Second-hand toys & games in Windsor typically sells for C$4 to C$755 (about $3 to $540). Retired and discontinued lines climb steadily once they leave the shops, and a sealed example can be worth a large multiple of one that has been played with. Anything still on sale new is held down by the shop price.
Buying toys & games in Windsor
Windsor sits directly across the river from a much larger American city and is the country’s automotive town, with assembly and tooling work that has run for generations. It is the southernmost city in the country, which makes its summers genuinely hot by Canadian standards.
Families pass these on within a few streets as children move past a stage, and much of it never reaches a wider audience at all. Supply arrives in waves after birthdays and Christmas, so being close by matters more than searching hard.
What to check in person
Count the pieces if a set claims to be complete, and check for the small parts that go missing first. Look for name labels and chew marks, test anything with a motor or a sound, and make sure batteries have not been left in to corrode.
Collecting it in Windsor
It needs a car boot rather than a bag, so agree somewhere you can actually stop for a few minutes. That is easier away from the centre than in it.
Driving is the norm and the city is flat and easy to move around. The riverfront is the obvious landmark; border traffic can back up the approaches to the crossings, so avoid arranging anything near them at peak times.

The automotive cycle moves this market as a whole rather than gradually — plant announcements change what is for sale within weeks. Tool and trade equipment is unusually good here because so much of the workforce is skilled.
Give the set number and the age range, since those are what buyers actually search for. Wash or wipe everything down beforehand and photograph it in daylight, because grubby plastic sells for a fraction of what clean plastic does. Builds from October to Christmas, then again in a quieter second-hand wave in January.
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.
