Cloth Diapering

New GM conspiracy theory

Some postulated on the Goodmamas :) page that there's no way Suz would allow diapers to linger, so she'll yank them after a bit to make it look like they've sold out if people aren't buying.

Thoughts? I tend to agree. I think there are a couple today that will be really unpopular and I just can't see her allowing them to stay up forever. Gotta make us think they're selling like hotcakes!

  • I still can't get over how much drama there is surrounding a friggin' diaper.  I have 2 and while they're very nice, I still don't "get" the hysteria.

  • I think she does pull them. The shark nb sat forever last stocking and I wonder if she just pulled it...

  • I definitely think so. 2 or 3 weeks ago, things sat for a while, and hen 2 or 3 disappeared at the exact same moment right before stragglers.
  • I think the only one that will actually go fast today is the Navy diaper, and good for those mamas! Otherwise, I'm just not that impressed.

    It's definitely cyclical. We're hitting the bottom of the GM circle, demand is going down, so people won't spend $$$ on a diaper. And I am SO done paying double shipping for stalking help, why can't she allow you to put another address in via paypal or such? It's ridiculous!

  • Eh I don't know.  There's been several stockings where certain diapers sat there into the night & next day.  She'd post something like, "thanks for leaving some stuff for the night crowd" or whatever.  I think she'd rather sell them & maek $ than pull them as a charade.

  • I've thought that before. Makes sense. And then in the next week or two those just happen to be stragglers haha

  • I agree, it would make sense to do that too from a marketing stand point. I love my GMs, but have never bought directly from her. I dont want to deal with the pressure of trying to get the print I wants. I just usually try and find some NIP posters that have alot of feedback or buy used. :)

    This. Although she can't keep it up forever, eventually there will be so many stragglers there will be too many for "the collectors". It seems like her casual fans are getting jaded and her die-hard fans are running out of money.

    This to both quotes! How does she not know how much fabric she has to make x amount of diapers, I would imagine it is way easier to cut all the fabric at once when she receives it to make a batch of those diapers so she MUST know how many she will yield at this point.....this isn't her first rodeo!

  • I totally agree.  I have thought that for a while now.

    This.  I'm actually getting rid of all of ours except the cocoa skulls.  DH hates the GMs and loves the BGs.

  • It would make sense to me. The longer a diaper stays up, the less likely I am to buy it. I think I get irritated if I'm waiting for something else and the slow print is holding things up.

    I agree with lrachelle. I'd love to be able to order pre-made ones. It's not like she'd have trouble selling them.
