NEED CASH FAST? PAWN YOUR VIDEO GAME CONSOLE TODAY

Pawn Shop for PlayStation 5, Xbox & Nintendo Switch

Did you know game consoles have one of the highest redemption rates of any pawned item? That means most people who pawn a console come back and reclaim it. So you can pawn yours with confidence, knowing it'll be waiting for you once it's paid off.

We make it easy to turn any console into cash. No long waits, no hassle. Bring in a Sony PS5, a PS5 Slim, a PS5 Pro, or an Xbox Series X console and our team of gamers will give you a fair, same-day offer. Older hardware works too: a PS4, PS4 Pro, or Xbox One. We also take accessories on their own, so if you just need to pawn a PS5 controller or DualSense pad, that works.

Keep your gear and repay the pawn loan to get it back later, or skip the loan and sell it outright. The choice between pawn or sell is always yours. Either way, you walk out with cash the same day, no credit checks required.

How Much Can You Get for Your Console?

Every Sony PlayStation 5 is evaluated based on its model, condition, and included accessories, and the same goes for older PS4 hardware. A disc edition versus a digital edition, a 1TB SSD, and whether the disc drive still spins can all factor in. A factory reset, the original packaging, and a working HDMI cable typically support a better outcome too. Rather than guess at a number, check out our PS5 pawn guide and our Xbox pricing breakdown for a closer look at what drives market value, resale demand, and market demand on the resale market. Whether you plan to pawn PlayStation 5 hardware or something else, pawn transactions on the secondary market shift often, so pricing a pre-owned console before visiting is smart, as the amount you can borrow depends on the model and its current demand.

Before You Head to the Pawn Shop

A little prep can help speed things up and support a better offer:

  • Gather all cables, the controller, stand, and original box if available
  • Wipe down surfaces and clear dust from the vents
  • Bundle physical games and any extra accessories
  • Know your exact model Factory reset through Settings > System > System Software > Reset Options
  • Fully charge the controller so staff can test it immediately
  • Bring a valid government-issued ID, which is required for all pawn transactions
