You can resell used gaming mice, keyboards and headsets on eBay for a lot of money. Here you can find out which models are particularly worthwhile for resale.
Almost every month there are new gaming accessories from well-known brands such as Logitech, Roccat, Razer, Corsair and Co. The prices of new products often rise. But: Older and even used models sometimes retain a large part of their value. You can resell these on eBay and thereby finance parts of your new setup.
But there isn’t just “the one gaming product”. Gaming is individual. The accessories usually consist of at least a gaming mouse, gaming keyboard and gaming headset. You can achieve top resale prices on eBay in all three categories mentioned. Below we show you the most popular models.
gaming mice
Weight, size, software, programmability, number of buttons…these are just some of the sticking points that can turn a gaming mouse that suits you into a piece of scrap metal. But it doesn’t have to come to that, because you can resell your old devices on eBay for free.
Well-known brands are also popular when it comes to resale. Logitech is way ahead, but Roccat and Razer are also well-established manufacturers among gamers. In general, the newer the model, the better the resale price.
But how do you say it so beautifully? “Exceptions prove the rule.” Because: The Logitech G502 Hero was already released in 2018. Nevertheless, last year it achieved an average of over 50 percent of the current new price when resold on eBay.
Model | Average resale price | Current new price | Ratio Wvp to new price |
---|---|---|---|
Roccat Kone Aimo Remastered | 22 euros | 36 euros | 61 percent |
Logitech G502 Hero | 27 euros | 46 euros | 59 percent |
Razer Naga Trinity | 33 euros | 65 euros | 51 percent |
Logitech G Pro Wireless | 45 euros | 90 euros | 50 percent |
Logitech G703 Lightspeed | 32 euros | 99 euros | 32 percent |

Across the board, the popular gaming mice achieve impressive resale prices. The front runner is the Roccat Kone AIMO Remastered. Compared to the current new price, you can count on almost all models shown with 50 percent or more. The values show: a resale on eBay is worthwhile.
gaming keyboards
Tactile and auditory feedback are popular keyboard features among gamers. It may be that you bought a model that felt good at first, but not anymore after a few months. You can resell your used gaming keyboard for free on eBay.
Well-known brands such as Corsair, Roccat and Razer are also welcome when it comes to gaming keyboards that are often and efficiently resold. Compared to the current new price, you can resell some gaming keyboards for a lot of money.
Model | Average resale price | Current new price | Ratio Wvp to new price |
---|---|---|---|
Roccat Magma | 25.49 euros | 29.99 euros | 85 percent |
Corsair K100 RGB | 139.79 euros | 184.73 euros | 75 percent |
SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL | 105.66 euros | 166.59 euros | 63 percent |
Sharkoon Skiller Mech SGK3 | 24.14 euros | 59.89 euros | 40 percent |
Razer Ornate V2 | 35.62 euros | 98.76 euros | 36 percent |

Many branded keyboards have very good switches under the keys, so that they are extremely durable and thus retain a considerable part of their value. In addition, it is usually possible to replace buttons and / or switches yourself. If a used product has only one or two defects, it can often be repaired inexpensively by yourself.
For the resale value of the Corsair K100 RGB, you can buy another gaming keyboard in the upper midfield without having to make many compromises.
On eBay you can achieve resale values between 30 and well over 50 percent of the current new price of the models. It is also shown here again: resale on eBay is worthwhile.
gaming headsets
For gaming headsets, the sound is usually the decisive factor in the first impression. Over longer gaming sessions, however, wearing comfort becomes more and more important. And you can’t test it for a short time. It may be that the headset just doesn’t suit you after a while of use. But no problem, because you can resell it safely, easily and free of charge on eBay.
Well-known gaming brands such as Corsair and Logitech are also represented here. But also beyerdynamic – a brand that is known for serious studio headsets, i.e. headsets that are not necessarily designed for gaming.
Model | Average resale price | Current new price | Ratio Wvp to new price |
---|---|---|---|
Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless | 74.10 euros | 133.90 euros | 55 percent |
Logitech G Pro X gaming headset | 45.49 euros | 95.99 euros | 47 percent |
SteelSeries Arctis 7P | 83.88 euros | 179.99 euros | 46 percent |
beyerdynamic MMX 300 | 104.77 euros | 235.00 euros | 44 percent |
Logitech G533 | 28.63 euros | 71.44 euros | 40 percent |

The table shows: you can achieve really good resale values on eBay in every price range. On average, about 45 percent of the current new price was paid for used models in the past 12 months.
The percentage values do not look as impressive in this category as they do in mice and keyboards. However, the prices here are quite stable, since signs of wear, for example on the material surrounding the ear, can be repaired cheaply by replacing them, especially with more expensive models.
