Selling an angle grinder in Cambridge
Terms end three times a year and rooms clear each time, so the cycle is faster than a normal academic year. The technology cluster moves researchers and staff on contracts, and many leave the country entirely, clearing everything.
Cycling is the default and the centre has extensive vehicle restrictions, so arrange anything large outside it. Bikes change hands here constantly and the station and the market square are the usual meeting points.
On a used bike, ask about the frame and the bottom bracket rather than the paint. Bikes here do genuine daily mileage in all weather, and the wear is in the bearings rather than the finish.
Cambridge, in England, has around 145,000 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, disc size and power: “Bosch 115mm Angle Grinder, 900W, with Guard and Handle”. Disc diameter is the search — 115mm, 125mm and 230mm are quite different tools. Say whether the guard and side handle are present, because a grinder missing either is worth much less.
