Used TVs in Brisbane typically sell for A$115 to A$765 (about $81 to $540). Televisions depreciate steeply, so the useful question is not age but panel type and whether the smart platform still works properly.
Selling a TV in Brisbane
Brisbane is subtropical, and that genuinely determines what survives second hand here. Humidity is hard on anything upholstered, wooden or electronic that has been stored badly, and buyers who have lived here a while will ask where an item was kept before they ask anything else.
The city has grown quickly through interstate migration, and people arriving from Sydney and Melbourne routinely sell up rather than freight everything north. That produces a steady supply of good furniture at sensible prices.
The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Ask where the item was stored before anything else. Humidity here is hard on upholstery, timber and electronics alike, and something kept in an unventilated garage can be well past saving while still looking fine.

What TVs are worth
What lifts the price
- A screen with no burn-in, dead pixels or backlight banding
- A smart platform still receiving app updates
What pulls it down
- Burn-in on OLED panels from static logos
- Older smart platforms where apps no longer install
Working out what yours is worth
- Confirm the remote, stand and power lead are all present
- Note the exact model number from the rear panel
Getting it ready
- Power it on and display a plain white image, then a plain black one, to reveal dead pixels, backlight bleed and clouding.
- Locate the stand, feet, screws and remote. A television missing its stand or remote loses more value than the parts cost to replace.

Effectively a collection-only item: televisions are fragile, awkward and expensive to post, and courier damage claims on screens rarely succeed. Let the buyer see it powered on before they take it, which suits both of you.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell a TV in Brisbane?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Do the smart apps still work?
Test the ones people actually use. Older smart televisions often lose app support, and it is far better disclosed than discovered.
