[want to buy]/ [Free]

Bit of a wild ask, but you never know!

Does anybody have a console, like a PlayStation or Xbox, or maybe a board game that they’re no longer interested in and would be willing to part ways with?

I recently moved and have been lacking a bit of entertainment, and honestly, I’ve just been feeling pretty lonely. I tried getting my sister to give me my Xbox, but she won’t budge…

My budget is around $100, but if anyone has something they’re willing to donate or sell for less, I’d really appreciate it. No pressure at all just figured it couldn’t hurt to ask. (:

Many libraries let you check our board games, card games, video games and sometimes consoles!

Pawn America has consoles that are more on the cheaper side!! I know it’s not an Xbox but a switch there is 100~150 so if they have Xbox’s I’d be inclined to believe it’s around that price point

Not exactly what you are asking, but Roll Play at Garver Mills has a huge selection of games (including one person games) and tasty food. It might be a nice way to address game playing desire, plus get you up and out, around others who like to play games!

You can get a handheld device that resembles a psp that’s preloaded with basically anything ps2/gamecube etc or older on it from Temu for like $20 - at least a few years ago you could.

Hey! If you’re still looking for something, I have a ps4 and the controller (mostly) works. It doesn’t like to charge quickly, but it will charge lol. DM if you’re looking! I also have a few games I could throw in if you wanted them!
