Used game controllers in Woking typically sell for £15 to £50 (about $20 to $67). Controllers sell constantly because they break constantly, and the only question a buyer really has is whether the sticks drift.
Selling a game controller in Woking
Woking is a Surrey commuter town with fast trains to the capital, the headquarters and factory of a Formula One team on its edge, and a science fiction connection it marks with a sculpture in the town centre. The housing is largely suburban and expensive.
The motorsport and engineering firms here recruit internationally on fixed contracts, so people arrive with nothing, furnish a rented flat quickly and sell the lot when they leave the country. That produces near-new goods in complete sets on a fairly predictable cycle.
On technology and home-office hardware, ask its age and daily running hours. Equipment from the corporate households here is well specified but has usually worked continuously.
Woking, in England, has around 103,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. London, Birmingham and Leeds are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Woking
The UK has the deepest second-hand habit of any of our markets — charity shops, car boot sales and online resale have been mainstream here for decades, so buyers arrive already comfortable with used goods and already know roughly what things are worth.

Common questions
Where can I sell a game controller in Woking?
List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. Almost everything in the centre is a flat above or beside the shopping complex, where loading means the service area and a booked slot rather than pulling up outside. The residential roads further out are permit-only for most of the day.
Do the sticks drift?
Test in a menu that shows stick input and report exactly what you see. This is the entire question for a used controller.
