Our PlayStation 5 consoles have zero to minimal marks. We remove scratches and replace panels with deep marks or damage. We do not sell broken/damaged consoles.

Latest PS5 Prices in South Africa
PlayStation 5 prices have increased drastically, despite the rand strengthening against the US dollar. The increase is caused by the global RAM shortage, driven by AI development. This affects the prices of all electronics that use RAM, including the PlayStation 5.
Below are the latest prices for PS5 models in South Africa, and how our pre-owned prices compare. To see how prices have changed, read our PS5 Prices in South Africa blog.

Compare PS5 Models
All PS5 models can play any PS4 and PS5 games. All models support expandable storage up to 8 TB. Here's how each model compares:
PlayStation 5 Original Digital and Disc Version
The cheapest way to own a PS5, with the same performance as the newer Slim.
-
Our Pre-Owned Price: from R9,499 (Digital) · R9,999 (Disc)
-
New Price: no longer sold new (discontinued by Sony)
-
Storage: 825GB (about 667GB usable)
-
Disc drive: Disc or Digital version. A Digital can't add a drive later.
-
Size: the largest PS5, 3.4–4.5 kg
-
Model numbers: CFI-10xx, CFI-11xx and CFI-12xx. Numbers ending in A are Disc versions, and those ending in B are Digital. The later 11xx and 12xx models are lighter than the launch units.
Why buy the original PS5: It's the cheapest way to play every PS5 game, with the same performance as the Slim. The Disc version also plays PS4 game discs, so you can save even more on second-hand games.
PlayStation 5 Slim Digital and Disc Version
About 30% smaller and lighter than the original, with the same performance.
-
Our Pre-Owned Price: from R9,999 (Digital) · R10,999 (Disc)
-
New Price: R14,499 (Digital) · R15,499 (Disc)
-
Storage: 1TB (about 848GB usable). Some newer Digital units have 825GB, and we list the exact storage on every product.
-
Disc drive: Disc or Digital version. You can add a drive to the Digital later.
-
Size: 2.6–3.2 kg
-
Model numbers: CFI-20xx and CFI-21xx, with A for Disc and B for Digital. Some newer CFI-21xx Digital units have 825GB instead of 1TB, so we confirm the storage on every console we sell.
Why buy the PS5 Slim: You get the newest standard PS5 in a smaller body that fits more easily on a TV stand. Buy the Digital, and you can still add a disc drive later if you change your mind.
PlayStation 5 Pro (Disc Drive can be added)
The most powerful PS5, with sharper 4K graphics, smoother frame rates and better ray tracing.
-
Our Pre-Owned Price: from R18,499 (Digital) · R20,499 (with disc drive)
-
New Price: R21,999 (Digital) · R23,999 (with disc drive)
-
Storage: 2TB (about 1.89TB usable)
-
Disc drive: sold as Digital, and a drive can be added
-
Size: 3.1 kg
-
Model numbers: CFI-70xx, and the newer CFI-71xx revision from late 2025, which runs slightly quieter and uses a little less power. Same performance and storage.
Why buy the PS5 Pro: On a 4K TV, games marked “PS5 Pro Enhanced” look noticeably sharper and run more smoothly. It also has nearly three times the usable storage of the original, so you’ll delete games far less often.
