Used Xbox Series X consoles in Waterloo typically sell for C$375 to C$660 (about $270 to $470). The Series X is bought by people who know exactly what they want, so the useful information is completeness, storage and whether it has been opened — not how tidy it looks.
Selling a Xbox Series X in Waterloo
Waterloo is the university half of the twin-city region, with an engineering and computer science school that feeds the surrounding technology sector and a large insurance industry alongside it. The student population is enormous relative to the city’s size and the co-op terms mean it turns over several times a year rather than once.
Co-op terms are the defining rhythm here: students move in and out several times a year rather than annually, so desks, monitors and bikes come onto the market on a cycle measured in months. Prices drop sharply in the last week of a term.
The light rail line connects the campuses to both downtowns and is the easiest way to handle a small handover. Student housing near the universities is dense, so agree a building entrance rather than a street.
Waterloo, in Ontario, has around 125,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Working out what yours is worth

- Compare sold listings for the same model and bundle
Getting it ready

Heavy and best posted in its original box if you have it, well padded if not. Local collection with a live boot test is the smoothest option and reassures a buyer spending several hundred pounds.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
