Used cross trainers in Waterloo typically sell for C$130 to C$660 (about $94 to $470). Cross trainers fail to sell on access, not price — they are heavy, rarely fold, and buyers cannot picture getting one out of your house.
Selling a cross trainer in Waterloo
Co-op terms are the defining rhythm here: students move in and out several times a year rather than annually, so desks, monitors and bikes come onto the market on a cycle measured in months. Prices drop sharply in the last week of a term.
The light rail line connects the campuses to both downtowns and is the easiest way to handle a small handover. Student housing near the universities is dense, so agree a building entrance rather than a street.
In the last week of a co-op term, look at the item in person if you can. A great deal changes hands very fast here at that point, and speed is exactly when the obvious check gets skipped.
Waterloo, in Ontario, has around 125,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Collection only, and access is the whole negotiation. State the floor, the stairs and whether you can help lift. Being honest loses you some enquiries and saves many wasted appointments.
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.
