Used cricket bats in Hamilton typically sell for C$38 to C$285 (about $27 to $200). Bats are judged on the willow grade and whether the blade has been properly knocked in and maintained.
Selling a cricket bat in Hamilton
Hamilton has a steel and manufacturing history and has absorbed a great deal of movement out of Toronto in search of cheaper housing. Tools and workshop equipment have a genuine local market, and the older housing stock means full-size furniture fits.
The city sits on and below an escarpment, and which side of it someone is on is worth establishing before agreeing anything heavy. Driving and parking are otherwise easy compared with Toronto.
On used tools, ask whether they came from a trade or a home workshop. Trade tools are usually better maintained but have done far more work, and the price should reflect which you are buying.
Hamilton, in Ontario, has around 570,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

- Weight in pounds and ounces, and the size (Harrow, SH, LH)
Willow, weight and size: “Gray-Nicolls English Willow Cricket Bat, Grade 2, 2lb 9oz, SH”. English versus Kashmir willow is the biggest price factor and must be stated. Include the weight and size, since both are how players choose.
