I live by the penny, 70 bucks is a lot

I got my Switch Lite used from a local game store for $120 with the charger. As long as you look at the condition of the console, which I did before I bought it, I’d say it’s a good purchase

I got a used OLED switch from Mercari for $190. It even came with 2 games for free. The one thing it was missing was an HDMI cord but I have a few of those laying around anyways. The Switch looked like it was barely used and in perfect condition. Overall I had a really good experience with that app. I’ve even bought a few game bundles on there with no issues.

I have a pre-owned switch from my brother for 156 bucks and it has close to no scratches and he had it for two years and came with everything and even a screen protector

I bought a used one for 200 6-7 months ago and I legitimately couldn't tell that it had been used, they even packaged it back all nice in the original box for me. Just be careful who you buy from and inspect the item before you accept it. There's almost no reason to buy a new switch for 80-100 bucks more if you don't need to, unless you just have the extra cash to spare, or feel like you absolutely NEED to buy new

switch brand new in my country costs about 700 dollars plus the currency lost 50% of its value soo it's looks like 1400 dollars to me 💀
thank you Egypt

I got a pretty good lightly used switch for less than $200, it was just missing the joy con connector. Never doubt your options, they could surprise you.

With my lite and OLED, I bought them second hand a month or so after the newest version released to try and get them pretty much new but at a discounted price. My lite had a tiny scuff on the back but was otherwise in perfect condition and my splatoon oled was immaculate and I got the box with it (without the inserts) for an unboxed price.

With my old regular switch though, I was desperate for one I could play on the tv so when I saw a green/pink joycon one in my local store about a year and a half ago I bought it immediately. Wasn’t in the best condition (slightly loose joycons and stand, game card flap doesn’t close properly, charging cable wobbled a good bit) - but up until recently it had no issues. Gave it to a friend as it’s still playable and got myself the splatoon OLED that I saw in the same store the next day when I got paid.

(Also regular switches over here are about £60-£80 cheaper if you get them second hand)

My verdict - do what you want but I’m a cheapskate so I try to save a little bit of cash as I’m a student who can’t save money for my life 😂

Go used. Got my switch for 120 came with dock, extra set of joycons, carrying case, pro controller and fifa 23. The pro controller is the only thing that didn’t work 😂

[gregthomson]

I bought a used second switch specifically for a first gen to mod.

[zgamer]

Yesterday I bought my first Switch used without a scratch on it for $150 on Craigslist it came with everything plus a carrying case and a pro controller

[Camaraa]

Don’t forget the joy con drift. A nice new one you won’t have to spend $70 for a new joy con.

[ajx]

Not to mention you get to inhale that fresh new smell! 😤👃😌

[lhcplayz]

Bought mine for €60 came with breath of the wild and a charger (no dock). It’s been a year and it’s still going strong.

[stevehernan]

I bought a used switch for $170, luckily is almost new. NO scratch or deformations and included all, unless the box.

[DylanVsTheWorld]

You may call this strange but I NEED that experience of unpacking the box and doing a first time setup. It’s special.

[catgirljune]

I got mine pre-owned and it works amazing and doesn’t have any scratches. I basically always buy pre-owned

[untitled_lucario]

i only got used for 225$ because it was in perfect condition, had a pro controller, and a carrying case.
Edit: It's also hac-001 (moddable)

[midnite]

I got a gen 1 switch for $150. Dock is little finicky but it was an amazing buy.

[roxannewalker]

I bought an OLED switch for only $250 and it only has one scratch. I think it was a steal
