Used skate shoes in Guelph typically sell for C$28 to C$105 (about $20 to $74). Skate shoes are built to be destroyed, so genuinely lightly worn pairs are scarcer than they look.
Selling skate shoes in Guelph
Guelph is a university city best known for agriculture and veterinary science, built in limestone and laid out on a radial plan that is unusual for the country. It has a strong local food and market culture and consistently low unemployment.
The academic year governs the supply. Student housing empties in April and refills in September, and the April clear-out is when desks, bookshelves and bikes appear in volume.
The downtown is compact and walkable and the station sits in the middle of it, which makes small handovers easy. Student housing near the campus is dense and parking there is genuinely difficult, so agree a plan for anything large.
Student furniture has usually had a hard few years even when it photographs well. Check the joints on anything wooden and sit on anything upholstered before you commit to a price.
Handing it over in Guelph
Two practical things shape a Canadian sale. Interprovincial shipping costs can exceed the value of a mid-priced item, which is why so much trade here is collection-only. And winter genuinely interrupts handovers in much of the country, so agree a window rather than a fixed day between December and March.

Brand and model, then colourway: “Vans Old Skool Skate Shoes, UK 9, Black White” or “Nike SB Dunk Low, EU 43”. Colourway names are how this market searches, so use the official one if you know it. Say deadstock only if they are genuinely unworn.
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.

List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. The downtown is compact and walkable and the station sits in the middle of it, which makes small handovers easy. Student housing near the campus is dense and parking there is genuinely difficult, so agree a plan for anything large.
Are they deadstock?
Only say yes if they have never been worn outdoors and you still have the box. It is a term with a precise meaning in this market and misusing it ends the sale.
