Selling loafers in Gwalior
Gwalior is a historic fort city with a long musical tradition and a settled administrative economy. Instruments and traditional items have a real local audience, and household turnover is slower than in the industrial cities.
Government postings and the student population drive most of the movement. The dry climate is easier on stored goods than the coastal cities, though summer heat is severe.
The old city around the fort is congested while the newer areas are open and easy to drive. Establishing which of the two you are heading for saves time.
Gwalior, in Madhya Pradesh, has around 1.1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Indore, Bhopal and Jabalpur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Gwalior
Negotiation is normal and expected rather than a sign of a difficult buyer. Price with a little room in it and say whether the price is firm.
What loafers are worth
What lifts the price
- Welted or stitched construction that can be resoled
- Uppers with no cracking across the vamp
What pulls it down
- Cemented soles that cannot be replaced
- Stretched or collapsed backs
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the sole edge for a welt stitch line
- Flex the vamp looking for cracking
Getting it ready
- Look at the welt. A visible stitch line around the sole means the shoe can be resoled, and that is worth saying.
- Clean and polish the uppers, and check the heel for wear and the sole for thinning at the ball of the foot.
