Used action figures in Ontario typically sell for $7 to $110. Figures are collected seriously, and the gap between a carded example and a loose one is enormous.
Selling action figures in Ontario
Ontario is a logistics and distribution centre in the inland region east of the coastal metropolis, with a growing airport and an enormous concentration of warehousing. It sits on the historic cross-country highway route.
Freight traffic sets the rhythm here, and the streets around the warehouses back up at shift changes in a way the map gives no warning of. Meeting near the outlet malls is the usual default because everyone knows where they are and there is always somewhere to park.
On equipment from warehouse use, ask whether it was used commercially. Warehouse hours are hard on anything with wheels or a motor and it does not show in a photograph.
Ontario, in California, has around 177,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Ontario
Distances are the real constraint. State plainly whether you will ship or collection only, because a buyer three states away will otherwise ask.

What action figures are worth
What lifts the price
- Carded figures still sealed in original packaging
- Vintage lines with established collector followings
What pulls it down
- Missing accessories, which are often valued separately
- Sun-faded plastic and yellowing
Working out what yours is worth
- Check every accessory against the original release
- Photograph joints and paint in daylight
Getting it ready
- Lay out every figure with its accessories and work out which pieces are missing. Say so; collectors always find out.
- Check the joints. Loose or floppy limbs are a genuine defect on articulated figures and buyers ask specifically.
Photograph
- The whole lot laid out together on a plain surface, so the buyer can count them
- Individual shots of the more valuable figures, front and back
Put in the description
- The line or franchise, and the character names
- Whether each figure is complete with its accessories, or loose and partial
Steady all year with a clear lift before Christmas. Sought-after lines sell within days when priced against recent completed sales; generic bundles take longer and do better as job lots.
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.
