Used gaming chairs in Abu Dhabi typically sell for AED 200 to AED 790 (about $54 to $215). Gaming chairs are bulky, cheap new and heavily discounted, so a used one sells on condition of the upholstery and the gas lift — and on being honest that it is a collection-only item.
Selling a gaming chair in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi is the capital and its economy is built around government and energy, which means longer postings and more settled households than Dubai. Things are kept for longer and sold in better condition, and the market skews towards quality furniture rather than quick disposals.
Most of the city sits on an island connected by a handful of bridges, so crossing to the mainland suburbs is a real trip rather than a short hop. Compounds and towers usually need visitor access arranged in advance.
Ask how long the seller has owned the item. Postings here run longer than in Dubai, so goods are typically better used but also better looked after, and the ownership history tells you which you are getting.
Abu Dhabi has around 1.5 million people in Abu Dhabi, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Al Ain, Madinat Zayed and Ruwais are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. Most of the city sits on an island connected by a handful of bridges, so crossing to the mainland suburbs is a real trip rather than a short hop. Compounds and towers usually need visitor access arranged in advance.
Is the PU leather flaking?
Photograph the seat front and edges. Flaking is the standard end-of-life for PU upholstery and it accelerates, so buyers price it in heavily.
