What should I look for when buying used?

SallyAnneS

I have been searching kijiji for used CD and I think I have come around a seller that I am going to buy from.  Through e-mail she seems honest about the ones that have stains (which I am not buying).  But I have never CD before, or even seen CDs before.  So what should I be looking for when I go to pick them up??

Here is what I am thinking about buying:

2 knickernappeis
3 BumGenius with velco
1 Tot Bots
4 Softbums

shhh.... don't tell DH they are used!

make sure any velcro is functioning, not curling

make sure laundry tabs are still sticky - try to put tabs down and see if they come up easily or if you have to pull on them (you should have to pull)

any light stains can probably be taken care of by putting them in the sun so if they cheap you should go for it

make sure they come with inserts

anything with snaps make sure they work well

make sure elastic is nice and tight and stretchy and not worn out

Thanks for the tips!

I once bought from someone sight unseen and it was the ugliest, most stained CD I've ever come across

Yep, she had pictures on her ad.  And I going to have a look at them when I pick them up.  If I'm not impressed, I won't buy. 

I told DH about them being used.  He was actully okay with it.  I am shocked.  I think because he knows I wouldn't put our kid into something stained and gross.  He did ask right away about how to wash them though.  I hope he is happy when I bring them home tomorrow.  I am also picking up 10 fuzzbuns (is that the right name?) tomorrow.  I'm SO excited!!
