Selling your Xbox Series S — what to know
The Xbox Series S is the most common console in UK drawers right now — millions were sold as second consoles and Game Pass machines, and many were retired after an upgrade to the Series X or a gaming PC. It still has solid trade-in demand, in both the 512GB original and the 1TB Carbon Black revision.
Cosmetic condition matters less than function: as long as the console powers on and reads the SSD, wear and dust are expected. Factory reset it (Settings, then System, then Console info, then Reset console) and remove your Microsoft account before posting.

What condition is your Xbox Series S in?
TechLoop buys every Xbox Series S across four condition grades. Pick the one that matches your device when you get your quote — the price updates instantly. If our inspection disagrees with the grade you chose, we send a counteroffer. You can always decline and we return your Xbox Series S free of charge.

Faulty or broken Xbox Series S? Still worth selling.
We accept Xbox Series S devices with scuffed casings, dust inside, faulty HDMI ports, disc drive issues or controller pairing problems. Select Poor condition when you get your quote and you'll see the price for that grade instantly — no estimate, no "we'll let you know after inspection". The only devices we can't buy are ones that won't power on, are locked to another account (iCloud, Google, Samsung), or have been reported lost or stolen.
Xbox Series S buyback — common questions
The five things most people ask before selling a Xbox Series S.
How much is a used Xbox Series S worth at TechLoop?
Our top price for a Xbox Series S in Pristine condition is £148. The final amount depends on the exact storage, colour and condition you select. You get an instant quote before committing, and the price is locked for 21 days from the moment you generate it. Four condition grades are available — Pristine, Good, Fair and Poor — and the quote updates live as you switch between them, so you can see exactly what an honest description of your device is worth before committing to anything. Prices track the UK resale market and update regularly, which means the quote you generate today reflects current demand rather than a stale published table. Because the price is locked for 21 days, a falling market cannot pull your quote down after you have generated it — and if you decide not to sell, the quote simply expires with no obligation and nothing to cancel.
Can I sell a cracked or broken Xbox Series S?
Yes. TechLoop buys Xbox Series S devices in Poor condition — heavy wear, cracks, dents or functional faults are accepted as long as the device powers on and boots. Select "Poor" when you generate your quote and you'll see the price for that grade instantly, before you post anything: no "send it in and we'll make you an offer" uncertainty. Damaged devices retain real value because they are refurbished or used for parts recovery, so even a rough Xbox Series S is usually worth meaningfully more than the nothing it earns in a drawer. The only devices we cannot accept are ones that won't power on at all, are still locked to an iCloud, Google or Samsung account, or have been reported lost or stolen — those are legal and practical hard limits, not grading decisions.
How do I sell my Xbox Series S to TechLoop?
Search for your Xbox Series S, pick the storage and condition, and get an instant quote — the whole thing takes about 30 seconds and doesn't require an account. Accept the quote and we email you a free Royal Mail tracked shipping label; if you're in or around Swindon you can instead walk into our Cheney Manor unit or arrange free doorstep collection. Pack the device securely (no box or charger needed — we only buy the device itself), drop it at any Post Office, and tracking covers it door to door. We inspect it the same day it arrives at our Swindon facility, and provided the condition matches what you selected, payment goes out by bank transfer the same working day. Your quoted price is locked for 21 days, so there's no rush to post.
How long does it take to get paid for a Xbox Series S?
Payment for your Xbox Series S is sent by bank transfer the same working day we inspect it at our Swindon facility, and most UK banks show the money within minutes of it being sent. The realistic end-to-end timeline is three to five days: quote today, post tomorrow, one to two days in Royal Mail's tracked network, then same-day inspection and payment on arrival. If our inspection finds the condition doesn't match what you selected, we don't silently reduce the price — you receive a counteroffer with the reason, and you choose: accept it and get paid the same day, or decline it and we return your Xbox Series S free of charge. Walk-in customers at our Swindon unit are paid on the spot, in cash or by instant transfer.
Is my data safe when I sell my Xbox Series S?
Yes — but the first line of defence is yours. Before posting your Xbox Series S, back up anything you want to keep, sign out of all accounts (iCloud, Google or Samsung), and run a factory reset; signing out first matters because a reset alone does not remove activation locks. Any device that arrives still signed in or account-locked cannot legally be processed and will be returned free of charge, which delays your payment — so those two minutes of preparation genuinely pay for themselves. On our side, every device we receive gets a GDPR-compliant data wipe during processing regardless of whether you reset it, and TechLoop is registered with the ICO, the UK's data protection regulator. Your personal data never survives the buyback process, whichever side of it does the wiping.
