Used tool sets in Tirunelveli typically sell for ₹900 to ₹8,500 (about $9 to $89). Tool sets sell on completeness, so count everything against the case moulding before listing — a set with obvious gaps is worth far less than one you can show is complete.
Selling a tool set in Tirunelveli
Tirunelveli is an old temple city on the Thamirabarani, known across the state for its halwa, and it serves a large and well-irrigated agricultural district. It is a settled, long-established city rather than a recently industrialised one.
The temple area and the main market are dense and busy, so agree a landmark on a wider road for anything needing a vehicle. Distances across the city are short.
On appliances, ask about hard water and to see the machine run. Scaling on elements and pumps is the commonest failure here and a full cycle shows it up immediately.
Tirunelveli, in Tamil Nadu, has around 480,000 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. Chennai, Coimbatore and Madurai are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Tirunelveli

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.
