Need to eBay
I spent most of the day cleaning, as we’re trying to get rid of at least some of our clutter. We’re total pack rats over here, and are reluctant to throw anything away — “just in case” we need it later. This especially applies to baby accessories that we’ve held onto for 5 years now, even though we’ve known for quite some time that we didn’t want to have another child.
So we’ve got a bunch of stuff out in the garage that we’re finally going to put on eBay. I don’t know how much money we can end up getting, but it should be a pretty decent haul considering what we have. For example, we’ve got a Maclaren stroller that is in excellent shape still. I received this particular stroller as a shower gift, and had no idea that they retail for around $300.
But apparently, they’re quite popular with celebrities and so forth, which is part of the reason for their appeal. Plus, they are just terrific products that come with a bunch of features that other strollers lack, such as a convenient carry handle on the side frame, a water-resistant hood with UV protected viewing window, a raincover, and reflective accents for safety when darkness falls. We should definitely be able to get a tidy sum for ours even though it’s used.
In addition to the stroller, we also have a nice crib, bassinet, baby gates, and assorted furniture that I’m sure someone will want.
I don’t often resort to eBay sales because I usually know a few people who need the stuff I’m getting rid of. But I guess it’s a sign of how old I’m getting that none of my friends can use baby items either! Sigh.
