Used surfboards in Miami typically sell for $110 to $605. Boards are priced on dings and water ingress, because a board that has taken on water is heavier and never quite the same.
Selling a surfboard in Miami
Miami is an international city with a highly mobile population and a hot, humid, salty climate. Boats and water equipment have a deep market, and humidity is the first thing to ask about for anything upholstered or electronic.
International arrivals and departures keep furnished apartments turning over constantly. Hurricane season is a real consideration, and for anything electrical it is fair to ask whether it has been through a storm.
Traffic and the causeways determine how long a collection takes far more than the distance does. Parking in the denser areas is difficult and often paid, so agree a specific spot.
Ask whether the item has been through a storm or a power failure. Humidity, salt and surge are all hard on electronics here, and a seller who has owned it through a season will know.
Miami, in Florida, has around 450,000 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. Jacksonville, Tampa and Orlando are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Miami
The US resale market is enormous and highly local — most transactions still happen between people within driving distance of each other, and buyers expect to collect rather than wait for a courier.

Collection is usual. Posting needs a board bag and a length surcharge, and transit damage on a surfboard is common enough that most sellers avoid it.
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.
