Used snowboards in Calgary typically sell for C$115 to C$660 (about $81 to $470). Snowboards sell on length, flex and base condition, and the practical question is whether the bindings are included and what boot size they fit.
Selling a snowboard in Calgary
Calgary is an energy city with high incomes, cold winters and immediate access to the mountains. Ski and camping equipment circulate constantly, and the boom-and-bust rhythm of the industry shows up directly in what comes onto the market.
Energy employment moves households in and out in waves rather than steadily, and a downturn puts a great deal of good equipment onto the market at once. Outdoor gear follows a sharp seasonal cycle on top of that.
The city is easy to drive and parking is generous, so collecting large items is straightforward for most of the year. Between December and March, weather rather than logistics is the limiting factor.
On ski bindings, ask the age and whether a shop will still adjust and test them. Older bindings are frequently past the indemnified list, which quietly makes them worth much less than they look.
Handing it over in Calgary
Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.

Getting it ready
