Selling a cardigan in Gorakhpur
Gorakhpur is a railway and administrative city serving a large agricultural region, with a significant temple presence and a growing student population. The market is practical and driven by government and trade rather than industry.
Government postings and the student population move households on predictable cycles. The monsoon here is heavy and the region floods in places, which makes storage history a fair question.
The area around the railway station is congested and the rest of the city is easier. Most collection happens by two-wheeler, and summers are severe.
The region floods in places. For anything electrical or upholstered, ask plainly whether it has been in water — it is a normal question here and an honest seller will answer it.
Gorakhpur, in Uttar Pradesh, 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. Lucknow, Kanpur and Ghaziabad are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Put in the description
- Fibre composition and knit weight
- Pit-to-pit and body length laid flat
Light and cheap to post. Fold rather than hang so the shoulders do not stretch, and use a waterproof bag for natural fibres — wool and cashmere absorb any damp in transit and arrive smelling musty, which buyers notice immediately.
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.
