Nintendo DS Selling Questions

Answers to common questions about selling your Nintendo DS games.

▶ What condition do Nintendo DS games need to be in?

Nintendo DS games with their original cartridge, case, artwork, and manual receive the full quoted price, subject to condition and authenticity checks. A missing manual results in a 40% deduction, while loose cartridges are purchased at half the quoted price.

▶ Do you buy Nintendo DS consoles?

Yes. See what we pay on our Nintendo DS consoles page.

▶ What happens if my Nintendo DS games are rejected?

We'll email you to explain which games were rejected and why. You can choose to have them recycled or returned to you. You're responsible for the shipping cost if you want rejected games returned.

▶ What is the best way to ship Nintendo DS games safely after selling?

Keep each game in its case, wrap your games in bubble wrap, and pack them tightly in a sturdy box. Put cushioning on the bottom of the box, since packages often get dropped by the carrier, and fill any empty space with padding so nothing shifts during shipping. For loose cartridges, use a protective game case or wrap each cartridge individually before packing.

▶ How do I get paid for my Nintendo DS games?

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. Orders over $100 also receive a free shipping label.
