Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I get for pawning my game console?
The pawn value of your console depends on its model, condition, included accessories, and current market demand. Generally, you can expect to receive 40-60% of the retail value of a used console in good condition.
What affects the pawn value of my gaming console?
Several factors affect pawn value: the console model and age, physical condition, whether you have the original packaging and accessories, current market demand, and the specific pawn shop's inventory needs.
Should I sell or pawn my gaming console?
If you need short-term cash but want your console back, pawning is better. If you no longer need the console and want to maximize your money, selling is usually the better option as it typically offers 10-20% more than a pawn loan.
What do I need to bring when pawning a console?
Bring the console, all power cables, controllers, HDMI cables, and any games you want to include. Also bring a valid ID and proof of purchase if available. Bringing the original box can increase the value.
