to pay for it and it's expensive, iirc.
You should try the Rise of the Tomb Raider demo in 4K or high framerate mode. That game is known to trigger blue screens (allegedly due to overheating) in defective Pros, especially launch models.
