You can currently pick up a Nintendo Switch for just £172.49 in the latest eBay sale. The RENEW25 sale is the latest in a string of eBay codes, with this current code focusing on refurbished tech items.
The standard model isn’t the only Switch included in the sale either. If you’d rather get your hands on the OLED model, you can pick it up for just £213 using the same code. Or, if you’re after something a bit less full-on, the lite edition is down to £123.74. Savings all around.
Refurbished tech still has a bit of a stigma behind it, but trust us when we say it’s the most affordable way to buy a video game console in 2024. Not only that but both these consoles are in ‘Very Good’ condition, which pretty much means you’ve got nothing to worry about.
Here’s what MusicMagpie has said about the refurbished consoles as well so you’re fully informed before making any purchases: “This product is in very good cosmetic condition, there will be signs of wear which may include light scratches and/or scuffs but nothing that will impair functionality. The item has been fully tested, restored to factory settings, and is in excellent working order.”
Switches aren’t the only console in the eBay deal. The PlayStation 5 digital edition is down to £310, while the disc version sits at £340. Is worth remembering that this isn’t the latest model of the PS5, that model is known as the Slim. But still, if you want to get your hands on any kind of PlayStation 5, you’ll do well to get it for less than £310.
