Where am I best off selling nappies nowadays?

I have sackfuls of them. I could probably make some sort of money on them with the pretty ones, but right now I just want someone who doesn't need photos etc, just wants to know I have x amount of y in z size and will make them go far away from me for a few quid.

I don't even know what prices are like any more.

used nappies
cloth nappy tree

or pay £10 and do it on the mumsnet nappies for sale section

beware of ebay, you are not allowed to sell used nappies there, and while many people do, quite often they just cancel all the used auctions. (very annoying when bidding on them)

Nowhere, ime smile.
Okay, they will only sell well (you might get back up to 30% of purchase price) if they are
A) Fairly recently made & currently popular styles
B) Quite soft (so do not bother if you live in a hardwater area or actually used your naps for more than one DC).

<<waves at great nappy guru>> I am rapidly losing my nappy mojo too now DS3 is getting ready to give them up. Should at least sell off my medium Ittis which are still in pretty good nick and random Berry Plushes and Blueberries but I haven't got round to it and he's been in large for yonks!

How about Natural Mamas? They aren't up their own arses like CNT.

I was a big fan of CNT but the for sales boards are a bit slower now I think. There is a newish facebook group but IME most people like a photo so they can see for themselves there are no stains.
Itti's have been heavily discounted since the Itti UK site went live so they aren't getting much for second hand as you can get new for £8ish (discontinued colours)

What have you got? I'm still stocking up for my little boy's arrival. I have just bought some from ebay (£35 for 14 little lambs if that helps you price yours) where any good deals are snapped up it seems.

I'd be interested to know this too as I have responded to ads on a number of sites asking qns and expressing interest (incl gumtree, preloved and the Nappysite) and not had one response! I was intending to ask if anybody knew of a good site. I've seen nappies on Ebay too, they are listed as new but in the detail people say used, I think because Ebay banned used nappies on the site and people are trying to get round it?

Just about to start a thread asking exactly the same question! I have some brand new size 1 Lollipop softees to sell on behalf of a friend (she bought them 3 years ago and never used them) - if you aren't allowed to sell used nappies on eBay can you sell brand new unused ones?

RandomMess Sat 08-Oct-11 18:44:57

Yes you can sell unused nappies on ebay.

Tchaikovsky Tue 11-Oct-11 09:18:57

There's www.usednappies.co.uk. But you'd still be best with photos smile

thatsnotmybumitstoowobbly Tue 11-Oct-11 09:21:23

clothnappytree is the best imo

and ditto on the hemp/bamboo boosters - i need some more!

rosy71 Thu 03-Nov-11 22:07:09

I've been wondering this too. I have 2 drawers full of nappies - various types. I really need to get rid of them. Has anyone tried putting them in their local paper?

Debs75 Sun 22-Jan-12 15:36:43

Ive just listed some on ebay but had to put new condition then state used in the description.
Also tried gumtree and on the mumsnet selling board but im the only ad on there
