    Default Would you buy this diaper used?

    BumGenius elemental AIO with snaps, retails normally for $25, offered to me for $15 each. It has light staining (light yellowish, almost like spit up). I am such a stickler for stains, I have always sun-ed my diapers after washing. How easy would these stains be to get out myself?

    Would you buy this diaper at this price?

    If the outside looked good too, and if it was only that stain inside then yes. A light yellow stain sounds like a breastmilk poop stain, which is super easy to sun out. Does price include shipping?

    I think that price is a little high for a stained diaper. It's not unfair or a terrible deal, though, if you don't mind doing the sunning yourself (and live in a climate where that actually works).

    The outside looks great. I can try to sun it out, I live in SoCal (we had a pool party yday). However, my hubby recently did not sun an insert before putting it in the dryer and I was unable to sun that out. Can I also bleach it out?

    , but it is an Elemental and most of those are selling for $17 in EUC on Diaper Swappers, and when I was originally looking for AIO diapers in September a lot of used ones were going for $20 and were used and free of stains. I ended up getting all 18 of my BG AIOs sized for $8 or $9 each, and got my BG 4.0s on clearance for $13. I have been very happy with my used diapers!

    I would always try the sun first, step B if that doesn't work oxyclean, last choice bleach--since you're paying extra for an organic diaper, kind of sad to add nasty bleach to it you know?
