What a used sat nav is worth by condition
Condition does more to the price than anything else. These figures are worked from the top of the range for sat navs, so treat them as a starting point and adjust for the specifics of yours.
| Condition | Typical price | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| New with Tags | £70 | Unused, tags or seals intact |
| Like New | £59 | Barely used, no visible wear |
| Good | £45 | Light signs of use, complete and working |
| Fair | £31 | Heavily used, or a described fault or missing part |
| For Parts | £17 | Not working or incomplete, sold as seen |
These are the five grades WishThrift listings use, and sellers set the grade themselves — see what each condition grade means. Figures are shown in pounds as a reference point. On WishThrift prices display in your own currency, and sellers set their own asking price.
What raises the value of a sat nav
- Lifetime map update entitlements
- Recent map versions already installed
- Complete with mount, charger and case
- Recognised navigation brands
What lowers it
- Maps years out of date with no update path
- Discontinued devices with no map support
- Missing mounts and chargers
- Failed touchscreens and batteries
How to work out what yours is worth
- Check the map version and whether updates are still available
- Confirm the mount and charger are present
- Test the touchscreen and battery
Once you have those three answers you can place your own sat nav on the table above with reasonable confidence. If it sits between two rows, price it toward the lower one — items priced honestly sell faster than items priced hopefully.

Frequently asked questions
Are sat navs still worth selling?
For modest sums, mainly to drivers who prefer not to use a phone. Map currency is what decides usability.
Do lifetime maps transfer?
It varies by maker. Check before advertising it, since it is a significant part of the value.
Does the mount matter?
Yes. Mounts are device-specific and a sat nav without one is much less useful.
