Selling a varsity jacket in Bundaberg
Seasonal harvest work brings people in and out through the year, and households set up cheaply for a season are cleared just as quickly. Flood recovery also puts a great deal of replaced household equipment onto the market at once.
The city is flat and driving is easy, so collection is straightforward. For anything that has been stored at ground level near the river, it is entirely normal here to ask how it came through the last flood, and sellers expect the question.
Ask directly whether the item has ever been in floodwater. This town has flooded seriously more than once and flood-damaged motors and upholstery can look sound for months before they fail. Sellers here expect the question.
