Used tool sets in Coquitlam typically sell for C$38 to C$285 (about $27 to $200). Tool sets sell on completeness, so count everything against the case moulding before listing — a set with obvious gaps is worth far less than one you can show is complete.
Selling a tool set in Coquitlam
Coquitlam sits at the eastern end of the region where the valley narrows, with mountains directly behind it and a rapid transit extension that arrived only recently and changed how the city works. It is one of a cluster of three cities that function together.
The rapid transit stations are the easiest meeting points and have made small handovers far simpler here than they used to be. The city climbs towards the mountains, so for anything heavy confirm whether there are steps up to the door.
The city climbs towards the mountains and a great many homes have steps up to the door. Ask about the approach, not just the floor, before agreeing to collect anything heavy.
Coquitlam, in British Columbia, has around 150,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Vancouver, Surrey and Burnaby are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Coquitlam
