Selling a gold ring in Patna
The examination calendar governs almost everything: students arrive, study for a year or two and leave, selling their books and furniture on the way out. Those windows are the best buying opportunities of the year.
The city is congested and the roads along the river are the main arteries, so timing matters more than distance. Most handovers are arranged at home or at a well-known landmark.
Books sold at the end of an examination cycle are excellent value but check for damp and for missing pages. Both are common in shared study accommodation and neither shows in a photograph.
Patna, in Bihar, has around 1.7 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Gaya, Muzaffarpur and Bihar Sharif are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Patna

Carat, type and size: “9ct Gold Signet Ring, Size N, 4.2g”. Carat and weight are the two numbers buyers use to sanity-check your price against scrap value, and including them signals that you know what you have. Ring size is essential — without it, most buyers will not enquire at all.
