Used purses in Jodhpur typically sell for ₹150 to ₹1,050 (about $2 to $11). Purses sell on the clasp and the lining — a clasp that no longer snaps shut is the fault buyers care about, and it is worth checking before you write a word.
Selling a purse in Jodhpur
Jodhpur sits on the edge of the desert and has a long-established trade in furniture, textiles and handicrafts, much of it made for export. Genuinely distinctive wooden and decorative pieces appear here far more often than elsewhere.
The export furniture trade means well-made wooden pieces circulate locally in a way they do not in most cities. Desert heat and dust are the two things to ask about for anything stored.
The old city inside the walls is narrow and difficult for vehicles, so anything large is collected from outside. The newer areas are open and easy to drive.
Jodhpur, in Rajasthan, has around 1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Jaipur, Kota and Bikaner are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Jodhpur
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.

Brand, material and type: “Leather Purse with Coin Section, Navy” or “Zip Around Purse, 12 Card Slots”. Say whether it has a separate coin compartment — it is one of the main reasons people choose a particular purse and it is rarely mentioned.
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.
