Xbox models we buy
Tell us the exact console and storage size. If yours is not listed, ask anyway.
Xbox Series X
Xbox Series X in the 1TB, the all-digital 1TB and the 2TB versions. The disc model has a drive on the front; the all-digital one does not.
Xbox Series S
Xbox Series S in the 512GB and 1TB versions. It is the smaller, all-digital console, so there is no disc slot.
Xbox One family
Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox One X. These are older consoles and still worth a message.
Controllers and extras
Xbox Wireless Controllers, the Elite Series 2, Adaptive Controller, headsets, charging kits, external drives and boxed games.
Before you sell this Xbox
Microsoft’s checklist for handing over a console includes: change your home console setting, disassociate the console from the Xbox Insider Program, reset it to factory settings, and unregister it from your account. Back up your settings and make sure saves and clips are uploaded first. The reset is usually under Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info > Reset console, and you choose Reset and remove everything. That erases accounts, saved games, settings, installed games and home Xbox associations. Microsoft’s page says anything not uploaded to the Xbox network will be lost. To clear the home console, many guides place it at Settings > General > Personalization > My home Xbox, but follow what your own screen shows. Take out any external drive you want to keep.
What to bring
The console, power cable, HDMI cable and every controller you have, along with the original box if you kept it. Bring any external hard drive or storage expansion card, and your headset.
