Tools & Hardware Liquidation Pallets Canada — what they sell for
We sell Tools & Hardware liquidation stock by public auction from our warehouse in Kitchener, Ontario, and ship it anywhere in Canada. This page gives you the two numbers that actually decide whether a lot is worth buying: what this category really sells for, and what it really costs to get it to your city. Both are measured, not estimated.
What tools and hardware stock sells for at auction
Across 275 completed lots, the average item carried a retail price of $96 and sold for $29. That is a recovery of 29.9% of retail. The highest single result in the category was $285.
Typical contents: cordless drills and impact drivers, hand tools, socket and wrench sets, saws, tool storage and workshop hardware. Condition is mixed and stated on every lot — retail overstock, shelf pulls, open-box and customer returns.
What it costs to ship tools and hardware to your city
Freight is a fixed cost per box, so it takes a different bite out of every category. A typical 17kg box of tools and hardware stock is worth around $174 at measured recovery rates. Against that, shipping ranges from $27.73 to Guelph (16% of the box value) up to $63.38 to St. John's (36%).
On that basis 47 of the 47 cities below are workable for this category by mail. For the rest, collection or a consolidated freight run makes far more sense than per-box shipping.

Working out whether a lot is worth it
We do not publish profit projections, because we cannot see what you will pay, what condition your lot arrives in, or what you can sell it for. What we can give you is the arithmetic: 29.9% average recovery on tools and hardware, your freight cost from the table above, and whatever you actually bid. If you already hold a manifest — from us or from any other supplier — the Manifest Appraiser will price it line by line against our completed auction results.
How buying works
Everything is sold by public auction, twice a week. There is no fixed price: bidders set it, which is why the same item sells for different amounts week to week. You can bid from anywhere in Canada.

Retail figures are the manufacturer or major-retailer list price recorded at the time of sale, shown for comparison only — they are not a former AmazeDeals price. Typical box value is an illustration built from measured category averages, not a promise about any particular lot. AmazeDeals is an auction: bidders set the price, results vary week to week, and past results are not a promise of future prices.
