Sell your PlayStation

The easiest way to tell which Sony PlayStation you have is to check the model number. You can find it on the outside of the chassis, typically on the bottom, back or near the base.

Once you have your model number, you can reference it here.

Note that Sony releases multiple variations of each PlayStation model, each with a slightly different model number. PS4 and PS5 model numbers are comprised of:

• 3-letter prefix: Product type (for example, the prefix “CUH” denotes a PS4)
• 2-digit series number: Series (for example, “20” denotes a PS4 Slim)
• 2-digit region number: Region (for example, “01” denotes United States)
• 1-letter capacity/version number: Hard drive capacity (for example, “A” denotes 500GB capacity for the PS4) OR, in the case of the PS5, whether it has a disc drive

Use the following condition descriptions to determine the best match for your PlayStation

* Please note that each store has a slightly different way of determining an item’s condition.

Browse to Settings > System Storage Management > Total capacity will display on the screen

The true value of a PlayStation depends on its condition and specifications like model, capacity, etc. The most important factor will be the cosmetic and operational condition of your device. Of course, the better the condition the more money in your pocket, but the companies we search will even purchase broken devices!

Console values depreciate by around 40% over one year, but that rate jumps to 75% over three years. At the same time, values for old console models drop by 15% or more after a new flagship is released. That means you should sell as soon as possible to get the most money for your used console.
