Selling graphic novels in Siliguri
Siliguri is the gateway to the northeast and the hill stations, a tea and transit city with heavy monsoon rainfall. It serves a wide surrounding region and trade here is unusually varied for the city’s size.
Trade and transport move households steadily, and the city’s role as a regional gateway brings people through constantly. Rainfall is heavy for months at a time and damp is the first thing to ask about.
The city is a transport hub and the main routes are busy with through traffic for much of the day. Collection is straightforward once off the main corridors.
Rainfall here is heavy for months. Ask where anything electrical or upholstered was stored, and check the underside and back for mould rather than the visible surfaces.
