Anyone ever sell their LO clothing? We have a bunch of clothing DD has outgrown and I was thinking of selling them on Craig's List. What is the best way to do this and how the heck do you price it? Any tips or BTDT? TIA!!!

I have sold some lots on CL. Nothing I had was special, just typical Old Navy, Children's Place type stuff. I priced at a little under the going price, which was $1 a piece. I sold lots only because I didn't want to hassle with multiple buyers. I did my lots strictly by size. We live in San Francisco so seasons aren't a big factor here. Take good pictures and post as many as are allowed. And give a decent description, meaning list generally the contents by type of item and brands included.

Good luck!

I agree, sell as a lot. Unless it is pretty specific brands that have a high resale (Gymbo, Hanna Andersson) in which case selling by piece is an option, but for that eBay is smarter.

I agree. I have found that $30-$40 lots sell best. (larger ones seem to be too pricey for people, and cheaper would not be worth the trouble). I sell seasonally, by size and am very vigilant about photos and descriptions, just like I would for ebay. I have made tons of money each season this way and it's nice to have it to buy new stuff!
