Exact price depends on specific games, console model, condition, and region. Here is how to appraise and sell for maximum return.
| Approach | Proceeds | Effort |
|---|---|---|
| Sell individually (eBay/Mercari/r/GameSale) | 100% FMV | High (photos, listing, shipping x26) |
| Sell console + mat + high-value games separately; bulk lot for rest | 85–90% FMV | Medium |
| Sell complete bundle locally (FB Marketplace, OfferUp, Craigslist) | 60–75% FMV | Low (cash, no ship) |
| Trade to GameStop / DKOldies / Lukies | 30–40% FMV | Lowest (instant) |
Do the PriceCharting audit first. It takes 20 minutes and often reveals a $50+ gem hiding in a $5 stack.
