Used BMX bikes in Brisbane typically sell for A$96 to A$480 (about $67 to $335). BMX values are driven by brand and component spec, and the market is knowledgeable enough that vague listings do badly.
Selling a BMX bike in Brisbane
The city has grown quickly through interstate migration, and people arriving from Sydney and Melbourne routinely sell up rather than freight everything north. That produces a steady supply of good furniture at sensible prices.
The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Ask where the item was stored before anything else. Humidity here is hard on upholstery, timber and electronics alike, and something kept in an unventilated garage can be well past saving while still looking fine.
Brisbane, in Queensland, has around 2.6 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Townsville are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Collection is easiest. If posting, it needs a proper bike box with the bars, pedals and wheel removed — and quote the courier before agreeing a price, because bike carriage is expensive.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell a BMX bike in Brisbane?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Has the frame ever cracked or been welded?
Inspect around the head tube and dropouts and disclose any repair. A cracked BMX frame fails suddenly under load and is not something to leave for the buyer to find.
