Three-step selling process

The selling system is structured in three stages. First, the user searches for their items and gets an instant cash offer based on market value. Second, they print a prepaid USPS label, pack the items, and ship them at no cost from anywhere in the United States. Third, once received and inspected, payment is made via Venmo, PayPal, check, or CaveGamers store credit, the latter with a 10% bonus. The company covers all payment processing fees.

The minimum order to ship is $25. Most payments are issued within 1 to 2 business days after receiving the items; Venmo and PayPal payments arrive almost instantly, while checks take about 10 business days to arrive by mail.

Conditions, deductions, and complete collections

All items are tested upon arrival. If deductions exceed 10% of the total quoted, the company emails a revised offer for approval; the seller can accept it or request the return of their items. The full deductions policy is available on its website.

Sell My Games also buys complete collections. Users can add each title and console to a single quote or import a PriceCharting collection using the bulk upload tool, and ship everything together with a single prepaid label.

The company is operated by CaveGamers, a team that has been buying, selling, testing, and refurbishing video games since 2010. Sell My Games presents itself as its dedicated buyback service. The headquarters in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, has its own facilities where an experienced team manages the entire process, from receipt to payment, with no middlemen.
