Used caps in Jodhpur typically sell for ₹750 to ₹4,500 (about $8 to $47). Caps sell on brand and the state of the brim and sweatband, because those are what make an old cap look worn out.
Selling a cap in Jodhpur
Jodhpur sits on the edge of the desert and has a long-established trade in furniture, textiles and handicrafts, much of it made for export. Genuinely distinctive wooden and decorative pieces appear here far more often than elsewhere.
The export furniture trade means well-made wooden pieces circulate locally in a way they do not in most cities. Desert heat and dust are the two things to ask about for anything stored.
The old city inside the walls is narrow and difficult for vehicles, so anything large is collected from outside. The newer areas are open and easy to drive.
On wooden furniture, ask whether it is solid timber or veneered and check the joints. The export trade here produces both, and the difference in value is considerable.
Jodhpur, in Rajasthan, has around 1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Jaipur, Kota and Bikaner are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Jodhpur
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.

Is the brim still flat?
Say whether it has been curved. Some buyers specifically want a flat brim and a curved one cannot be undone cleanly.
