Buying toys & games in Charlottetown

Charlottetown is the smallest provincial capital, on an island whose economy runs on agriculture, fishing and a summer tourist season that transforms the place. It is where the country’s founding conference was held, and the historic core is compact and intact.

Toys are bulky for their value and often sold in bundles, which makes posting them awkward and the local market the natural one. A buyer can also see immediately whether a set is complete, which is the question that decides the price.

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 Charlottetown

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.

Everything is within a few minutes of everything else, which makes this one of the easiest places in the country to arrange a handover. The historic streets are narrow, so check access for anything large.

The summer season brings a large temporary workforce that furnishes and clears accommodation within months, and seasonal tourism housing is refurnished regularly. Winter is quiet by comparison.

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.
