Where do you sell your secondhand reusable nappies?

Post: # 160197Post Islay »

I've got about 20 Tots Bots bamboozles that we're done with (I found a different reusable that, for no apparent reason, my boyfriend much preferred and therefore used, unlike the bamboozles).

Ebay theoretically bans sales of secondhand nappies, but there's loads listed on there. However, when I listed mine, the listing was cancelled. Why were all these other people able to? Is there somewhere better to sell them? Anyone got any ideas?

They're in really good condition, only had about 3-4 months use from an amazing non-pooing baby, so they've hardly had a rough ride!

I might take some or all - just PM what you want for them and if you know rough weight per nappy ( so I can work out if it's gonna be expensive to ship them here).

Otherwise, I'd have a look at the other listings on ebay and see how they are advertised, perhaps you were too explicit about their secondhandness? Something to be stated in the description rather than the heading (as I bet not all descriptions get read)?

If they don't go on here, then you could always try the cloth nappy tree forum, i think thats what it's called, but now I've typed it it sounds wrong, there is also the usednappies.co.uk e-bay like set up but purely for cloth nappies. Not sure what their rules are for sellers as I seem to be abit of a hoarder :lol:

Having said that, what size are they? As we are now having to build up a newborn stash ready for christmas :cheers:

Thanks for the advice!

Clara, I'll PM you about them.

Luvpie, they're size 1. I think they're meant to go from something like 8-18lb...

well if Clara doesn't want them, can you let me know how much your looking for for them, then I'll do a hidden stash count to see what I've got so far, just trying to work out the washing nappies at christmas and how long they will take to dry in the cold = just how many nappies I need!!

Thanks for the PM, just checked my nappy stash and I have more than I will ever use I reckon (excellent drying weather here means I probably only need about 6 and I've far more than that already!!). So please offer them around xx

Now thats just showing off!!!

I'm currently sat looking out my back window waiting for the rain to start, but not wanting to get the nappies in off the line too soon and miss the wind! Sods law that George will wake up and start crying just as the heavens open!

Sarah, I've just PMed you, but thought I'd say, I reckon 20 was a nice amount for us over winter - it allowed us to always have dry nappies, even though we don't have a tumble drier. A couple more wouldn't have hurt, especially if he'd been a pooey baby (he hardly ever did - 9 days was the record), but I wouldn't have wanted fewer.
