i have a broken xbox 360 and im wondering if i can recycle it for some money .
Hi Dalton
I’ve had a scout around and no-one seems to be offering cash for a broken Xbox at the moment. Have you called Xbox to see how much they would charge to fix it? You could perhaps pay for the fix and then eBay it. Or just eBay broken. Someone out there will be looking for a broken Xbox to fix or use for parts.
Sorry we couldn’t find you a price on this occasion but keep checking as they’re sure to be available to recycle again soon.

Hey do you no any one who wants a broken ps3 its gt no hardrive no cables and no controls
I just want to recycle my 360 don’t care about money because my has been worked on, but unsuccessful. I have 2 360′s that don’t work only have the 3 red ring of death. is there a place that will accept them? because i do not want to throw them away for enviorment reason
really the only thing they are probably missing is the X clip.
Not sure about whether recycling consoles works for those consoles that do not actually work – do these recyclers accept these consoles if they arent working? The other options are of course, ebay, gumtree, speedsel.com and tradeyourgames.co.uk
liam if you still have the ps3 and you live close enough i would be willing to take it
i have a broken ds and i wud lyk to sell it for a little cash not sure where it wud b accepted tho
Hi I have a working PS3 with all the cables and controllers which has not been used much.I would like to find it a new home so If anyone is interested
Hi Reenie,
my Ps3 has recently suffered the dreaded ‘yellow light of death’, I would be more than happy to take the PS3 off your hands.
Kind Regards
