The problem is that selling development hardware is bound to get taken down off eBay. Try selling it, and if it doesn't go down well, look for another marketplace site.I have already mailed nintendo and they said they could replace it for $250 dollars, nothing about them wanting it and no answer even weeks after I ignored them.
Nintendo ninjas be waiting out with a sniper rifle.Depends if you are bound a contract that prevent you from selling it, for a development studio they are not allow to sell it, selling it would get lawsuit.

I tried once listing my unpatched Switch on eBay and I got hit with a DMCA takedown.Haha kinda true, Nintendo was quick about going after people modding SX Core/Lite when that was going around.

At least its not as bad as Nintendo of America. They'll stalk you for the rest of your life.Must be wild for you in UK.

That's true. eBay strictly hides any items with the words 'hardmodded', 'softmod', 'modchip', amongst many others. I often tend to use PicClick if I'm searching for this stuff on my own.Keyword kinda matter a bit, like you can't really specific the chip, or even mention hard modded, modded, cfw etc lol.
Any recommendations?The problem is that selling development hardware is bound to get taken down off eBay. Try selling it, and if it doesn't go down well, look for another marketplace site.
You can try to sell it on facebook/craigslist, although I don't think the switch dev kit really worth anything, since anyone can straight buy it from nintendo as indie developer for like $500.Any recommendations?
lol same here, tried to sell an unpatched v1 on ebay before, they took it down within a day. Thought it's because I mentioned CFW so relisted it and specifically said it's factory reset, no mod or anything, they took it down again. No way to dispute it and if they take it down again they'll lock my account. Same happened before when I was selling a ps4 on 5.05 firmware.I tried once listing my unpatched Switch on eBay and I got hit with a DMCA takedown.
I'm not joking, this actually happened a year ago.
as much i have understood they SELL for 500 bucks and gamedevs get their for free, but they need to sign alot of papers and shit which makes it hard even for them.You can try to sell it on facebook/craigslist, although I don't think the switch dev kit really worth anything, since anyone can straight buy it from nintendo as indie developer for like $500.
What did you tell nintendo? Last time I saw someone got a dev kit and nintendo offered to replace it for free. If they are asking $250 for a replacement I'd just buy a used switch for almost half the price..

Just sell it on facebook marketplace or craigslist instead, plus they won't charge you a 20% service fee.
thanks for the tip but I dont know any collectors, so yeahSell it locally or to a dev unit collector I wouldn't list it on eBay, hell I wouldn't of emailed Nintendo to say I have a unit.
Judging by the amount of shovelware in eshop, I believe nintendo hands it out to anyone who applies and pays $500.but they need to sign alot of papers and shit which makes it hard even for them.
How much do you want for it?I have already mailed nintendo and they said they could replace it for $250 dollars, nothing about them wanting it and no answer even weeks after I ignored them.
