An old microwave oven lying unused in your Mysuru home can still bring in handy cash. With the city’s steady mix of families, students and a growing IT presence, working second-hand ovens sell readily — and a dead unit fetches scrap value too. Here’s how to sell yours fast across Mysuru.

How much can you get for an old microwave in Mysuru?

Working convection (2–5 years): ₹2,000–₹5,000

Working solo/grill (2–6 years): ₹1,200–₹3,500

Not working / scrap: ₹200–₹700

In Mysuru, solo and convection ovens from LG, Samsung and IFB sell fastest as families across Vijayanagar and Kuvempunagar look for affordable kitchen upgrades. A clean, tested unit usually finds a buyer within a few days.

Best ways to sell old microwave in Mysuru

1. OLX — best for maximum price

OLX gives you the widest buyer base in Mysuru. List under Electronics & Appliances with clear photos and your locality — buyers in Vijayanagar, Kuvempunagar and Gokulam prefer nearby pickups to keep things simple. Mention the brand, type and that it’s tested working.

2. Quikr & local groups

Quikr still works for appliances, but Mysuru’s residential WhatsApp groups and Facebook buy-sell pages (active around Vijayanagar and Gokulam) often sell faster with no commission. Post in your locality group first — neighbours trust local sellers and pickup is instant.

3. Second-hand appliance dealers & scrap

Used-appliance dealers around Kuvempunagar and the shops near the city centre buy working microwaves for resale and pay on the spot, though a bit below OLX rates. For a dead unit, a local kabadiwala or Mysuru e-waste collector takes it for ₹200–₹700 — never dump electronics with regular trash.

4. Exchange when buying new

Upgrading? Croma and Reliance Digital stores in Mysuru, plus Amazon and Flipkart exchange offers, let you trade in the old microwave for an instant discount. Convenient, though exchange value is usually lower than a direct OLX sale.

Tips for selling in Mysuru

Deep-clean it: wipe grease off the cavity and door glass — Mysuru buyers inspect hygiene closely.
Keep the manual and tray: the turntable and grill rack clearly raise resale value.
Show it heating: demo a cup of water boiling so Vijayanagar and Kuvempunagar buyers trust it on the first visit.
Price realistically: check live OLX Mysuru listings for your model and price within range to sell within days.
