A refurbished PS5 is the cheapest way into the current generation: same games, same performance, without the new price. At SubSell every console is tested — video output, fan, drive, controller — and you can try it in store before buying. Every PS5 edition also takes an M.2 NVMe expansion SSD, so the console you buy today can grow with your game library instead of forcing constant deletes.
The refurbished PS5, in short
Disc or Digital, Slim or Pro: the right pick depends on your use. The disc edition plays physical and used games (cheaper long-term); the Digital is more affordable if you buy downloads. The Slim is more compact; the Pro targets high-framerate 4K and stronger ray tracing.
What "refurbished" means at SubSell
Every PS5 is tested before sale: HDMI output, cleaned fan, disc drive, USB ports and controller (drift, triggers). The console is reset and removed from the seller's account. You leave with at least one controller and a warranty, and you can test the console in store before paying.
Which PS5s we usually have
Stock turns over with trade-ins. We regularly have disc PS5 Standard and Slim, sometimes Digital and Pro, often with one or two controllers. Because inventory changes fast, fill the form or call: we'll tell you what's available today and what's coming in.
Warranty and returns
Every refurbished PS5 is covered by a store warranty. The length and return policy are confirmed at purchase. Buying in person lets you test the video output, hear the fan and try the controller of the exact console before deciding — impossible online.
Can you add storage to a refurbished PS5?
Yes. Every PS5 — Standard, Digital, Slim and Pro — has an M.2 expansion bay under the side panel that takes a standard PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD with a heatsink, no proprietary card required. On a refurbished console at SubSell we show you how to pop the cover off and confirm the added drive is recognized before you pay.
That matters because PS5 games are large and the built-in SSD fills up fast — being able to expand it yourself is a real edge of this generation. Not sure which edition fits? Come to 757 Rue Beaubien East by métro Beaubien in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie: we plug in the exact unit, load a game and let you judge the HDMI output, the fan and DualSense drift before deciding — something a Marketplace or Kijiji meetup can't give you.
Refurbished PS5 — which edition to choose
| Edition | Best for |
|---|---|
| PS5 Standard (disc) | Physical and used games, 4K Blu-ray, reselling games |
| PS5 Digital | Tight budget, fully download library |
| PS5 Slim | Less space, discreet setup |
| PS5 Pro | High-framerate 4K, stronger ray tracing, demanding players |
Frequently asked questions
Is a refurbished PS5 worth it?
Yes. The PS5 has few wear parts; tested and cleaned, a refurbished console gives the same experience as new for much less. We check HDMI output, the fan and the controller before sale.
How long does a used PS5 last?
A well-maintained PS5 lasts many years. The things to watch are fan dust and the HDMI port — we clean and test both before it goes on sale.
Does the refurbished PS5 come with a controller?
Yes, every console is sold with at least one working DualSense controller. We often have extra controllers available separately.
What should I check before buying a used PS5?
Video output (HDMI port), fan noise, the disc drive if present, and the controller (stick drift). In store, we run these tests with you before purchase — that's the whole point of buying in person.
If I buy a PS5 Slim, does the disc drive come attached?
The Slim's disc drive is detachable and pairs to the console over the internet. When we sell a Slim with a drive, we pair and test it in store so you leave with disc playback and 4K Blu-ray working.
