Selling a bomber jacket in Thiruvananthapuram
Thiruvananthapuram is Kerala’s capital, with a large technology park, exceptionally high literacy and a humid coastal climate. Books and computing equipment both have unusually strong local markets.
Technology employment moves professionals steadily, and the strong reading culture keeps books circulating in real volume. Humidity is high year-round and is hard on paper and electronics alike.
Humidity is constant. On books check for foxing and on electronics ask about storage, because both suffer here in ways that are not visible until they matter.
Thiruvananthapuram, in Kerala, 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. Kochi, Kozhikode and Kollam are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Is the lining intact?
Turn it inside out and check under the arms. Satin linings split there and it is worth showing rather than hiding.
