Sell Your Video Games in Canada

Used video games in Canada typically sell for C$9 to C$75 (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.

What lifts the price

Sought-after titles with small print runs
Discs and cartridges free of deep scratches

What pulls it down

Disc scratches deep enough to cause read errors
Missing manuals and inserts on collectable titles

Selling video games 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.

Two practical things shape a Canadian sale. Interprovincial shipping costs can exceed the value of a mid-priced item, which is why so much trade here is collection-only. And winter genuinely interrupts handovers in much of the country, so agree a window rather than a fixed day between December and March.

Working out what yours is worth

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.

Platform first, then whether it is a bundle: “PS4 Game Bundle — 8 Titles Including FIFA and GTA V”. Naming two or three recognisable titles in the title pulls in searches for those games specifically. For a single valuable game, list it alone with the exact edition.

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.

It costs nothing to list

There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the C$75 a buyer pays is the C$75 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Canada is a big place and what sells well moves with it. These are the parts of Canada with their own page for video games.

Common questions

Where can I sell video games 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.

Will you split the bundle?

Decide before listing. Splitting usually totals more but takes far longer and leaves you with the unwanted remainder.

Which video games are worth the most?

Titles with small print runs and strong followings, especially sealed or complete in box. Annual sports releases are worth very little.

Should I sell games individually or as a bundle?

Valuable titles individually, common ones as a lot. Check a few before bundling, as one title often carries most of the value.
