Used TV units in Leeds typically sell for £25 to £140 (about $34 to $190). TV units sell almost entirely on dimensions, because the buyer has a specific television and a specific alcove, and every question they ask is really about whether it fits.
Selling a TV unit in Leeds
Leeds is the financial and legal centre of the north with two large universities packed close to the centre, and it has one of the strongest vintage clothing scenes in the country. Kirkgate Market has been trading since the nineteenth century, so buying used here is entirely unremarkable rather than a lifestyle position.
The student districts empty and refill every summer, and because they are so concentrated the turnover is visible: whole streets change hands in a fortnight. That is when desks, bookshelves and bikes come onto the market in volume.
The centre is small enough to cross on foot in twenty minutes and the station sits in the middle of it, which makes meeting up straightforward. The dense student districts north of the centre are close enough together that collecting furniture from one is a short trip rather than an afternoon.
Leeds, in England, has around 800,000 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. London, Birmingham and Sheffield are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Leeds
Distance selling rules bind traders, not private sellers, but an item must still be as described and anything sold as working must actually work. Around Headingley, Hyde Park and Chapel Allerton are where this sort of thing tends to change hands.
What TV units are worth

Working out what yours is worth
- Measure the width and state the maximum TV size

Getting it ready
- Clear it out and clean the top, then check the cable routing holes at the back are intact.
- Test drawers and doors, and check any glass shelf for chips at the corners.

Put in the description
- Width, depth and height in centimetres, and the usable top width between any raised edges
- Storage layout — open shelves, drawers, cupboards — and whether shelves are adjustable
Width first, because that is the search: “150cm TV Unit, Oak Effect, 2 Drawers” or “Corner TV Stand, Glass Shelves, 100cm”. Say whether it is a corner unit, since that is a completely different buyer and putting it in the title saves you a stream of wrong enquiries.
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.

Will my 55-inch TV fit on it?
Give the usable top width in centimetres and let them check their own stand footprint. Screen size in inches is diagonal and tells nobody how wide the feet sit.
