Used smart TVs in Mackay typically sell for A$170 to A$860 (about $120 to $605). A smart TV is bought on screen size and panel condition, but the question that decides a used one is whether the apps still work — because manufacturers drop support long before the screen fails.
Selling a smart TV in Mackay
Mackay is a sugar town that became a mining service town, sitting between the cane fields and the coal basin inland. A large part of the working population is on rotation rather than resident full time, and that shapes both what people buy and how quickly they sell it again.
Mining rosters govern the supply. People set up a household for a contract and clear it when the contract ends, and downturns in the basin put a great deal onto the market at once rather than gradually.
On tools bought for mine work, ask whether they were used on site or at home. Site tools earn their keep and are often better maintained, but they have also done far more hours than the same model from a garage.
Mackay, in Queensland, has around 85,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Collection only in practice. Screens are fragile, couriers routinely exclude them from damage cover, and buyers want to see it powered on first anyway.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.

Common questions
Where can I sell a smart TV in Mackay?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. Everything is done by vehicle and utes are common, which makes collecting something large easier here than in most places. Rotation schedules mean a seller may only be in town on certain weeks, so agree the window early rather than assuming flexibility.
Any marks on the screen?
Photograph plain white and plain black full-screen images. That is the only evidence buyers trust.
