Used video games in India typically sell for ₹650 to ₹5,000 (about $7 to $54). Individual games sell slowly and bundles sell fast, so decide early which of yours is worth listing alone and group the rest.
What video games are worth in India

What lifts the price

- Complete collections sold as a run
What pulls it down
- Cracked cases, though these are cheap to replace
- Sports titles and annual releases, which sell for very little
Selling video games in India
UPI has largely replaced cash for in-person handovers and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. Cash on delivery is still widely expected for anything posted, and it is worth deciding your position on it before you list.
India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.
Two practical things shape a sale here. Courier serviceability varies by PIN code rather than by city, so check the buyer’s code before promising delivery. And packaging matters more than most sellers expect on long domestic routes — a poorly wrapped parcel arriving damaged is the commonest cause of a dispute.
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.
- Confirm manuals and inserts are present, which matters more on older titles than most sellers realise.

Put in the description
- Platform and region for every title
- Exact titles and editions included
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.
Steady, with a strong Christmas lift. Bundles move quickly; common individual titles sit for a long time.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the ₹5,150 a buyer pays is the ₹5,150 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 video games in India?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. UPI has largely replaced cash for in-person handovers and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. Cash on delivery is still widely expected for anything posted, and it is worth deciding your position on it before you list.
Do they all work?
Test as many as you reasonably can and say which you have verified. Being clear about what is untested is better than implying everything works.
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.
Does a missing manual matter?
For collectable titles, yes — complete-in-box copies sell for meaningfully more. For common games it barely registers.
