Selling studio monitors in Alice Springs
Alice Springs sits almost exactly in the centre of the continent, hundreds of kilometres from anywhere, with genuine desert extremes: very hot days, cold nights and almost no rain. It serves an enormous remote area and runs substantially on tourism to the rock and the ranges.
Tourism and government contracts both rotate people through on fixed terms, and they sell up rather than freight things home. Vehicle and camping equipment turns over constantly for exactly the same reason.
Everything is a short drive within town and an extremely long one outside it. Freight in and out is slow and expensive, which is precisely why buying locally matters here more than almost anywhere else in the country.
Ask whether the item has been out on the tracks. Corrugated dirt roads shake things apart in a way sealed-road use never does, and it shows up in mounts, brackets and fastenings rather than in the bodywork.
Handing it over in Alice Springs
