When can I sell the nappies?

DS (7yo) consistently dry at night, finally, for last 4 weeks.
Mostly dry for a month before that.
Well, one night bit of an accident, only because he forgot to go to toilet before bed.
I am eyeing up the cloth & paper nappies I had for him, itching to flog them.
How long do you think I should wait to be sure he's dry?
1 month? 2, 3?
wwyd?

I'd flog the cloth now, and hang onto a few paper ones for a month or two. Chances are he won't want to go back into them now anyway!

Sell the cloth ones.

He prefers the cloth ones, actually. And they're mind-boggling expensive new & don't fetch the best 2nd hand price even though they are very hard to find 2nd hand (I paid 62 or so new and expect to get no more than 12 back on resale, even though they're in vgc-excellent condition).

So I think it might make more sense to flog the paper ones & hold onto cloth... but anyway, flogging some of the lot sounds reasonable, one way or the other, does anyone disagree?

Oh, and here's the best bit, someone on Ebay is flogging half a pack of the paper ones for more than you can usually buy them for new! They were even on half price offer the other day in Boots, so don't ask me who would pay so much, but evidently the buyers are out there...
