Used office chairs in Kozhikode typically sell for ₹750 to ₹14,000 (about $8 to $145). Office chairs sell on brand and on the state of the gas lift, because a chair that sinks slowly under you is the fault every used buyer has been caught by.
Selling an office chair in Kozhikode
Kozhikode was the great spice port of the Malabar coast and the place Vasco da Gama landed, and it remains a trading city with a strong food culture and a substantial timber and plywood industry. Literacy here is high and the connection to the Gulf is a defining economic fact.
Gulf migration shapes this market more than anything else: families set up households when someone returns and clear them when they go back, often selling everything at once rather than piece by piece.
Ask where the item spent the monsoon and whether it was near the coast. Salt air and months of damp together are hard on metal fittings and electronics, and both work from the inside out.
Kozhikode, in Kerala, has around 430,000 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. Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi and Kollam are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Usually collected. Most office chairs separate into seat, base and back, which makes them fit in a car — say so if yours does, because buyers assume they need a van.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell an office chair in Kozhikode?

Do all the adjustments work?
Test each lever individually and list any that do not. Broken tilt locks are common and worth disclosing.
