Selling coins in Tiruchirappalli
Tiruchirappalli is an engineering and education city built around a major heavy engineering plant, with a large student population and a very old temple district. Technical equipment and study materials both move well.
The engineering plant and the colleges both move people on fixed cycles, giving a clear annual rhythm. Heat is severe from March and shapes when people arrange to meet.
The city spreads between the temple areas and the industrial township, which are a genuine distance apart. Roads are reasonable and collection is straightforward.
On technical and engineering equipment, ask what it was used for and for how long. The local expertise is genuine and a specific question gets a specific answer.
Tiruchirappalli, in Tamil Nadu, has around 900,000 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. Chennai, Coimbatore and Madurai are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
