Can I sell a faulty Switch?

Yes. We offer a price in good, poor and broken condition. That includes scratches, a cracked screen, Joy-Con drift, a faulty game card slot or a console that won't turn on. Our condition guide explains each option. We test every console when it arrives. If it doesn't match the condition you chose, we will email you a revised offer, which you can accept or decline.
