Used Polaroid cameras in Visakhapatnam typically sell for ₹2,550 to ₹5,500 (about $27 to $58). Instant cameras are bought to be used, so the whole sale rests on one thing: proving it fires and that film is still made for it.
Selling a Polaroid camera in Visakhapatnam
Visakhapatnam is a port and steel city on the east coast with a significant naval presence. Salt air and humidity are constant, and the industrial base means tools and equipment circulate alongside ordinary household goods.
Naval and industrial postings move households on fixed cycles, and departing families commonly sell rather than transport. Cyclone season is a real consideration on the east coast.
The city runs along the coast between the hills and the sea, so it is long rather than wide and the distances follow the coastline. Driving is straightforward outside the port areas.
Salt air corrodes hardware. On anything metal stored near the coast, check fasteners, hinges and bearings rather than judging by the paint, which lasts longest.
Handing it over in Visakhapatnam
India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.

Getting it ready
- Check which film format it takes and confirm that format is still in production, since several are not.
- Clean the rollers inside the film door, which is what causes streaked and blotchy pictures.
Photograph
- The film compartment with the rollers visible
- The model name and any battery compartment, plus every scuff or crack
Put in the description
- Whether it has been tested, and with what result
- Battery type, and whether the camera takes batteries or the film pack does
Model and film type: “Polaroid 600 Instant Camera, Tested and Working” or “Instax Mini 9, Boxed”. The film format is the critical detail because it determines whether the camera is usable at all. The word tested belongs in the title when true — most listings cannot say it.
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.
