Prefold deal on ebay « Back to Group Discussions

36 infant (small) size bleached DSQ prefolds with free s/h for $49 from this seller.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/36-Diaper-Service-Quality-Infant-Prefold-Cloth-Diapers-Wholesale-Free-Shipping-/120857501982?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item61cdacb286

About $30 off the GMD prices...9 lots left.

ETA: These are closer to wide baby or MEDIUM size it looks like. That would save a person about $50+ over the GMD bleached. I love GMD and have great experience with her, but this is a really great deal.

Seller also has 36 (3 dozen) of size LARGE bleached prefolds for $60 with free shipping. Again, about $50 off prices I've found.

This is an awesome deal! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to pass it on to my husband, as we've been looking for an awesome deal. :D

I got mine yesterday. Wow!- quick!

Good quality. Awesome deal.

Onemore - that's awesome! I'm not sure if DH has ordered them yet, but I'm hoping so. He was smart and took the credit card from me when I got put on bed rest, because nothing better to do + credit card + internet = a really bad idea. :P

I am new at this and shopping for prefolds, but I don't know what GMD is. I was trying to look around and compare this to retail prices but I don't think I'm comparing apples to apples. I looked at Indian prefolds on cottonbabies and they were $1.50 each for a small, so it seems like only a $5 savings...am I missing something? I want to jump on this if it is a good deal but I just don't know what to compare it to.

i am not sure about how to compare the different sorts of prefolds to each other, but GMD is green mountain diapers, it is an online shop based in vermont and their cloth-eez prefolds are popular (http://www.greenmountaindiapers.com/diapers.htm). they are indian prefolds, whatever that means (besides made in india). one advantage of buying the GMD over others seems to be that they have a high resale value on diaperswappers (about the same as what they cost).

Hi Reno ---- Roxi pretty much gave the height of my information and knowledge. I have been buying and saving for GMD diapers, but when I saw this deal it is a lot cheaper. They seem to be of equal quality from superficial appearances so far!

I have not started breaking the dipes in yet (will start tonight after getting the kids homeschool curriculum for the week done) but will let you know exactly how they compare to the GMD ones.

I have no idea about the cotton babies. They might be only a $5 savings (plus shipping. Oh my goodness the shipping on the 6 dozen of these things can not be cheap. They are soooo heavy)

I was calculating GMD prices so for my family this is a great, great, deal.

It may not be for your family!!! I would hate to lead any one astray!

Plus, I don't plan on re-saling at all. I will either save them for future children (eek. LOL) or give them away to a person in need later on. So, resale value doesnt have anything to do with my decision. kwim?

I boiled and then washed..then washed and dried. Then I dyed them and washed and dried them.

They shrink perfectly, quilt up very nice, and are very soft. Just giving my review for them. They look so super cute dyed!
