Used kettlebells in Edinburgh typically sell for £12 to £70 (about $16 to $94). Kettlebells barely wear out, so pricing is essentially by weight and buyers think in price per kilogram.
Selling a kettlebell in Edinburgh
Edinburgh is a university and finance city whose population swells enormously every August for the festival, and that single month does more to move second-hand goods here than any other part of the year. Outside it, the Old and New Town tenement stock means most people live in flats and buy furniture to fit them.
The Old Town is steep, cobbled and awkward for vehicles, with restricted access on several streets, so anything heavy needs a conversation about where a van can actually stop. Trams and buses cover the rest of the city and handle small handovers fine.
Check vehicle access before agreeing to collect anything heavy from the Old Town. Several streets are restricted or effectively impassable for a van, and the nearest legal stopping point can be a long carry.
Edinburgh, in Scotland, has around 530,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Glasgow, Aberdeen and Dundee are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Edinburgh
