Selling a gaming headset in Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City sits in a valley between two mountain ranges beside a saline lake, laid out on an unusually generous grid centred on a temple square. World-class ski resorts are within an hour and the city hosted a winter olympics.
Ski and outdoor equipment turns over constantly and knowledgeably here because the mountains are used rather than admired. The universities clear student housing each spring, and technology employment moves households in.
The grid makes addresses genuinely easy to find and driving is straightforward. Winter inversions trap poor air in the valley for days, and canyon roads close in storms.
On ski gear, check the bindings and boot soles rather than the topsheet. Both have a service life regardless of appearance, and shops will refuse to mount bindings past a certain age.
Salt Lake City, in Utah, has around 200,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. New York, Los Angeles and Chicago are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
