Madurai, in Tamil Nadu, has around 1.5 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Chennai, Coimbatore and Tiruchirappalli are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Madurai
