Why choose the refurbished PS4 by YesYes
A strict control process
One of the arguments in favor of YesYes reconditioned products is undoubtedly the quality of its reconditioning process. Carried out entirely in its Atelier Boutique located in Caen, it is entrusted to the company’s experienced technicians who meticulously check numerous points to ensure that everything is working correctly.
After verifying that the console is not stolen or blacklisted by Sony and having erased all the data it contains, YesYes makes sure that the optical drive, network and connectivity are working properly before proceeding with a thorough cleaning. The technicians then proceed to check and clean the joystick.
At the end of these different steps, a test certificate is then generated and the console guaranteed to be 100% functional is then reconditioned in an elegant box and ready for its new life.
Each console is supplied with a DualShock controller and new charging accessories certified to CE standards. Sure of the quality of its reconditioned products, YesYes offers a two-year warranty (equivalent to a new product warranty) on all of its consoles and a 10-year warranty for all charging accessories.
A 100% eco-responsible approach
The other strong point of YesYes lies in its eco-responsible approach. In essence, recovery and reconditioning are already steps that are good for the planet. Buying second-hand products (it’s not a bad word) indeed makes it possible to reduce the environmental cost linked to the manufacture of new products, in particular at the level of the exploitation of rare metals and the consumption of water. . Not to mention the human cost. This also makes it possible to limit pollution linked to the storage of our still functional electronic products by giving them a second life rather than letting them age at the back of our drawers.
Here are all the accessories and items supplied with a console purchased on YesYes.
But YesYes’ approach goes a step further. Each product repackaged by the company is in fact delivered in 100% recyclable cardboard packaging. No plastic therefore, which is a great thing for the planet. In the same vein, the supplied power cables are eco-designed and 100% recyclable. Last but not least, YesYes greatly limits its carbon footprint by operating from France. It is also a good way to support local jobs and ensure fast, quality service.
The PS4, a console rich in exceptional titles
Released in 2013, the PlayStation 4 is a console that enjoyed a fairly long run-time before being replaced by the PlayStation 5 last year. Seven years during which it was able to welcome plethora of emblematic titles, even cult for some. A rich, varied game library which therefore contains some monuments of video games today accessible at very reasonable prices thanks to the PS4 Essentials range.
For example, you can discover titles such as:
- God of war ;
- Uncharted 4 and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy ;
- Bloodborne and Sekiro ;
- The Last of Us Remastered and The Last of Us 2 ;
- Detroit: Become Human;
- Ghost of Tsushima;
- The Last Guardian;
- and many others…
Another advantage of the PlayStation 4: the PlayStation Plus. This monthly or yearly subscription allows you to get free games on your console every month. More or less recent titles that will join your library as long as you are subscribed. In this month of December, you will be able to discover Lego DC Super-Villains and Mortal Shell, a Gothic Souls-like at will.
The PS + also allows you, each month, to play online, obtain exclusive discounts, store your saves in the cloud or even share a game with a friend, even if he does not have it.
Who is YesYes, the French refurbished workshop?
Launched in 2018 under the impetus of two former Sony Mobile employees, YesYes is a company whose vocation is to offer 100% French, 100% eco-responsible refurbished electronic products, with an emphasis on the quality of the products and services offered.
Located in Normandy, in Caen more precisely, the Atelier Boutique YesYes centralizes all of the company’s activity. On site, its specialist technicians examine, test and meticulously clean each device received, whether PlayStation 4 or smartphones (Apple or Samsung). A sufficiently strict and thorough process so that YesYes can afford to offer a two-year warranty on all of its products.
In recent months, YesYes has entered into a partnership with Fnac to facilitate the take-over of PlayStation 4s across France. You just have to go to any Fnac in France and Navarre and drop off a PS4 and its working controller to obtain a voucher valid for one year on all departments of the brand. The consoles thus recovered are then sent to the Norman workshop of YesYes to be checked and reconditioned, then put back on sale in Fnac, with, again, a two-year warranty.
