Re: Selling my baby carriers, any interest or tips?

  • I think it's hard to sell carriers on CL just b/c it's such a small niche. I'd recommend selling on diaperswappers and thebabywearer.com
  • I joined Diaperswappers a year ago with the intent to sell there but when I try to start a thread it says I don't have permission to do that..... Not sure how it works but clearly I'm not active enough there to sell yet. Not sure what I have to do to get that priviledge tho..... I'm myday1708 there too

    Will check out BabyWearer... Thanks!!!

    I consigned one carrier and we'll see how it goes. It's a beautiful pouch sling that they have priced at $40, then $30, then $20 for a 3-month period. I'd get 50%

    you have to have a minimum number of posts (in the general forums, not FSOT)... 10 I think? and then you can apply to be a FSOT seller....when you try to post on the FSOT thread it should prompt you.....if not, you can get everything together and I can post for you :)

    ETA - here is the link on how to be a seller on diaperswappers

  • I was also going to recommend trying TheBabyWearer.com. I think they also require a minimum number of posts before you can post to sell.

    Perhaps post on the AP board here? Lots of those girls are into wearing their babies. There's also a Swap Spot on this board that I think you can list things for sale.

    Malia, I tried to sell my babyhawk on CL with only one bite offering $10!! I paid $90!! I'd like to get at least half of that, if I don't then it's not worth selling. Let me know if you get any hits and maybe I'll post mine later. :)
