Used microwaves in Ajman typically sell for AED 99 to AED 445 (about $27 to $120). Microwaves are cheap, plentiful and sold on cleanliness — but the one thing a buyer genuinely needs to know is whether the door and seal are undamaged.
Selling a microwave in Ajman
Ajman is the smallest emirate and one of the most affordable places to rent in the country, which draws people who commute to Dubai and Sharjah. The second-hand market here is practical and price-led, and buyers are looking for something that works rather than something that impresses. It is also one of the things that moves most reliably here, so there is a local audience for it already.
Everything is within a short drive and the emirate is small enough that collection is rarely more than twenty minutes. Most handovers happen at the buyer’s or seller’s building, and access is usually simpler than in the larger cities.
On appliances and furniture that have moved between rentals several times, check the parts that get handled: hinges, seals, drawer runners and feet. Those wear long before anything structural does.
Ajman has around 540,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Put in the description
- Whether the turntable, roller ring and any accessories are included
- That it has been tested, and the state of the door, seal and interior
Postable but bulky and easily damaged, so a well-padded box and a taped door are essential. Local collection is usually the sensible route at this price point.
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.
