Used suitcases in Brantford typically sell for C$47 to C$225 (about $34 to $160). Single suitcases sell steadily because people replace them one at a time, and wheel condition drives the price.
Selling a suitcase in Brantford
Brantford sits on the Grand River and is where the telephone was first developed, with a manufacturing history that has been rebuilding around a downtown university campus. It is a working city rather than a commuter one, though it is close enough to the larger centres to draw people priced out of them.
Manufacturing employment and a growing student presence both feed the market. Housing here is cheaper than the cities nearby, so people arriving are often furnishing a first home rather than replacing a second one.
On tools, ask whether they were used in a trade or at home. Trade tools here are often better made and better maintained, but they have done far more hours than the same model from a garage.
Brantford, in Ontario, has around 100,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Brantford
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.

How much does it weigh empty?
Weigh it. On a checked bag every kilogram of case is a kilogram less of luggage, and frequent flyers ask specifically.
