Selling a suitcase in Siliguri
Siliguri is the gateway to the northeast and the hill stations, a tea and transit city with heavy monsoon rainfall. It serves a wide surrounding region and trade here is unusually varied for the city’s size.
Trade and transport move households steadily, and the city’s role as a regional gateway brings people through constantly. Rainfall is heavy for months at a time and damp is the first thing to ask about.
Rainfall here is heavy for months. Ask where anything electrical or upholstered was stored, and check the underside and back for mould rather than the visible surfaces.
Siliguri, in West Bengal, has around 510,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Kolkata, Howrah and Durgapur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
