Selling a cello in Junagadh
Junagadh sits at the foot of the Girnar hills with a fort of considerable antiquity, and it is the gateway to the forest that holds the last wild population of Asiatic lions. Groundnut and agricultural trade underpin the local economy.
The old city below the fort is dense with narrow lanes, so agree a main-road landmark for anything large. The newer parts of town are straightforward to drive in.
In the old city below the fort, confirm how close a vehicle can get before agreeing a price. Those lanes are narrow and the carry is often longer than either side expects.
Junagadh, in Gujarat, has around 320,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Ahmedabad, Surat and Vadodara are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Junagadh
Two practical things shape a sale here. Courier serviceability varies by PIN code rather than by city, so check the buyer’s code before promising delivery. And packaging matters more than most sellers expect on long domestic routes — a poorly wrapped parcel arriving damaged is the commonest cause of a dispute.

- The cello front on, full length, upright
- The bow, case or bag, and any crack or open seam
Put in the description
- Size as a fraction
- Whether a bow, case, rosin and stand are included
Very large and effectively collection only unless you can source a proper shipping case. Say whether it fits in a car and whether you can help.
