Prepare your console before posting

1. Back up saves to cloud (PSN cloud / Xbox cloud / Nintendo Switch Online) or to a USB drive. Once we reset, local saves are gone.
2. Deactivate your account as primary console: PSN (Settings → Users and Accounts → Other → Console Sharing and Offline Play → Disable), Xbox (Settings → Personalisation → My home Xbox → Don’t make this my home Xbox), Nintendo Switch (System Settings → Users → Unlink Nintendo Account).
3. Factory reset:
   • PS5: Settings → System → System Software → Reset Options → Reset Your Console
   • PS4: Settings → Initialisation → Initialise PS4 → Full
   • Xbox: Settings → System → Console Info → Reset Console → Reset and Remove Everything
   • Switch: System Settings → System → Formatting Options → Restore Factory Settings
4. Include the original controller and power cable. Extra controllers / games / accessories are quoted separately if you want to add them.

Send it to us

Because consoles are higher-value and bulky, we use a fully tracked, insured courier service. We send packaging and a label — please use the original console box if you have it, otherwise wrap securely in a sturdy outer box with bubble wrap or paper padding.

We test it

Our team checks cosmetic condition, runs a full diagnostic, tests all ports (HDMI, USB, controller pairing, disc drive if applicable), and does a factory reset. Within 1–2 working days. If everything matches what you described, we pay out; if it’s different, we send a counter offer.

Get paid

• Bank transfer: next working day.
• PayPal: usually within 24 hours.
• Envirocash: instant credit toward a refurbished purchase, plus an extra 7%.
