Sell used XBOX One online - the best tips
If you no longer want to use your XBOX One and sell it online, you have several options. We'll show you how to get a good price on your used console.
Selling XBOX One online - where can you get the best price?
- There are now numerous websites that buy used consoles. You can get rid of your used XBOX One quickly, but you can get a much better price in other ways.
- You should try eBay classifieds or various Facebook groups first. On eBay classifieds, you pay no fees and get rid of the console to a buyer in your area. On Facebook you can find a group like "Search / Offer Cologne" for every major city. There you can also sell the console privately.
- If you are unsuccessful here, you will find the largest number of potential buyers on eBay. Here, however, you pay a small commission on the sales price. It is best to use a free auction that starts at one euro.
Sell used XBOX One online - you should pay attention to that
- Once you have sold the console, reset the XBOX One to the factory settings. The new owner should not be able to access your XBOX Live account.
- If you own some high-quality games such as the current GTA or FIFA, you should consider selling the games separately. In this case, it is usually worth selling the console and accessories with cheaper games. You then sell expensive and rare games separately.
- You should note any known damage to the XBOX One in the product description. This way you avoid a possible return or a bad rating by the buyer.
