Selling a suitcase in Ichalkaranji
Ichalkaranji is one of the densest powerloom towns in the state and is widely called the textile capital of its region, with sizing, processing and weaving all concentrated in a town of modest size. Almost every household here has a connection to cloth.
Loom employment brings workers in from surrounding districts who keep minimal households and clear them when they move. The trade’s cycles move household goods along with them.
On white goods from a loom household, ask to see a full cycle. Power fluctuation and hard water are both common here and both show up in a running machine rather than a stationary one.
Ichalkaranji, in Maharashtra, has around 290,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Mumbai, Pune and Nagpur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Ichalkaranji
UPI has largely replaced cash for in-person handovers and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. Cash on delivery is still widely expected for anything posted, and it is worth deciding your position on it before you list.

Bulky but light, so collection is often easier than postage — volumetric charges on a large case can exceed its value. Cases post better nested if you are selling several.
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.

How much does it weigh empty?
Weigh it. On a checked bag every kilogram of case is a kilogram less of luggage, and frequent flyers ask specifically.
