Used board games in Ras Al Khaimah typically sell for AED 25 to AED 200 (about $7 to $54). Board games sell on completeness, and there is only one way to establish it: count the pieces against the rulebook before you list.
Selling board games in Ras Al Khaimah
Ras Al Khaimah is the northernmost emirate and the one with real mountains behind it, and its economy is built on materials rather than finance: ceramics, cement and quarrying on a scale that supplies the whole region. Rents sit well below Dubai’s, so a large share of residents are families who live here and commute south, and household goods turn over on the rhythm of those tenancies rather than on fashion.
Industrial contracts and school terms drive the turnover here. Workers arrive on fixed postings and leave when they end, and a household leaving the country sells the entire contents of a flat in a fortnight rather than trickling items out over a year.
Almost everything here happens by car — the emirate is spread along the coast and out towards the mountains, and there is no metro to meet at. Agree a landmark on the main road rather than a street address, and for anything large confirm the building has lift access before either of you commits to a time.
On anything that lived on a balcony or in an unshaded car park, check the plastics and the seals. The sun here does more damage in two summers than years of ordinary use, and it shows first on the parts nobody photographs.
Handing it over in Ras Al Khaimah
The UAE has an unusually active second-hand market driven by how often people arrive and leave — relocation sales mean good-quality items turn over quickly and often at well below their age. Around Al Nakheel, Al Hamra and Al Rams are where this sort of thing tends to change hands.

Getting it ready
- Check the box corners and the board hinge, which is where age shows and where damp damage appears first.

- The rulebook, plus the box corners and any tear, water mark or repair
Put in the description

Title, edition and completeness: “Catan, 2015 Edition, Complete with Rules” or “Monopoly Deluxe, Missing 1 Token”. Edition matters to hobby gamers because components and artwork change between printings, and the word complete is what most buyers filter on.
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.

Have the cards been sleeved or shuffled hard?
Look at the card edges and say. Hobby buyers care about card wear because marked backs make a game unplayable competitively.
