Used puffer jackets in Vancouver, British Columbia typically sell for C$38 to C$190 (about $27 to $135). Puffer jackets are bought on fill, and the difference between down and synthetic is most of the price — check the label before you write anything else.
Selling a puffer jacket in Vancouver
Vancouver is the most expensive city in the country and the mildest, which is an unusual combination. Apartments are small and outdoor recreation is available year-round, so compact furniture and outdoor gear are the two things that reliably move.
Housing costs move people frequently and the city attracts a highly mobile international population. Rain is constant enough that where something was stored is always worth asking about.
Traffic and the bridges determine how long any collection takes, far more than the distance does. Parking in the denser neighbourhoods is difficult, and most apartment buildings require the lift to be booked.
Ask where the item was kept. The climate is persistently damp, and fabric, foam and particle board all suffer badly in an unventilated garage or storage locker.
Handing it over in Vancouver
Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.

What puffer jackets are worth
What lifts the price
- Baffles intact with no leaking feathers
- Original stuff sack where supplied
What pulls it down
- Synthetic fills sold as down
- Compressed fill that no longer lofts after washing
Working out what yours is worth
- Shake it out and check whether the fill lofts evenly
- Check the composition label for down percentage and fill power
Getting it ready
- Read the inner label for the fill: down and feather percentages, or polyester wadding. This one detail sets the price band.
- Check every baffle for leaking feathers and look for small tears, which puffers get constantly and which are cheap to patch.

- Full front on a hanger, zipped, so the loft shows
- The inner composition label, legible
Put in the description
- Fill type and, for down, the fill power and down/feather ratio
- Pit-to-pit and length, laid flat
Put the fill in the title, because it is the search and the price driver: “The North Face 700 Fill Down Puffer Jacket, Black, Mens L”. Down fill power is a number buyers know. If it is synthetic, say so plainly rather than letting a buyer assume down and be disappointed.
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.
