Used microwaves in Mildura typically sell for A$38 to A$170 (about $27 to $120). Microwaves are cheap, plentiful and sold on cleanliness — but the one thing a buyer genuinely needs to know is whether the door and seal are undamaged.
Selling a microwave in Mildura
Mildura sits on the Murray in the dry north-west corner of the state and exists because of irrigation: citrus, grapes and almonds grow here on water that is piped and channelled in. It is hot, flat and a long way from anywhere, and the river is the centre of local life.
Driving is the only realistic option and the town is easy to move around. Summer heat here is severe, so agreeing an early or late time in the hotter months is sensible for both of you.
Sun and heat are what kill things here. Check plastics, rubber and upholstery on anything that lived outdoors, and expect brittleness even on items only a couple of summers old.
Mildura, in Victoria, has around 55,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Melbourne, Geelong and Ballarat are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Mildura
Australia is a pre-launch market, so it is worth saying what a seller here should expect when it does open. Distance dominates everything: interstate parcels cost several times a metro delivery, and bulky items effectively only sell within a city. Most trade concentrates in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, and buyers in those cities expect to collect rather than wait. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, so listings that follow UK or US timing arrive exactly half a year out of step — warm weather items want September, not March, and winter gear moves from around May.

Put in the description
- Wattage, internal capacity in litres and external dimensions
- Whether the turntable, roller ring and any accessories are included
Postable but bulky and easily damaged, so a well-padded box and a taped door are essential. Local collection is usually the sensible route at this price point.
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.
