A standard black Xbox Series X is a commodity. A Halo Infinite Limited Edition Series X is a trophy. Pawn shops know that collectors hunt for these specific designs, so they pay a premium—sometimes 20% to 30% more than the standard model.
Collector Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) These hold their value incredibly well. If you have the box, you are sitting on a gold mine.

Features That Add Value
Why does the Halo Infinite console cost more? It’s not just the paint.
- Custom Sounds: When you turn it on, it makes a Zeta Halo sound effect. Demonstrate this to the pawn broker! It proves it’s legitimate internals, not just a shell swap.
- Blue LED Vents: The top fan vent glows blue instead of green.
- The Matching Controller: This is crucial. If you pawn the console but keep the Halo controller, the console value drops by $80. Keep the set together.
The “Skin” Trap
Don't Be Fooled
Applying a “dbrand” sticker or a vinyl wrap to your Xbox does NOT make it a Limited Edition. In fact, pawn shops will likely charge you a “cleaning fee” to peel it off. If it’s a sticker, it’s worth less. If it’s factory paint, it’s worth more.
Negotiation Script for Limited Editions
Pawn brokers might be lazy and just look up “Xbox Series X” on eBay. You need to correct them.
You: “I see you offered $250, which is fair for a black Xbox. But this is the Halo Infinite Limited Edition. Only a few thousand were made. They sell for $550 used on eBay right now. The controller alone is worth $100. I’m looking for $380 for the full set.”
Use the rarity to your advantage. Remind them that this is a showpiece for their shop window, not just shelf filler.
Summary
If you have a Limited Edition, treat it like a collectible, not a used appliance. Clean it, box it, and demand the premium it deserves.

How We Calculate Pawn Values
Our price ranges are derived from publicly available data sources, including advertised pawn shop quotes, completed marketplace transactions, and community-reported offers. We apply consistent data processing methods:
- Deduplication and standardization of model names, storage tiers, and condition grades
- Outlier handling using winsorization or Tukey IQR methods
- Aggregation into condition buckets (A/B/C) with 20–80 percentile bands
Each guide includes a Batch ID and links to a downloadable sample CSV for transparency. For complete details on our methodology, data sources, and refresh cadence, see our full Methodology page .
FAQ
How much is the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X worth?
Pawn shops pay $350–$450 for a complete Halo Infinite Series X. The unique startup sound and blue vent lighting make it highly desirable.
What about the 20th Anniversary Controller?
Translucent black 20th Anniversary controllers fetch $30–$40, about $10 more than standard units.
Do console skins/wraps increase value?
No. Stickers or vinyl skins usually *lower* the value because the shop has to peel them off. Only factory-painted Limited Editions count.
Is the Starfield Wrap valuable?
Slightly. Since it's an official Microsoft accessory, it might add $20, but it's not a 'Limited Edition Console' per se.
