Selling comic books in Raipur
Raipur is the commercial and administrative centre of a heavily industrial state, with steel and agriculture dominating the wider economy. The market here is practical and price-led.
Industrial and administrative employment move households steadily rather than seasonally. Summer heat is severe and cooling equipment turns over on a sharp annual cycle.
The city is comparatively easy to drive with reasonable parking, so collection is uncomplicated. Industrial areas are some distance from the residential centre.
On anything with a motor or filter, check for dust ingress. The industrial environment here is dusty and it shortens the life of equipment that has been stored uncovered.
Raipur, in Chhattisgarh, has around 1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Bhilai, Bilaspur and Korba are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
