I've been working on a project at my current job and trying to find a way to deal with a large number of broken xbox360s, ps3s and wiis.. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any place that buys broken consoles (preferably in bulk)? Perhaps a refurb type place that will just take them off my hands for cheap? I've got a couple extras at my house that I would love to get rid of as well hahaha. Thanks for the help!

I would just put it on craigslist since it is free to list there. sometimes people buy broken consoles off ebay if they are cheap enough too. Myself I like working on broken cartridge based systems and swapping parts to make at least 1 good working system out of a few, as long as the lot doesn't have the same problem with each system. I find NES one of the easiest to work on, as well as game controllers in hard-wired systems like Intellivision.

Gamestop actually will buy broken consoles, though they usually won't take in Red Ringed 360s.

If you are trying to get rid of them in bulk, Craigslist is usually your best bet. If you don't care about money and just want to get rid of them, find an e-cycle program in your area. Best Buy does it for free on most items if you can't find any other place.

eBay would be the easiest. Group everything together and sell in one massive listing.

Depending on what kind of PS3's you have and their issues, I might be interested in taking a few off of your hands.
