Used high chairs in Brisbane typically sell for A$38 to A$170 (about $27 to $120). High chairs are cheap new at the budget end, so second-hand value concentrates in the designs that grow with the child.
Selling a high chair in Brisbane
Brisbane is subtropical, and that genuinely determines what survives second hand here. Humidity is hard on anything upholstered, wooden or electronic that has been stored badly, and buyers who have lived here a while will ask where an item was kept before they ask anything else.
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.
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.

What high chairs are worth
What lifts the price
- Removable, dishwasher-safe trays and washable covers
- Complete with harness, tray and footrest
What pulls it down
- Missing harnesses, which are a safety requirement
- Basic plastic chairs, which sell for very little
Working out what yours is worth
- Confirm the harness is complete and fastens properly
- Deep clean the tray and seat before photographing
Getting it ready
- Strip it completely and wash the tray, seat pad and every crevice. Dried food in the seams is what makes buyers walk away.
- Test the folding mechanism and every height and recline adjustment, and check the locking catches engage firmly.
Photograph
- The harness laid out, showing all straps and the buckle
- The tray removed and the seat, clean, from above
Put in the description
- Whether the harness is five-point and complete
- Whether it folds, and the folded and assembled footprint
Folding models fit in a car easily; solid wooden chairs need a boot. Give the folded dimensions, and hand over any instruction manual, which parents genuinely use for reassembly.
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 high chair 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.
What age is it for?
Give the manufacturer’s stated range, including whether it reclines for younger babies or converts for older children. Parents are buying for a specific stage.
