Used caps in Exeter typically sell for £6 to £35 (about $8 to $47). Caps are collected at the branded end, and the brim and crown shape matter more than general condition.
Selling a cap in Exeter
Exeter has a cathedral with the longest uninterrupted medieval vaulted ceiling anywhere, a university that dominates the north of the city and a quayside on the Exe that is the centre of local outdoor life. It is the regional capital for the south-west peninsula.
The university is large relative to the city and clears student housing every June, which is the dominant cycle. Outdoor and water equipment moves constantly given the moors and the coast either side.
On outdoor and water gear, ask its age and how it was stored. Anything load-bearing has a service life regardless of how it looks, and honest sellers here will tell you without being asked.
Exeter, in England, has around 130,000 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.
Handing it over in Exeter
The UK has the deepest second-hand habit of any of our markets — charity shops, car boot sales and online resale have been mainstream here for decades, so buyers arrive already comfortable with used goods and already know roughly what things are worth.

Common questions
Where can I sell a cap in Exeter?
List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. The quayside and the cathedral green are the landmarks everyone uses. The city is built on a hill above the river, so ask about steps for anything heavy; the centre itself has extensive pedestrian zones.
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.
