Selling a cot bed in Armidale
Armidale is a university town on the New England tablelands, high enough that it gets frost through winter and occasional snow. The university dominates the local economy and the population turns over with the academic year in a way that is obvious on the ground.
Semesters govern everything. Share houses fill in February and empty in November, and the November clear-out is when desks, bookshelves and heaters come onto the market in volume and at their lowest prices.
On anything electrical bought at the end of semester, plug it in before money changes hands. A great deal moves fast in the November clear-out and it is worth the extra five minutes.
Armidale, in New South Wales, has around 25,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Armidale
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.

Put in the description
- Mattress size in centimetres, and whether a mattress is included

Dismantle it before collection and tape the fittings in a labelled bag to a rail. Include the instructions in the bag — it is a small courtesy buyers consistently mention in ratings.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell a cot bed in Armidale?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. The town is small and walkable in the centre, and almost everything else is a short drive. Winter mornings are genuinely cold, so agreeing a middle-of-the-day time in the colder months is sensible.
Does it come with the conversion parts?
Check carefully. Cot beds without their conversion rails are worth no more than a plain cot, and buyers ask specifically.
