Used heels in Yellowknife typically sell for C$23 to C$115 (about $16 to $81). Heels sell on brand and on the state of the tips and the heel covering — and honest measurement matters more here than in any other footwear, because there is no give at all.
Selling heels in Yellowknife
Yellowknife is the territorial capital on the shore of a very large lake, built first on gold and now on diamond mining, and it is one of the best places in the world to see the aurora. Winter roads across the ice are a normal part of how the region is supplied.
Mine rotations and government postings both move households on fixed cycles, and the cost of freighting anything in or out means people sell up locally rather than ship. Good cold-weather gear is genuinely valuable here and moves fast.
The town is compact and everything is a short drive. Extreme cold is the real constraint for several months of the year — vehicles are left running and outdoor handovers need to be brief, so agree somewhere you can both step inside.
On anything with a battery, seals or hydraulics, ask how it was stored through winter. Extreme cold here is a different order from the south, and it kills batteries and perishes rubber outright.

What heels are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised designer labels with a resale following
- Intact heel tips with no exposed metal
What pulls it down
- Scuffed heel stems and toe caps
- Stretched or creased vamps
Working out what yours is worth
- Look at the heel tips and note whether they need replacing
- Measure the heel height and state it
Getting it ready
- Check every heel tip. Worn-through tips exposing metal are both a defect and a floor hazard, and replacing them is inexpensive.
- Clean the soles and the insole. A soiled insole reads as worn far more strongly than the actual wear justifies.
