Sell your Xbox for cash
Xbox One, One S, One X or Series S/X taking up TV-stand real estate since Game Pass made the disc drive optional? Turn it into cash in under a minute.
How it works
Get your instant offer
Select Xbox as the brand and get your instant offer.
Free collection
Accept it, and we’ll collect for free, anywhere in South Africa.
We test it
We test it against what you told us, no last-minute haggling on the tested offer.
Get paid
Paid within 5 days, or more via voucher or consignment.
What determines your Xbox’s offer
Model and storage
Xbox One, One S, One X, Series S or Series X, plus storage, are the biggest drivers of your offer.
Condition and working drive
A console that boots and reads discs properly (where applicable) is worth more than one with a faulty drive or overheating issues.
What’s included
A controller, power and HDMI cables push your offer up. Games and extra controllers can add a bit more.
No account removal needed
There’s no Microsoft account lock that survives a factory reset. We recommend doing Settings > System > Console info > Reset console > Reset and remove everything for your own privacy before sending it, but it’s not required for us to buy it.
Epic Deals vs the alternatives
No boss fight required.
| Epic Deals | Facebook Marketplace / Gumtree | Pawn shop | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price haggling | No last-minute haggling on the tested offer | Constant lowballing over condition and extras | Usually a fraction of real resale value |
| Payment speed | Paid within 5 days, or more via voucher or consignment | Could take weeks to find a serious buyer | Immediate but low |
| Collection | Free nationwide courier, no strangers at your door | Strangers coming to your home to test it in person | Walk-in only, no free collection |
| Safety | VAT-registered, Ombud-accredited business | Fake-payment risk | Varies |
Why sell now, not later
Console resale value drops noticeably once the next generation takes over shelf space, and older Xbox One units are worth less every year Series S/X have been available. Selling while there’s still solid demand beats waiting for the next hardware cycle to make the decision for you.
Why South Africans sell to us specifically
Epic Deals has paid South Africans over R88 million for their used tech since 2013 (yes, actually paid, not “up to”), with 1,800+ real customer reviews. We’re not a stranger from a classifieds app, we’re a registered, VAT-paying South African business with a track record you can check, and a participant in the Consumer Goods and Services Ombud Scheme, the independent, CPA-accredited dispute resolution body for retail complaints in South Africa.
Want more than the instant cash offer?
Cash
Paid within 5 days once we’ve collected and tested your Xbox.
Voucher+12%
Take store credit instead of cash. 12% extra, because loyalty should pay better than cash does.
Consignment
We list and sell it on your behalf. Slower than an instant offer, but often worth the wait, think patient investor rather than impulse seller. Paid on average within about 13 working days, usually for more than our instant offer.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to sign out of my Microsoft account first?
No. Unlike phones, there’s no Xbox account lock that survives a factory reset. We’d recommend doing one for your own privacy (Settings > System > Console info > Reset console > Reset and remove everything), but it’s not required for us to make you an offer.
Do you buy Xboxes that don’t turn on or have a faulty disc drive?
Yes, get an instant offer either way and we’ll assess it properly. A non-working console or one with drive issues is worth less than a fully working one, but it’s still worth something.
What about controller stick drift?
There’s no field on our form to flag it upfront, so we check for it when your console arrives. If we find drift, we deduct the cost of a replacement controller rather than rejecting the console.
Do I need to include a controller or cables?
No, but including them pushes your offer up. A console on its own is still worth buying.
Do you buy Xbox One as well as Series S/X?
Yes, all generations: Xbox One, One S, One X, Series S and Series X. Select your exact model when getting your instant offer.
How long until I get paid?
Within 5 days of us receiving and testing your console, by EFT. Or take our voucher for 12% extra to spend in-store, or sell on consignment for potentially even more.
Is the courier really free?
Yes, free nationwide courier collection, no need to meet anyone.
Is there a safer way to sell than meeting a stranger from Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree?
That’s exactly what we built this for. No strangers at your door, just a tested offer, free courier collection and a real payment into your account.
