Selling mom jeans in Seattle
Seattle pairs a large technology workforce with a serious outdoor culture and a genuinely wet climate. Waterproof clothing, hiking and paddling gear and computer equipment all have deep local markets, and rain protection is not a nicety here.
Technology hiring moves people in and out, and outdoor gear runs on its own upgrade cycle — equipment gets bought, used for a couple of seasons and passed on in good condition when someone moves up a level.
The city is hilly and the water divides it, so the bridge or the route matters more than the distance. Parking in the denser neighbourhoods is difficult, and a lot of handovers happen at park-and-ride lots for that reason.
Ask whether the item was stored anywhere damp. The climate is unforgiving on anything with fabric, foam or particle board, and mildew is very difficult to reverse once it has taken hold.
Seattle, in Washington, has around 750,000 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. Spokane, Tacoma and Vancouver are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Seattle
