Selling a Steam Deck in Armidale
Armidale is a university town on the New England tablelands, high enough that it gets frost through winter and occasional snow. The university dominates the local economy and the population turns over with the academic year in a way that is obvious on the ground.
The town is small and walkable in the centre, and almost everything else is a short drive. Winter mornings are genuinely cold, so agreeing a middle-of-the-day time in the colder months is sensible.
On anything electrical bought at the end of semester, plug it in before money changes hands. A great deal moves fast in the November clear-out and it is worth the extra five minutes.
Armidale, in New South Wales, has around 25,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
