Selling militaria in Laval
Laval is a large suburban city immediately north of Montreal, with family housing, high car ownership and a predominantly French-speaking population. Household goods and children’s equipment make up most of what moves.
The July moving date that dominates Montreal reaches here too, though less intensely. Family households upgrading and downsizing produce a steadier supply through the rest of the year.
Suburban and built for driving, with generous parking, so collection is easier here than across the river in Montreal. Crossing to the island at peak times is the only real delay.
Laval, in Quebec, has around 440,000 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. Montreal, Quebec City and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Laval
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 militaria is worth
What lifts the price
- Original medals with correct naming and ribbons
- Insignia and badges with period construction
What pulls it down
- Reproductions sold as period originals
- Renamed or re-ribboned medals
Working out what yours is worth
- Photograph any naming, stamps or maker marks
- Confirm the item may lawfully be sold and posted
Getting it ready
- Identify exactly what the item is. Deactivated firearms, edged weapons, ordnance and certain insignia are all regulated differently and some cannot be sold or posted at all.
- Do not clean, polish or re-blue anything. Original finish and honest patina are most of the value to a collector.
Photograph
- The item whole, on a plain background, in even light
- Any deactivation certificate or paperwork
Put in the description
- What the item is, its nation of origin and period
- Whether original, a period reproduction, or a modern copy
Item, nation, period and markings: “WWI British Officer’s Compass, Marked 1917”. Collectors search by nation, conflict and unit. State plainly if a piece is a reproduction; the reproduction market is legitimate and honest labelling is what keeps it that way.
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.
