What is the trade-in value of a Sega Genesis console?
The Old School Game Vault lists a current cash trade-in value for each Sega Genesis console bundle on this page, with separate offers for Model 1, Model 2, and Model 3. For the full listed bundle price, your console and accessories must work and be in good cosmetic condition. Include the console, two genuine controllers, an AC adapter, an A/V cable or RF switch, and a Sonic game: Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, or Sonic Spinball.
More details
- Missing items lower the offer. Select the applicable adjustments on the console's listing before submitting your order.
- You can also sell extra Genesis accessories in the same order, with a separate cash offer for each item. These include genuine and 3rd party controllers, the Power Base Converter, the Game Genie, the light gun, the Multi-Tap, AC adapters, A/V cables, and the RF switch. The Power Base Converter, which plays Sega Master System games on a Genesis, gets our highest accessory offer.
- Third-party controllers can be sold separately, but they don't replace the genuine controllers required for full bundle value.
- These are our current buying offers, rather than estimated retail resale values.
What condition should a used Sega Genesis be in to sell?
The Old School Game Vault buys working Sega Genesis consoles in good cosmetic condition. Before you sell, test that it powers on, plays games, and has working controller ports.
More details
- Wipe the outside of the console and accessories with a dry or lightly damp cloth to remove dust.
- We don't buy broken consoles. If we need to open up a console to fix or adjust anything, we also consider it broken.
- Final payment is subject to condition and testing.
Sega Genesis Console Selling Questions
▶ What Sega Genesis consoles do you buy?
We buy Sega Genesis Model 1, Model 2, and Model 3 console bundles. We also buy the Sega Nomad.
▶ How do I sell my Sega Genesis console?
Select your Sega Genesis console on this page, mark any missing items, and click "Sell It" to add it to your trade-in cart. At checkout, enter your information and choose how you'd like to be paid. We process orders in batches, so expect your order confirmation email within 24 to 48 hours of submitting. Orders of $100 or more receive a free shipping label.
▶ What is the best way to ship a Sega Genesis console safely?
Wrap the console in bubble wrap and pack it in a sturdy box with cushioning on all sides. Put extra cushioning on the bottom of the box, since packages often get dropped by the carrier. Put the controllers, AC adapter, A/V cable or RF switch, and Sonic game together in a Ziploc bag, so everything sold with the bundle stays in one separate bag. Fill any empty space so nothing shifts during shipping.
▶ How fast will The Old School Game Vault pay me?
You'll receive payment within 3 to 4 business days after your order is received and processed, by PayPal, Zelle, Venmo, Apple Cash, check, or Amazon Gift Card. If your package arrives on a weekend or holiday, we won't start processing it until the next business day.

Yes. You can shop for retro Sega games, consoles, and accessories in our online store.
