Used video games in Brisbane typically sell for A$10 to A$77 (about $7 to $54). Individual games range from pennies to serious collector sums, and the difference is almost always the specific title rather than the platform.
Selling video games 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 video games are worth
What lifts the price
- Sought-after titles with small print runs
- Complete collections sold as a run
What pulls it down
- Disc scratches deep enough to cause read errors
- Sports titles and annual releases, which sell for very little
Working out what yours is worth
- Hold discs to the light at an angle to see scratches
- Search sold listings for that exact title and platform
Getting it ready
- Check every disc or cartridge for scratches, and confirm each is in its correct case with the correct artwork.
- Note the platform and region for each title, since region locking still affects some systems.

Cheap to post but heavier than expected in quantity, so weigh a bundle before quoting postage. Pack cases so they cannot crack against each other.
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 video games 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.
Will you split the bundle?
Decide before listing. Splitting usually totals more but takes far longer and leaves you with the unwanted remainder.
