Used surfboards in Montreal typically sell for C$150 to C$850 (about $110 to $605). Boards are priced on dings and water ingress, because a board that has taken on water is heavier and never quite the same.
Selling a surfboard in Montreal
Montreal has the most distinctive moving culture in the country: a very large share of leases end on the same day at the start of July, and for about a week the entire city changes address at once. The second-hand market is built around that single date.
The July moving week produces a concentration of second-hand furniture that has no real equivalent elsewhere in Canada. Prices in the days either side of it are the lowest of the year, and the choice is at its widest.
The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
Measure the outdoor staircase, not just the doorway. The spiral and half-turn stairs on many buildings here defeat sofas and mattresses that would fit anywhere else, and the seller may never have taken it out that way.
Montreal, in Quebec, has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Quebec City, Laval and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Montreal
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.

Common questions
Where can I sell a surfboard in Montreal?
List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
Are the fins included?
Say which and how many. Fins are expensive separately and their inclusion changes the price meaningfully.
