Selling a vinyl box set in Kanpur
Kanpur is a long-established industrial city and the centre of India’s leather trade. Tools, machinery and leather goods have a real local market, and the industrial base means workshop equipment appears regularly.
Industrial employment keeps tools and equipment circulating steadily. Household turnover is slower than in the faster-growing cities, so furniture that appears is usually a genuine clear-out.
On leather goods, check the stitching and the flex points rather than the surface. Leather that has dried out cracks at the folds first, and polish hides a great deal.
Kanpur, in Uttar Pradesh, has around 2.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Lucknow, Ghaziabad and Agra are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Is it an original pressing?
