Snag A PS5 DualSense Controller For $45 (Preowned)

DualSense controllers are almost listed for their regular price of $70-$75, so it’s not easy to find a deal on a second controller for multiplayer. But if you don’t mind picking up an open box version, you can snag a DualSense for just $55 on eBay. Free shipping and returns are both included with your purchase, and you’ll have 30 days to send the DualSense back if it doesn’t live up to your standards. Only the white controller is available, as all of the other colors have sold out.

Alternatively, you can get a preowned white DualSense for only $45 at GameStop, which is one of the lowest prices we’ve seen the controller for (even preowned models). The five other colors are available for $50 each at GameStop.

Open Box – $55 (was $70) | Preowned – $40

If you want a controller that’s in basically brand-new condition, the open box controllers from eBay is the way to go here. Keep in mind that it might be missing some of the original packaging, though. With over 20,000 positive reviews in the past 12 months, you’re definitely buying from a reputable seller.

GameStop’s $45 price only extends to the white DualSense controller. If you want a different color, GameStop sells the other five colors for $50 each.

The DualSense is arguably one of the coolest pieces of tech in recent years. It provides you with improved haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a built-in microphone for easy communication when online. PlayStation has released six different color models since the PS5 launched:

• White
• Midnight Black
• Cosmic Red
• Starlight Blue
• Galactic Purple
• Nova Pink
