Used Chromebooks in Hamilton typically sell for C$115 to C$470 (about $81 to $335). Chromebooks have a fixed expiry date built in, and a machine past it is worth very little regardless of condition.
Selling a Chromebook in Hamilton
Hamilton has a steel and manufacturing history and has absorbed a great deal of movement out of Toronto in search of cheaper housing. Tools and workshop equipment have a genuine local market, and the older housing stock means full-size furniture fits.
Arrivals from Toronto typically move from a condo to a house and buy furniture to fill it, while the industrial base keeps tools and equipment turning over independently of the housing market.
The city sits on and below an escarpment, and which side of it someone is on is worth establishing before agreeing anything heavy. Driving and parking are otherwise easy compared with Toronto.
On used tools, ask whether they came from a trade or a home workshop. Trade tools are usually better maintained but have done far more work, and the price should reflect which you are buying.
Hamilton, in Ontario, has around 570,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.

Brand, size and update date: “Acer Chromebook 314, 14in, 4GB/64GB, Updates to 2029”. Putting the auto-update expiry in the title is unusual and immediately credible — buyers who know Chromebooks look for it first.
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 Chromebook in Hamilton?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. The city sits on and below an escarpment, and which side of it someone is on is worth establishing before agreeing anything heavy. Driving and parking are otherwise easy compared with Toronto.
Have you removed your account?
Powerwash the device before listing and confirm. A Chromebook still tied to your Google account is a problem for the buyer.
