Selling a purse in Nanded
Nanded is a major Sikh pilgrimage city on the Godavari with a substantial visitor economy and a settled local population. Trade rises and falls with the pilgrimage calendar more than with any other factor.
The langar and the visitor trade keep a standing demand for catering-scale pots, burners and seating that a city this size would not otherwise have, and it comes onto the market in bulk. Away from that, households here stay put for years, so a listing is usually a real clear-out rather than an upgrade.
The old city around the gurudwara is a knot of narrow lanes where a car simply will not go, so anything sizeable has to be walked out to the ring road. The newer colonies across the Godavari are ordinary driving.
Nanded, in Maharashtra, has around 560,000 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. Mumbai, Pune and Nagpur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Nanded
Negotiation is normal and expected rather than a sign of a difficult buyer. Price with a little room in it and say whether the price is firm.

- The corners and any scuff, lining tear or discolouration
Put in the description
- Number of card slots, note sections and whether there is a coin compartment

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.
