Second-hand shoes & footwear in Quebec City typically sells for C$8 to C$225 (about $5 to $160). Colourways made only once keep their money long after the common ones have settled down, while a model still on sale new sets a ceiling the used pair will not pass. Very large and very small fittings go for more simply because far fewer were ever made.

Buying shoes & footwear in Quebec City
Quebec City is French-speaking, historic and has severe winters with heavy snowfall. The old quarters have narrow streets and steep access, and the local market runs largely in French, which is worth knowing before you list.
Posting footwear costs more than most sellers expect, and a wrong fit turns into a return that leaves both sides out of pocket. Handing a pair over face to face removes that risk completely, which is why so much of this trade stays close to home.
What to check in person
Put both on rather than just one. Feet are rarely an identical pair, and something that suits the left can pinch the right, which is very often the real reason it is being sold. Look along the toe for deep creasing, because that never comes out.
Collecting it in Quebec City
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
Access in the older parts of the city is genuinely awkward for a vehicle, and snow makes it harder for several months. A listing written in French will reach considerably more local buyers than one written only in English.
Selling your shoes & footwear in Quebec City free
Winter sports equipment follows a sharp seasonal cycle, appearing in spring and selling through autumn. Household turnover is slower than in the larger Canadian cities because more people stay put.
Photograph the soles as well as the uppers, because that is the first thing a buyer asks for and the request costs you a day if it is missing. Say whether the original box is included and let the buyer try them on when they arrive. Boots move from the first cold week; trainers and lighter shoes move steadily all year.
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.
