Sell Your Antiques in Moncton

Used antiques in Moncton typically sell for C$47 to C$1,150 (about $34 to $810). Antique values swing on maker, period and condition, and the market has shifted so that some categories are worth far less than they were.

Selling locally means the buyer collects from you or meets you nearby, so nothing fragile has to survive a courier and there is no packing to do.

Selling antiques in Moncton

Moncton is the transport and distribution hub of the region and one of the country’s few genuinely bilingual cities, sitting on a river with a tidal bore that reverses its flow twice a day. It has grown steadily while much of the region has not.

Distribution and call-centre work brings people in on contracts, and the city’s growth means households are being set up here more often than they are being cleared — which makes it a better place to sell than the regional average.

On white goods, ask to see a full cycle run rather than just a power-on. Appliances change hands frequently in this city and ten minutes settles most questions for good.

Moncton, in New Brunswick, has around 80,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Saint John, Fredericton and Toronto are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Handing it over in Moncton

Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.

What antiques are worth

What lifts the price

  • Documented makers, marks and provenance
  • Original surfaces and untouched patina

What pulls it down

  • Over-restoration, which removes original surface
  • Damage that requires specialist restoration

Working out what yours is worth

  • Photograph every mark, stamp and label you can find
  • Note the dimensions, materials and any repairs

Getting it ready

  • Measure the piece and note the materials, and look for signs of age such as hand-cut joints or irregular wear.
  • Do not polish, strip or repair anything. Original surface and patina are much of what a collector is paying for.

Photograph

  • The whole piece from a three-quarter angle in daylight
  • The construction detail — joints, screws, underside — that indicates age

Put in the description

  • Approximate period or date, and what that estimate is based on
  • Any maker’s marks, stamps, labels or signatures, transcribed

Fragile and often heavy. Pack generously and photograph the item before sealing. For larger pieces, collection is usual and lets the buyer inspect properly.

Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
