Used record players in Kamloops typically sell for C$75 to C$415 (about $54 to $295). Record players sell on whether the stylus is usable and the speed is accurate, and buyers assume neither works until you say otherwise.
Selling a record player in Kamloops
Kamloops sits where two rivers meet in dry, open interior country that is close to semi-desert, and it is a rail and highway hub for the whole region. It calls itself the tournament capital for the volume of sport it hosts, and it has a university and a real ranching hinterland.
The university clears student housing each spring, and outdoor equipment turns over constantly because the riding, hunting and ski seasons here are all genuinely used rather than aspirational.
The city is spread across river valleys and hillsides, so agree the neighbourhood rather than a general area. Driving is essential and the hills mean access is worth checking for anything heavy.
Kamloops, in British Columbia, has around 100,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Vancouver, Surrey and Burnaby are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Kamloops
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.

What record players are worth
What lifts the price
- A working motor running at correct, stable speed
- An intact stylus and cartridge, or a well-regarded cartridge fitted
What pulls it down
- Perished drive belts causing slow or uneven speed
- All-in-one suitcase players, which sell for very little
Working out what yours is worth
- Run the platter and check the speed is steady
- Test both speeds and the tonearm return if fitted
Getting it ready
- Test both speeds with a strobe disc or a phone app, and confirm the platter turns evenly without wow.
- Check whether it has a built-in phono preamp, which decides what the buyer needs to connect it to.

Steady with a strong Christmas lift. Recognised brands with working cartridges sell within days; unbranded suitcase players sell slowly and cheaply.
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.
