About Console Vault®

South Africa's Trusted Gaming Technology Exchange

Console Vault® is South Africa's C2B2C (Consumer-to-Business-to-Consumer) marketplace for professionally verified gaming consoles, gaming PCs, gaming laptops, smartphones, and accessories.

We are not a listings board. We are a controlled exchange where every eligible device passes through our hands before reaching its next owner. This eliminates the risks of peer-to-peer transactions—faulty devices, misleading descriptions, payment disputes, and unreliable sellers.

We don't simply list products. We inspect, verify, and stand behind every device.

Built on Trust

Every device listed on Console Vault® undergoes our mandatory Vault Certified® inspection. Our technicians test, grade, and document each item so buyers know exactly what they are purchasing.

Every Vault Certified® listing includes:

  • Professional functionality testing and hardware diagnostics
  • Cosmetic grading (A, B, or C)
  • Thermal performance assessment
  • Serial number verification
  • A detailed assessment report & High-resolution product photography

"If it isn't Vault Certified®, it isn't listed. That is our commitment."

Two Ways to Sell

Console Vault® serves two types of sellers with two distinct solutions:

Vault Certified® Consignment

For sellers who want maximum return. We professionally test, certify, photograph, market, and sell your device while you retain ownership until the sale is complete. We manage enquiries, payments, and delivery. You receive the highest possible price after fees and commission.

Vault Owned® Fast Cash

For sellers who need immediate liquidity. We purchase eligible, high-demand devices outright after assessment. You receive immediate payment. Ownership transfers to us, and we handle the rest.

Shop With Confidence

Every product on Console Vault® is either Vault Owned® (our inventory) or Vault Certified® (professionally listed on consignment).

Browse our growing range:

  • • PlayStation®, Xbox®, Consoles
  • • Gaming PCs and Laptops
  • • Smartphones
  • • Spares, Accessories, and Replacement Parts

Every listing includes transparent grading, assessment results, and detailed imagery—so you know exactly what you are buying.

Protected Beyond the Sale

Eligible devices qualify for our optional Performance Protection Plan, including preventative maintenance, internal cleaning, thermal servicing, and a 12-month overheating warranty.

Our secure platform also provides:

  • PayFast payment processing
  • Automated invoices and order tracking
  • Nationwide delivery
  • Dedicated customer support

Our Mission

Console Vault® is South Africa's premier marketplace for pre-owned gaming consoles, gaming PCs, gaming laptops, smartphones, and gaming accessories. We replace the uncertainty of online classifieds and peer-to-peer marketplaces with professional testing, transparent grading, verified quality, and a secure buying and selling experience.

Our Promise

"If it's not in the Vault®, don't trust it."

Every eligible device is professionally inspected, tested, and either Vault Certified® or sold as Vault Owned®, giving buyers and sellers the confidence to transact with complete peace of mind.
