Sell your Games Consoles

Envirofone is one of the most trusted places to sell your games console in the UK. Since 2005, we've paid over £160 million to customers and recycled millions of devices. We offer competitive prices, free postage, same-day testing and fast payment. Unlike eBay, Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree, you sell directly to us — so there are no seller fees, no waiting for buyers, and no risk of scams or chargebacks. And unlike high-street trade-in at GAME or CeX, we usually pay more and don't tie you into store credit.

We buy every major games console. From Sony we accept the PS5, PS5 Digital Edition, PS4 Pro, PS4 Slim, PS4 and PS3. From Microsoft we accept the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One X, Xbox One S, Xbox One and Xbox 360. From Nintendo we accept the Switch OLED, Switch, Switch Lite, Wii U, Wii and older retro models. All storage variants and special editions are welcome — search for your exact console above to get an instant quote.

Yes. We buy games consoles in any condition — whether your console has disc drive failures, HDMI output issues, overheating problems, controller faults, red ring of death, or is completely non-working. Select the condition that best matches your console and we'll give you a fair price. Even faulty consoles contain valuable components that can be reused or responsibly recycled, so it's always worth getting a quote rather than throwing them away.

The price depends on the brand, model, storage capacity and condition. Current-generation consoles like the PS5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch OLED command the highest trade-in prices. Previous-generation consoles such as the PS4 Pro, Xbox One X and Nintendo Switch still hold strong value. Even older consoles like the PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii U have trade-in value for their components. A console in excellent working condition will always fetch more than one with faults or cosmetic damage — search for your specific model above to get an instant, no-obligation quote.

We test your console on the day it arrives at our facility. Once it passes inspection, payment is processed the same day. Choose bank transfer for cash straight to your account, or select Envirocash for a 7% bonus to spend on a refurbished device from Envirofone. Most customers receive their money within 3–5 days of accepting their quote, including postage time.

Before sending your console, back up any saved game data to the cloud or a USB drive, sign out of your online account (PlayStation Network, Xbox Live or Nintendo Account) and perform a factory reset from the system settings menu. Remove any discs, game cartridges, external storage or accessories you want to keep. This protects your personal data and ensures we can process your trade-in without delays.

No. We only need the console itself — you can keep any controllers, HDMI cables, charging cables, headsets, games or accessories. Our quote is based solely on the console model, storage size and condition. If you have controllers or games to sell separately, we accept many of those too — check our sell page for the full list of accepted items.

Selling your console online to a specialist like Envirofone typically gives you a significantly better price than high-street trade-in programmes at GAME, CeX or other retailers. We offer free postage, same-day payment and no obligation to put the money towards a new console — so you get more cash and complete freedom to spend it however you like.

Your console's trade-in value depends on several factors: the brand, the model and generation, storage capacity, cosmetic condition, and whether it's fully working. Current-generation consoles hold their value best, but even older PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii consoles are still worth selling. To find out exactly what your console is worth, search for your model above — our prices update regularly to reflect the current market.

Yes. You can sell multiple consoles in a single trade-in — add each one to your basket, complete the checkout, and we'll send a single Enviropack large enough for all your devices. We'll test each console individually and pay you for the full order on the same day everything arrives.

Yes. Every console you sell to Envirofone is either refurbished and given a second life with a new owner, or responsibly broken down for parts and recycled — nothing goes to landfill. By choosing to sell rather than throw away, you're keeping electronic waste out of landfill and reducing the demand for raw materials needed to manufacture new consoles.
