Used tents in Mau typically sell for ₹1,150 to ₹13,000 (about $12 to $135). Tents look fine folded and fail in the field, so buyers care about waterproofing and poles far more than cosmetic condition.
Selling a tent in Mau
Mau is a weaving town, and its powerlooms and handlooms producing sarees and dress material are the reason the town exists at its current size. Almost every part of the local economy connects back to cloth in some way.
Cloth and clothing move constantly here because the town produces them, and household goods turn over with the fortunes of the loom trade, which has genuine good and bad years rather than steady growth.
The weaving neighbourhoods are dense and the lanes are narrow, so agree a main-road landmark for anything large. Loom work runs long hours, so an early or late meeting often suits sellers better than the middle of the day.
Mau, in Uttar Pradesh, has around 280,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Lucknow, Kanpur and Ghaziabad are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Mau
India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.

What tents are worth
What lifts the price
- Poles with no cracks and elastic still under tension
- Complete with pegs, guylines and inner
What pulls it down
- Delaminated or flaking waterproof coating
- Cracked poles and perished shock cord
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the flysheet coating for flaking on the inside
- Flex every pole section and check the shock cord tension
Getting it ready
- Count the poles and pegs against the manual, and check the guy lines are all present.
- Check the seams and the groundsheet for leaks, and make sure it is bone dry before packing — a damp tent grows mould in the bag.

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.
