Used microwaves in Bhopal typically sell for ₹2,550 to ₹11,500 (about $27 to $120). Microwaves are cheap new, so second-hand values are low and the practical question is whether yours is worth the effort of listing.
Selling a microwave in Bhopal
Bhopal is a planned administrative city built around two large lakes, greener and less congested than most Indian cities of its size. Government employment dominates and the pace of household turnover is correspondingly measured.
The city is spread out but easy to drive with reasonable parking, so collecting furniture is uncomplicated. The old and new parts of the city are quite distinct and worth distinguishing when arranging a meeting.
On furniture from a government quarter, ask how many times it has been moved. Transfer households move furniture repeatedly and case pieces loosen a little with each one.
Bhopal, in Madhya Pradesh, has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Indore, Jabalpur and Gwalior are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.
What microwaves are worth
What lifts the price
- Clean interior with undamaged waveguide cover
- Larger capacities and higher wattage
What pulls it down
- Damaged or missing waveguide cover, which is a safety issue
- Missing turntable plate, which is size-specific
Working out what yours is worth
- Heat a cup of water and time it to confirm output
- Check the waveguide cover on the cavity wall is intact
Getting it ready
- Clean the interior thoroughly, including the roof and the waveguide cover, and wash the turntable and roller ring.
- Check the door closes squarely and the seal and latch are undamaged, since that is the safety-critical part.
