Used rowing machines in Ajax typically sell for C$150 to C$850 (about $110 to $605). Rowing machines sell better than most gym equipment because they fold, but the buyer’s real question is the resistance type — air, water, magnetic and hydraulic are entirely different products.
Selling a rowing machine 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.
