Selling denim shorts in Pune
Pune is a university city and an automotive and technology centre, with one of the largest student populations in the country and a noticeably pleasant climate. Study furniture, two-wheelers and laptops are the things that reliably move.
The academic year governs a great deal of the turnover, with student accommodation emptying and refilling on a fixed cycle. Technology employment adds a second, less seasonal flow on top of it.
On a used two-wheeler, ask for the registration papers and check the engine and chassis numbers match them before any money moves. It is routine here and a seller who hesitates is telling you something.
Pune, in Maharashtra, has around 3.1 million people, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. Mumbai, Nagpur and Thane are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Pune
Negotiation is normal and expected rather than a sign of a difficult buyer. Price with a little room in it and say whether the price is firm.

Very light and cheap to post. Roll rather than fold to keep the parcel small, and weigh it first — denim is heavier than it looks and underquoting postage comes straight out of what you keep.
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.
