Baby clothes?

We have hundreds of baby clothes, some never worn, all great condition and good makes, 0-12 months


I can%26#039;t be bothered doing the ebay thing and wondered if any mums or dads have ever sold their children%26#039;s clothes


We thought about a car boot but could do with advice as we have never done anything like this before.


Thanks

Baby clothes?
Ebay isn%26#039;t that difficult to do once you%26#039;re up and running and as long as you sell in bulk.





The NCT normally have local baby sales where you can sell your clothes. Check with your local branch.
Reply:Some Friends of mine get all their Baby clothes at boot sales! They sell a lot too!!
Reply:if you know anyone you know is expecting then you could give the clothes to them, or a charity shop would gladly accept them.
Reply:ebay is easier than a car boot i would have thught but i have seen some sold at car boot best to sell in age bundles, nicest stuff have on show then they draw ppl to ur stall
Reply:How come u got so many clothes!!


What u mean u cant afford to give them away, if u hadnt had bought the clothes in the 1st place u would have had more money, d%26#039;oh!


i think u should give them away actually, the moneys gone forget about the money
Reply:There are generally second hand stores for gently used items exclusively for babies. This is a great way for less fortunate to be able to afford some nice clothes.
Reply:i have 4 children who have cost me a fortune in clothes, and they aren%26#039;t in them that long,so you want to make your money back,if you sell them on ebay buyers think about the postage which makes your item sell for less because they include that in the amount they actually want to spend,if you sell them in your local paper people expect a full bin bag for £15,and when its baby clothes you could fill a years supply of clothes into a bin bag, your best bet is to do a car boot sale,its fun to do,and you%26#039;ll get more for the clothes than you would any other way,
Reply:id have a garage sale or give them to friends
Reply:car boot is good idea but you may want o keep them for the next one!!
Reply:If you do a car boot sale, set your stool out so the clothes are easy to look at. Hanging them would be good, but not always possible. Try and put them in age order so that if people ask what sizes you have they can just go through the right age. What ever ou do don%26#039;t just leave them in piles on the floor as I always walk past these stools.
Reply:Before you sell it all are you sure you will never need it again? If you sell it all now, and you have another baby (planned or unplanned) it will cost you more in the long term if you ever need to buy new again.





Me and my sister pass stuff backwards and forwards to each other all the time as you never know if you will ever need it again. She is on her 3rd baby boy now (unexpectedly!) and hopefully i will be needing it again in the future so she is giving it back to me for storage when she finishes with it.





My friend has been trying to sell job lots on eBay and had quite a lot of trouble and not sold much. Now she%26#039;s selling 2 or 3 items in each bundle and selling more items. It is time consuming but she is making more money that way. Car boot sales are ideal as people without computers are more likely to go to them to buy second hand stuff. I would advise the car boot sale first and then try eBay for the rest
Reply:Have a garage sale.
Reply:yes that%26#039;s a good idea but watch out for the early morning dealers they come buy your things for very little money and sell them for double,mind you people still want things for next to nothing, but you will have a laugh and end up with cash to buy more things with, good luck have a good day.
Reply:put it on craigs list (craigslist.com i think) that%26#039;s a web site like ebay except it%26#039;s free and you advertise to people in your area. They come to you and do a %26quot;cash and carry%26quot; Baby clothes are items that people are always looking for everywhere. I bet you will have a lot of luck there and it%26#039;s just the initial picture and list you have to make. Not much work and no mail involved.
Reply:I took ALL my old baby clothes, toys, books, shoes, bath, moses basket etc to the local charity shop.





They were very much appriciated and it meant others could have nice stuff who wouldn%26#039;t have been able to afford these from the shops.
Reply:save them and give then to other friends that may be prego or giv then to good will or sumthing...but dont give all of then away. keep some for the memories...
Reply:Car Boot Sale sounds good, you just really have to watch people, here in NZ we have garage sales, but if you don%26#039;t have a garage sale, a car port would be good... we have car boot sales, which i always found great,
Reply:craigslist and ebay
Reply:You can try posting it on Craigslist.org or have a garage sale. That%26#039;s what I did!
Reply:I think it%26#039;s a great idea, how about a free ad in the Ad Trader or local paper. Oh and sell the whole lot in bulk!
