Selling a classical guitar in Udaipur
Udaipur is built around a series of lakes with palaces on and beside them, and it is one of the country’s best-known destinations for both tourism and weddings. Marble processing and handicrafts are substantial local industries alongside the visitor economy.
Hotels and guesthouses replace furnishings on a commercial cycle here far more than in ordinary cities, and the wedding trade means occasion clothing is bought, worn once and sold on in genuine volume.
The old city around the lakes is narrow and largely unsuitable for vehicles, so agree a landmark outside it for anything large. The newer parts of the city are straightforward to drive in.
Udaipur, in Rajasthan, has around 460,000 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. Jaipur, Jodhpur and Kota are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Udaipur
