Used model kits in Ajax typically sell for C$15 to C$150 (about $11 to $110). Model kits are worth what their completeness says they are worth, and the crucial distinction is one word: sealed, started, or built.
Selling model kits in Ajax
Ajax was built during the Second World War around a munitions plant and named after a warship, which is why its street names run to naval history. It is now a lakeshore commuter town with a diverse and relatively young population and a long waterfront trail.
Young families dominate here, so children’s equipment moves fast and repeatedly as it is outgrown. Commuter households also relocate for work more often than settled suburbs do.
The commuter rail station and the waterfront are the easy meeting points. Driving is straightforward everywhere in town and parking is rarely a problem outside the summer waterfront peak.
Ask whether the item has been near the lake air over a winter. Salt from winter road treatment plus lake damp is hard on metal fittings, and it works from the underside where nobody photographs.

Steady year-round with a lift before Christmas. Out-of-production kits from established manufacturers sell within days when correctly titled; current-production kits compete with retail and move slower.
