I still lived with him. We had more than one controller. He doesn’t work at construction sites, he works on call; he’s a joiner and plumber, not a construction worker. I just want it repaired so I can put it on display. He apologised after I told him it was rare, so no hard feelings.
Also, I bought “all my shit” myself, so how am I ungrateful? I have fucking nothing to be ungrateful for.

No big deal man, nobody's gonna give a fuck about your cool custom controller in 20 years.
JustNoticedThat t1_j6eg6nv wrote
Well, I bought it for £50, and it goes for £1000. Free money. It ain’t even custom, it’s official.

Still man it's just a piece of plastic l, I don't have any that are that rare but I have a few nice ones, and I've used them like they were made for. It's not a 67 GTO odds are the value isn't going to hold anyway.

Yes , apologies to your dad. Things can be fixed if you apologies 🙏🏽
JustNoticedThat t1_j6ei8vb wrote
We both already apologised. I’m just asking if it’s repairable because I want to either put it on display or sell it.

That’s good. You choose the wrong sub for this post. Makes you look ungrateful.

If you have a controller that only ever had 1000 made, you don't take it out of the box.
JustNoticedThat t1_j6eeiqz wrote
I opened the box up so I could put it on display. I used only about three times. My dad was the one who used it mostly, and I didn’t know he used it.

Ask your dad for the money it would cost to buy one on eBay. Only seems fair as he ruined it.

I don’t think he’d be willing to give me £1000 over something he done four years ago.

Well, you're shit out of luck then aren't you.
JustNoticedThat t1_j6efw24 wrote
Not really. I’ll get it repaired if it’s repairable.

So basically your dad didn't know it was rare and you didn't know he was using it so much. Glad there are no hard feelings. Hope you can get it repaired.

Thanks. I’m glad someone here isn’t against me for absolutely no reason. Watch this reply get downvoted to hell.
JustNoticedThat t1_j6ehksv wrote
Lmao, why am I being mass downvoted? I’m literally just asking if the damage is repairable. I’m not ungrateful, I’m not salty, I’m just asking a question.

People downvote me for being ungrateful. When I say I’m not ungrateful and give them reasons for why I’m not, they still downvote me because no matter what, they’re right and I’m wrong.
I see you there. Go, downvote this, knock yourself out.

Sounds like an ungreatful child to me. Likely your Oldman bought all your shit. He was likely using it to unwind from a long day on a construction site. Cut him some slack, if you left it for so long, it had no more value to you than a new one.
Chill out, leave the past behind and move on...
