Used PS5 inspection checklist for GTA 6
An editorial buyer checklist that separates basic on-site observations from PlayStation's sourced transfer and reset steps; no price claims.
Editorial on-site observations
These are basic buyer observations, not PlayStation diagnostics: ask the seller to boot the console, demonstrate the agreed controller, ports, network connection, storage screen, and disc drive when present, and record visible damage, the serial number, and included accessories before payment.
Official handover steps
The cited PlayStation guide covers transferring data and restoring a console to factory settings before disposal or transfer. Have the seller complete the current official handover steps after your observations, then sign in only with your own account.
