Sell used hardware in Switzerland
If your device has been sitting in a drawer for months, the Swiss second hand market is often easier than listing it on a marketplace. You do not need to answer messages, arrange meetups, or take risks with strangers. At Games and More, you describe your device in a few clicks and see your price straight away, no photos needed. You send the device in for free or drop it off in Holziken by appointment, and get paid to your account after the check. That is the simple way if you want to save time and still sell properly.
Marketplace or shop, the difference in daily life
On a marketplace, you sell directly to private buyers. That can work, but all the work stays with you. You need good photos, you answer messages, discuss accessories, negotiate in person, and maybe handle a complaint later. With a shop like Games and More, the process is different. First you enter the details on the sell used devices page. Then we look at everything and tell you whether the purchase makes sense. That saves you many small steps that take time in everyday life. In the end, it is not only about the offer, but also about how much effort and uncertainty you avoid.
What really affects the value of a used device
The value of a device does not depend on how long it sat with you, but on its condition. Function, completeness, accessories, and original packaging all matter. A device that starts properly, is complete, and has its accessories is easier to check and resell than one with missing parts or an unclear history. Visible wear also matters. Heavy use, broken parts, or missing cables reduce the value. That is why it helps to describe exactly what you have on the selling page, meaning the condition, the accessories and what no longer works. That way we can quickly see whether we can buy the device and whether it fits our range.
How the purchase process works with us
The process is deliberately simple. On the sell page, you describe what you have in a few clicks and leave your name and e-mail. No photos needed. You see our offer straight away, with no waiting. If it suits you, you receive a free shipping slip from us to print out, pack the device and drop the parcel off at the post office. Or you drop it off in Holziken by appointment. We check everything ourselves in Holziken in the canton of Aargau and transfer the money to your account within 48 hours of the check. You already enter your account details at the end of the request, so the money arrives without further questions.
What happens if the condition does not match what you told us
Sometimes the check shows that something is different from the description. It might be a missing accessory, a fault, or a more used condition. If something differs from what you told us when we check it, we come back to you and you decide in your own time. If you do not agree, we send the device back free of charge. For you, the whole process remains free of charge. That is why it is worth describing honestly and exactly what is there and what no longer works. It reduces follow-up questions and gives you clarity faster. If the condition is too poor or the work needed for checking and preparation would be too high, we say that as well. Not every device is worth buying.
Why a family business matters for second hand hardware
With used consoles, games, and cameras, the difference is often in the details. A cable is missing, a contact is weak, a battery is tired. That is why we check every item ourselves. Games and More is a family business in Holziken in the canton of Aargau, and that shapes the process. We buy, check, repair, and resell without passing items on blindly. What we sell goes through our own hands. That gives you more certainty than an anonymous resale, because you know the device has been checked. Items we sell come with 12 months warranty and a 30 day return right. You can read more on the warranty and returns page. So if you want to let go of an old console, game, camera, phone or laptop, the process starts with a short description in a few clicks, not with haggling.
