Toys: We are committed to selling safe toys. Please check the CPSC website to check your items for recalls. The site is very easy to navigate and gives you many different ways to search for your item. You, as the seller, are responsible for not selling any recalled items. Please make sure that toys that require batteries have working batteries so that buyers know the toy functions properly. Make sure all games and puzzles have all parts. Just as you would not want your child disappointed by an incomplete game or puzzle, our customers would not either, so please take the time to check. We accept bikes, outdoor play equipment, ride-ons, video game systems as well as cartridges. No games of a violent nature will be accepted. No toy guns will be accepted. No stuffed animals, except those that take batteries and have a function.
Books, movies, and music: Children’s books printed after 1985 will be accepted as well as pregnancy and parenting books. Often books of a similar theme, grouped together, will be more likely to sell. VHS & DVD movies must match the sleeve they are in. No R rated movies. All childrens’ music CD’s are welcome.
Equipment: Cribs, bassinets, changing tables, rocking chairs, gliders, nursery furniture, bouncers, saucers, swings, walkers, car seats, boppies, bumbos, play mats, high chairs, booster seats, slings, breast pumps, etc. If we haven’t listed it, and you are unsure if it’s accepted, please just drop us an email. Again, please check the CPSC website for possible recalls of your items. All car seats must also pass the Consignor Car Seat Checklist and be accompanied by a signed copy of the checklist.
Bedding: We accept all unstained sheets, bedding ensembles, and room decor.
Just a few notes:
-
Please include the manual whenever possible. You can put it in a ziplock bag and tape it to your item. These are always appreciated.
-
Please bring any tools needed to assemble any equipment you will be selling. All baby equipment except for cribs must be assembled at the sale. This is your responsibility.
-
Cribs may be bundled together with all of their parts AND the manual. They should also have a photo attached of the crib assembled. PLEASE check the CPSC website for recalls on your crib as there have been a lot more recalled as of late.
-
We cannot accept worn underwear, only those new and still in the package.
- We cannot accept children’s costume jewelery.
-
We also cannot accept used pacifiers, bottle nipples, or teethers.
-
Onesies can be bundled together and placed in a ziplock with the tag taped to the outside of the bag. PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY ARE UNSTAINED.
-
Bibs or other small items may be grouped together (similar items in a group) and put in a ziplock bag with the tag taped to the outside of the bag. Tape the bag shut.
-
Put tights with the tag pinned on, into a ziplock bag.
- Most importantly, please carefully look over all of your items and make sure they are still of good quality. We will be pulling anything we find with stains off of the sales floor, so don’t spend time tagging stained clothes or baby gear that will never get sold. Instead, please spend the time to clean your items.
