Selling a slip dress in Bhopal
Bhopal is a planned administrative city built around two large lakes, greener and less congested than most Indian cities of its size. Government employment dominates and the pace of household turnover is correspondingly measured.
Government transfers move households on posting cycles, which produces predictable waves of full household sales rather than a steady trickle. Students add an academic cycle on top.
The city is spread out but easy to drive with reasonable parking, so collecting furniture is uncomplicated. The old and new parts of the city are quite distinct and worth distinguishing when arranging a meeting.
On furniture from a government quarter, ask how many times it has been moved. Transfer households move furniture repeatedly and case pieces loosen a little with each one.
Bhopal, in Madhya Pradesh, has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Indore, Jabalpur and Gwalior are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

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.
