Used blazers in Hobart typically sell for A$29 to A$135 (about $20 to $94). Blazers are judged on construction and shoulder fit, because those are the parts a buyer cannot alter cheaply.
Selling a blazer in Hobart
Hobart is the country’s second-oldest city and the coldest of its capitals, with a great deal of genuinely old housing stock still standing below the mountain. It is the departure point for Antarctic expeditions and has a strong arts and market culture, and both of those put unusual things into circulation.
Antarctic and research programmes rotate people through on fixed contracts, and the colonial-era housing stock turns over with genuinely old contents. Winter here is long and cold, so warm clothing and heating-adjacent goods move seasonally.
The city is built on hills and the older streets are narrow and steep, so access matters more here than the short distances suggest. The waterfront and the centre are the easy places to meet; anything up the slope needs a conversation about parking.
Hobart, in Tasmania, has around 250,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Launceston, Devonport and Sydney are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Hobart
Australia’s second-hand market is strongly local and strongly seasonal, with most activity concentrated in the eastern capitals and buyers who expect to collect. Around Battery Point, North Hobart and Sandy Bay are where this sort of thing tends to change hands.

Getting it ready
