Selling a socket set in Kalba
Kalba is a coastal town on the Gulf of Oman that belongs to Sharjah despite sitting on the far side of the country, and it is best known for the mangrove reserve at its edge — one of the oldest stands in Arabia. It is a small, settled, family town rather than a commuter or contract one, and that shows in what changes hands.
Households here turn over slowly, so the supply is driven by families growing rather than by people leaving. Children outgrow bikes, cots and furniture on a predictable cycle and that is most of what comes onto the market.
The town is small enough that a landmark on the main road is a perfectly good meeting point, and a car is assumed on both sides. For anything heavy, agree who is lifting it and whether there is a lift in the building before the day itself.
Kalba, in Sharjah, has around 50,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Sharjah, Khor Fakkan and Dubai are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Heavy for its size, so weigh the case before quoting postage. Tape the case shut, because a socket set that opens in transit arrives as a bag of loose sockets.
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.
