Checking a second-hand price
As mint-condition guidance, treat CAD 295 as a fair asking price — that is 80% of CAD 369, the last new price we recorded, on 2026-09-27. It is calculated from our own tracking, not observed second-hand market data, so treat it as a sanity check rather than a quote.
Found it second-hand? Paste the listing price into the calculator to score it against today's market before you buy — that is exactly the case this tool is built for.
