Used e-readers in Harrogate typically sell for £25 to £90 (about $34 to $120). E-readers sell on screen size, front light and which ecosystem they are tied to, so name the brand and model precisely rather than listing it generically.
Selling an e-reader in Harrogate
Harrogate is a Victorian spa town with formal gardens, a conference and exhibition business that fills its hotels, and a tea room known nationally. It is affluent, well preserved and hosts a major flower show twice a year.
Affluence means goods are replaced rather than worn out, and the Victorian housing stock brings genuinely good older furniture onto the market. Downsizing is a steady source.
The town is compact and the Stray is the landmark everyone uses. Conference and show weeks fill the town completely, so check what is on before arranging anything that needs a vehicle.
Check what is on before arranging anything. Conference and flower show weeks fill the town completely and parking near the centre becomes impossible for days at a time.
Harrogate, in England, has around 75,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. London, Birmingham and Leeds are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Brand, model and features: “Kobo Clara HD E-Reader, 6in, Front Light, 8GB”. Brand matters because each is tied to its own store and format support. Say whether it takes EPUB, which is a genuine differentiator for buyers with existing libraries.
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.
