Used caps in Worthing typically sell for £6 to £35 (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 Worthing
Worthing is a Sussex seaside town with a Victorian pier, a long shingle beach and the South Downs immediately behind it. It has an older population than the county average and has become increasingly a commuter town for the city along the coast.
Downsizing and estate clearances supply a great deal of well-kept older furniture, and the growing commuter population brings younger households in who are furnishing rather than clearing.
The seafront and the station are the landmarks everyone uses and the town is flat and easy to move around. Seafront parking is difficult in summer and easy the rest of the year.
On furniture from an estate clearance, check the joints and any veneer rather than the polish. A great deal of what appears here is genuinely old and that is where age actually shows.
Worthing, in England, has around 110,000 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.
