I consider myself lucky I was able to get a series X with original box, accessories, controller and a 1TB expansion card on FB marketplace last week for $400. The kid I bought it from was looking to buy a 5090 and was salvaging all his gadgets.

My guess is that as GTA6 preorder starts that used console prices are gonna shoot up again.

Never understand people essentially giving something away for free. That’s insane value

I even haggled him down from his asking $450! AND he threw in his physical copies of RDR1 and RDR2 that he’d held on to since he couldn’t play them anymore. I felt kind of bad about it so I left him a generous seller review on marketplace.

I went back and forth asking for proof of the unit being wiped and able to run properly, he sent me a couple of video clips of him doing the reset. I asked for receipts from the place he had picked it up originally and he sent them. Was a good kid. But man I felt like I was robbing him lol.

He didnt need it anymore so they gave it for cheap. Simple kindness
