Sell Your Used PS5 Games — 0% Fees

Used PS5 games typically sell for £10 to £45, and on WishThrift it costs you nothing to list — no fee, no commission, so you keep the whole amount you agree. PS5 discs hold value better than previous generations, so check each title individually before bundling — one of them may be worth more than the rest combined.

The short version

Cost to sell here: nothing, at any price

Before you photograph it

Ten minutes here is worth more than anything else you will do. Buyers are deciding between your listing and someone else’s, and preparation is what visibly separates the two.

Inspect each disc for scratches and confirm it is in the correct case with the correct artwork.
Check whether any title includes a redeemed download code, and say so, since an unredeemed code adds value and a redeemed one does not.
Note the region on each case, since PS5 discs are region free for play but not always for artwork and language.

The photographs that sell PS5 games

Four photographs do almost all the work. Shoot in daylight, near a window, with the item against something plain — and do not use the flash, which flattens texture and hides exactly what buyers are trying to see.

The games laid out with spines and artwork visible
The disc surfaces out of their cases
Any insert, code card or steelbook detail
Any scratch, cracked case or missing artwork

Photograph the flaws too. It feels counterproductive, but a listing that shows the worst of an item gets fewer questions, fewer withdrawn offers and fewer arguments at handover. Buyers who can see the damage stop imagining something worse.

Writing the title and description

Name the titles, because that is the search: “PS5 Games Bundle — Spider-Man 2, Elden Ring, FIFA 24”. Never list as just “PS5 games”. If a title is a steelbook or special edition, say so — those carry a real premium.

Then state these in the description, because a buyer who has to ask is a buyer who might not bother:

Exact titles and editions, including any steelbook or special edition
Disc condition and whether cases and artwork are complete
Whether any download codes are included and unredeemed
Region of each disc

What buyers will actually ask

You will receive the same three messages about PS5 games. Answering them in the listing itself removes the back-and-forth, and answering them well when they do arrive is what turns an enquiry into a sale.

“Are the codes unredeemed?”

Check and answer honestly. An unredeemed code adds real value; a redeemed one is worthless and claiming otherwise ends badly.

“Any scratches on the discs?”

Photograph the play surfaces under good light. PS5 discs are read at high speed and deep scratches genuinely cause failures.

“Will you sell them separately?”

Decide first. Individually valuable titles are usually worth listing alone; the rest are better bundled.

Pricing it so it actually sells

Start from the honest condition grade rather than the price you hope for. WishThrift listings use five grades — New with Tags, Like New, Good, Fair and For Parts — and what each grade means is worth reading before you choose, because grading up is the most expensive mistake sellers make. It does not raise the price; it produces a buyer who arrives expecting something else.

The PS5 games value guide prices all five grades for this item. Pick your grade, take the figure, and if you sit between two grades price toward the lower one. Items priced honestly sell faster than items priced hopefully, and on a free platform there is no fee eating the difference anyway.

What you keep, compared

On a £27 sale — roughly the middle of the range for PS5 games — here is what the commission-charging platforms would take, and what you would keep on each:

Where you sell it	Fee	You keep
WishThrift	£0	£27
Poshmark	−£5	£22
eBay	−£4	£23
Mercari	−£3	£24
Etsy	−£2	£25

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026 — Poshmark: 20% commission on sales of $15 and above; eBay: 13.6% final value fee, plus a per-order fee; Mercari: flat 10% selling fee; Etsy: 6.5% transaction fee, plus a listing fee and payment processing. Percentages are applied to the sterling figure above; the fixed per-order and processing charges those platforms add are quoted in their own currency and are not included here, so the real deductions are slightly larger. Full breakdown: marketplace selling fees compared.

Timing and getting it to the buyer

Strong and steady, with a Christmas peak. Recent major titles sell within days; annual sports releases lose value sharply once the next edition lands, so sell those early.

Light and cheap to post. Pack so cases cannot crack, and consider a bubble mailer rather than a plain envelope.

WishThrift does not process payments or arrange delivery — you and the buyer agree both directly — so confirm payment has cleared before the item leaves your hands, and keep the conversation on the site so there is a record of what was agreed.

Frequently asked questions

What are used PS5 games worth?

Typically £10 to £45 per title, with recent releases and special editions above that. See the PS5 games value guide for the range.

Do PS5 games hold their value?

Better than previous generations, largely because disc releases are becoming less common. Annual sports titles are the exception and drop sharply each autumn, so sell those before the new edition.

Are PS5 discs region locked?

Discs play across regions, but the packaging, language options and any download codes may be region specific. State the region on the case so buyers know what they are getting.
