I'm looking for a second hand down jacket suitable for normal Vancouver area winters... to use as my primary warm layer for winter camping, ski touring, etc.

One thing you need to be particularly mindful of down jackets in this type of climate, is the need for a water repellant fabric on the jacket like a DWR coating. A wet down jacket is a useless down jacket.
