Selling boots in Purnia
Crop payments arrive seasonally and household upgrades follow them. Out-migration for work in other states means houses are often cleared completely rather than a few items sold.
The market area and the station are the two landmarks everyone knows. Goods traffic is heavy on trading days, so allow more time than the distance suggests.
On goods from a household that is relocating out of state, ask when they are leaving. A fixed departure date tells you how much room there is on price, and both sides do better for the question.
Purnia, in Bihar, has around 280,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Patna, Gaya and Muzaffarpur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Purnia

What boots are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised makers with resoling services available
- Original laces, box and any dust bags
What pulls it down
- Cemented soles that cannot be replaced
- Cracked leather across the flex point
Working out what yours is worth
- Look at the sole edge for a welt stitch line
- Flex the vamp and check for cracking
Getting it ready
- Clean and condition the leather. Boots respond visibly to a wipe and a coat of polish, and it costs almost nothing.
- Check the heel wear, the sole tread and the insole, and photograph the size stamp inside or on the sole.
Photograph
- Both boots side on, upright, on a plain surface
- The soles, showing tread, heel wear and whether there is a stitched welt
Put in the description
- Brand, model and size with the sizing system stated
- Leather or synthetic, and whether the sole is welted or cemented
Heavier than shoes so postage costs a little more, but still straightforward. Wrap each boot separately and check the parcel weight before quoting the buyer a postage price.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
