Used PS4s in Canada typically sell for C$150 to C$300 (about $110 to $215). The PS4 has settled into a stable budget console market, so condition and completeness matter more than the model revision.
What PS4s are worth in Canada
| Condition | Typical | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| New with Tags | C$302 | Unused, tags or seals intact |
| Like New | C$257 | Barely used, no visible wear |
| Good | C$196 | Light signs of use, complete and working |
| Fair | C$136 | Heavily used, or a described fault or missing part |
| For Parts | C$75 | Not working or incomplete, sold as seen |

Selling a PS4 in Canada
Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.
Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.
Working out what yours is worth
- Identify whether you have the original, Slim or Pro
- Run a disc-based game to confirm the drive reads cleanly
Getting it ready
- Run a game for twenty minutes and listen. If the fan is loud, say so; if it is quiet, that is a genuine selling point worth stating.
- Factory reset the console and deactivate it as your primary PS4 so the buyer can use their own account.

Model and storage, then contents: “PS4 Slim 1TB with Controller and Games”. Original, Slim and Pro are three different prices, so the model is essential. Bundling games moves a PS4 far faster than selling it bare, and cartridge-free discs are cheap to include.
Postable if boxed well, though the value now makes postage a large fraction of the price. Local collection with a quick boot test suits most PS4 sales.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the C$302 a buyer pays is the C$302 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell a PS4 in Canada?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.
Is it the Pro?
Check the model number on the rear. The Pro is worth noticeably more and the models are easily confused.
Is a used PS4 still worth anything?
Yes, as a budget console and for its large game library. Prices are modest but sales are steady, particularly for Slim and Pro models.
Should I sell my PS4 with games?
Bundling a few well-known titles usually raises the total and makes the listing stand out against console-only ones.
