Selling a varsity jacket in Fredericton
Fredericton is the provincial capital, a university and government town on the river with a good deal of preserved architecture and a strong local arts and craft scene. It is small, walkable and dominated by two institutions rather than an industry.
The academic year sets the rhythm: student housing empties in April and refills in September. Government postings move households on a separate and slower cycle.
The downtown is compact and walkable and the river trail system is genuinely useful. Driving and parking are both easy, so anything large is straightforward.
On anything sold in the April clear-out, see it in person if you can. The student market empties in a few days and that speed is exactly when a quick look would have paid for itself.
Fredericton, in New Brunswick, has around 65,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Moncton, Saint John and Toronto are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
