Selling a cat tree in Calgary
Calgary is an energy city with high incomes, cold winters and immediate access to the mountains. Ski and camping equipment circulate constantly, and the boom-and-bust rhythm of the industry shows up directly in what comes onto the market.
Energy employment moves households in and out in waves rather than steadily, and a downturn puts a great deal of good equipment onto the market at once. Outdoor gear follows a sharp seasonal cycle on top of that.
On ski bindings, ask the age and whether a shop will still adjust and test them. Older bindings are frequently past the indemnified list, which quietly makes them worth much less than they look.
Calgary, in Alberta, has around 1.3 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Edmonton, Red Deer and Lethbridge are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Is it stable for a big cat?
