Used midi skirts in Canberra typically sell for A$19 to A$77 (about $13 to $54). Midi is a length, not a size, so the single most useful thing in your listing is the waist-to-hem measurement in centimetres.
Selling a midi skirt in Canberra
Canberra is a planned government city with high average incomes, a large public service and two universities. People here replace things while they still have plenty of life left in them, so the second-hand quality is unusually high relative to the price asked.
Public service postings and university terms both move people in and out on predictable cycles, and Canberra genuinely gets cold in winter, so heating, bedding and warm clothing move on a real seasonal rhythm rather than a notional one.
The city was designed around driving and is organised into distinct town centres, so naming which one you are near saves everyone a long trip. Parking is plentiful and free in most places, which makes collecting large items easy.
On office furniture, check the gas cylinder and the mechanism. A lot of very good chairs come onto the market here looking barely used, with the one expensive part already worn out.
Handing it over in Canberra
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.

Put in the description

Fabric, style and length: “Satin Bias Cut Midi Skirt, Sage, Size 10, 78cm”. Put the centimetre length in the title — on different heights a midi becomes a maxi or a knee-length, and that mismatch is the main reason these come back.
