Price guide

Second-hand PlayStation 5 prices in the UK

What a used PS5 is being listed for across UK marketplaces at the moment, and what to look at before you pay.

What sellers are asking right now

Each model is priced on its own, so a newer model is never averaged with an older one, and each storage size is priced on its own too. These are asking prices from listings Snaffla saw in the last 30 days.

Not enough recent listings yet for PlayStation 5 Digital Edition 825GB, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition 1TB. A model needs at least 8 listings before we show a price for it.

These are asking prices, not what things sold for, so a good deal can be below them. Listings that look like accessories, games, spares, faulty items, job lots or special editions are left out, and so are 30 that don't say which model they are, because we would rather leave one out than guess, plus 21 that don't give a clear storage size. The figures come from listings Snaffla has seen, not every listing in the UK.

What to check before you buy

  • Whether it is the disc or the digital edition, and the model, because they are priced differently.
  • That it comes with the power cable, HDMI cable and at least one controller, and whether the original box is included.
  • Whether the console is signed out of the seller's account, so it can be set up as yours.
  • Photos of the front and back, and whether the seller will show it working before you pay.

What moves the price

  • A console bundled with extra controllers or games is usually listed higher than the console alone.
  • Listings that say faulty, spares or repairs are far cheaper and are a different thing to a working console.
  • Prices tend to rise towards Christmas and on the run-up to big game releases.
