Which consoles do you buy?
PlayStation 5 (disc, digital, and Slim), PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Xbox One S, and Xbox One X, Nintendo Switch, Switch OLED, Switch Lite, and Steam Deck LCD and OLED. Controllers, physical games, docks, and cases are included when they come in with a console.
Do my digital games add anything to the offer?
No. Games bought from the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store, Nintendo eShop, or Steam are tied to your account, not to the console, so they cannot be passed on with it. Only physical discs and Switch cartridges brought in with the console add to your offer. Sign out of your account before you come in and your library stays yours.
My disc drive or HDMI port is bad — or it overheats. Still worth bringing in?
Yes. A drive that will not read, take, or eject discs, an HDMI port that gives you no picture, a loud fan, and a console that shuts down from overheating are the most common console faults we see. They lower what a console is worth; they do not make it worth nothing. The same goes for a Switch or Steam Deck with a cracked screen.
What happens to my account, saves, and parental controls?
Remove them before you sell. Sign out of PlayStation Network, Xbox, Nintendo, or Steam, remove your profile from the console, and turn off parental controls and any PIN. If your saves matter to you, back them up or move them to your new system first — once a console is sold, we cannot get your account or saves back from it. A console still signed in or locked to an account cannot be bought.
Should I bring my games and extra controllers with the console?
Yes, if you are done with them. A second DualSense, a spare Xbox controller, a Pro Controller, an extra set of Joy-Con, headsets, docks, and cases brought in with a console go into the same offer. And bring the physical games off the shelf too — one stack of discs and cartridges, one visit, one payment.
Does it matter if I lost the HDMI cable, power cable, or dock?
You can still sell the console. A complete setup — console, controller, power supply, HDMI cable, and, for Switch, the dock — makes the strongest offer, because the next owner needs all of it to play. Missing pieces are noted in the offer; they do not end the sale.
How fast do I get paid?
Most visits take 10–15 minutes from walking in to getting paid. If you accept your offer, you're paid during that same visit — your choice of Cash, Zelle, or Cash App.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Walk into any store during open hours — Mon–Sat 10 AM – 6 PM, Sun 12 PM – 5 PM (Bastrop closed Sundays). If you want to check that we buy a specific model first, call us at 281-739-4316.
What do I need to bring?
Bring the console, a controller, and the power cable if you have them, plus the dock for a Switch and the case and charger for a Steam Deck. Physical games are optional and can be added to the same offer. You must be 18 or older and bring a valid photo ID to sell a console.
What consoles won't you buy?
We do not buy stolen consoles, and we cannot buy consoles that are password-locked, PIN-locked by parental controls, or still signed in and locked to someone's account. Sign out and remove your account before you come in — an unlocked console gets a faster visit and a better offer.
Another place already gave me an offer. Can you beat it?
Bring that offer with you — from PayMore or another store — and we'll beat it. A real person looks at your console's model, storage, edition, and condition, which is how we can pay more.
