Where to buy used kids stuff online  

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Once upon a time, I bought and sold clothes and kids items on the TP here and on ebay. Now both seem to have so many issues. Where do most people buy those things online these days? I am looking for high quality used items. Thanks!

Ebay has given me some problems and with the new changes I just dont want to use them anymore. My local craigslist is not that active.

I also use craigslist, although there is really very little that I find useful in terms of kids clothing. Most recently I bought an almost brand new winter coat for dd, but usually there's not very much. A side note-I used to frequent ebay a lot, but I can't stand it anymore. I feel ripped off by the shipping charges, hate the whole bidding thing, and paypal with them has been really difficult for some reason. It's really changed, and not for the better.

I use Craigslist (Seattle) and it is amazing! I've gotten a computer armoire, piano and 2 Pottery Barn rugs for CHEAP. Depends on your area, I suppose. I'm not an EBAY fan, not patient enough.

I find some great deals on my local Craigslist but it comes and goes. About a month ago I got a HUGE box of boys 4-5T for only $10!! SO much clothing... it was GREAT!! I haven't used Ebay (buying or selling) in a LONG time. I really do miss the old TP here I got SO SO SO many great deals on clothing lots for my lo's and I would sell their outgrown clothing also.

maybe post an ISO on the new TP? it is free and a mama who has some things to sell might see it without havign to do her own post. i list a bunch there but there just isn't the traffic that the old TP used to have. i usually sell my kids stuff at a local consignment sale because it's so much easier than taking pics and describing items but if i saw an ISO post for items i had it would be worth the trouble.

I've joined a Gymboree board a while back and have bought and sold some nicer stuff there, but it's pretty pricey, not as cheap as I would have gotten on the old TP. I also get stuff at the places a PP mentioned (AM and DS). I have a lot of stuff I need to get rid of, but I"m so busy I am just donating most of it, and what's really nice I am giving to my SIL, so now I'm not selling much.
