Used projectors in Alice Springs typically sell for A$96 to A$575 (about $67 to $405). Projector value is dominated by lamp hours, because a replacement lamp can cost a large share of the projector’s worth.
Selling a projector in Alice Springs
Alice Springs sits almost exactly in the centre of the continent, hundreds of kilometres from anywhere, with genuine desert extremes: very hot days, cold nights and almost no rain. It serves an enormous remote area and runs substantially on tourism to the rock and the ranges.
Tourism and government contracts both rotate people through on fixed terms, and they sell up rather than freight things home. Vehicle and camping equipment turns over constantly for exactly the same reason.
Everything is a short drive within town and an extremely long one outside it. Freight in and out is slow and expensive, which is precisely why buying locally matters here more than almost anywhere else in the country.
Alice Springs, in Northern Territory, has around 26,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Darwin, Sydney and Melbourne are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Alice Springs
Australia’s second-hand market is strongly local and strongly seasonal, with most activity concentrated in the eastern capitals and buyers who expect to collect.

Resolution, brightness and lamp: “Epson 1080p Projector, 3000 Lumens, 800 Lamp Hours Used”. Lamp hours in the title is unusual and immediately credible. State native resolution rather than the supported maximum, which is how projectors are commonly oversold.
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.
