Selling a kurta in Burnaby
Burnaby sits directly east of the largest city in the province and contains a major university on a mountain, one of the largest shopping centres in the country and a great deal of film production. It is dense, diverse and connected by rapid transit rather than suburban in any traditional sense.
The university clears student housing every spring, and the rental market across the region is expensive enough that people move frequently. Tower living also means furniture is sold rather than stored when it no longer fits.
The rapid transit line runs through the city and the stations are the natural meeting points for anything portable. Tower housing is common, so confirm lift access and loading-bay booking before agreeing to collect furniture.
In tower housing, confirm lift access and whether the building requires a loading bay to be booked. Many buildings here do, and turning up without one wastes an afternoon for both of you.
Burnaby, in British Columbia, has around 250,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Vancouver, Surrey and Richmond are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Very light and folds small, so cheap to post anywhere, and international buyers are common for good cotton and handloom pieces. Fold with tissue if there is delicate neckline embroidery so the threads do not catch.
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.
