Selling a monitor in Cardiff
Cardiff is the Welsh capital and grew as the largest coal-exporting port in the world before rebuilding itself around government, broadcasting and a stadium that sits in the middle of the city. It has three universities and a bay redevelopment that changed the shape of the place entirely.
The centre is compact and the stadium is the landmark everyone navigates by. On match days the city centre is effectively closed to traffic, so check the fixture list before agreeing a time for anything that needs a vehicle.
Check the fixture list before agreeing to collect anything large. On a match day the centre is closed to traffic and a straightforward pickup becomes impossible for several hours.
Cardiff, in Wales, has around 365,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Swansea, Newport and Wrexham are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
