Selling gold earrings in Alice Springs
Alice Springs sits almost exactly in the centre of the continent, hundreds of kilometres from anywhere, with genuine desert extremes: very hot days, cold nights and almost no rain. It serves an enormous remote area and runs substantially on tourism to the rock and the ranges.
Tourism and government contracts both rotate people through on fixed terms, and they sell up rather than freight things home. Vehicle and camping equipment turns over constantly for exactly the same reason.
Ask whether the item has been out on the tracks. Corrugated dirt roads shake things apart in a way sealed-road use never does, and it shows up in mounts, brackets and fastenings rather than in the bodywork.
Alice Springs, in Northern Territory, has around 26,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Darwin, Sydney and Melbourne are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Alice Springs

Are they hallmarked?
Photograph the mark. Hallmarks on earrings are very small, so use macro mode rather than describing them from memory.
