I still buy lots on TM, however I find sales slow, atm. TBH I only sell my "label" gear as I find other stuff goes for next to nothing and its a hassle packaging and posting etc just for $1

I tend to stick everything on $1 reserve.
As an indication of how things have changed tho, last year I sold 6 of the gremlins well-used Peapods (in good condition tho) without the inserts, listed them at $1 reserve and got between $12 and $15 for each.
A few weeks ago I listed a brand new one for $1 reserve and got $3.50 for it  .

We're trying to sell Coopers carseat, and aren't having any luck, I don't like their reserve rules either!

I use it a lot less now. I used to sell new Tag Blankies on there and they went like hotcakes - put a few that I had left on TM this year at just over half the price and still had far fewer sales, so it's not worth the hassle now. I can't be bothered selling kid's clothing for a couple of bucks because the time it takes to list, package and send them is worth more than a few measely dollars to me. I ended up giving away boxes and boxes of Ella's outgrown clothes... though I must admit, sometimes I wonder if I should have listed them as a few enormous bulk lots and at least made a few $$ out of them! At the time I'd been thinking that they were worth so much more than what I'd get for them on TM, that I'd rather give them to someone who appreciates them.

Yeah I did the same thing with Benjy's clothes, Andie.
I sold a bunch of Ella's label stuff in a bulk lot and it just wasn't worth the effort of posting, packaging it all up etc, for what I got for it.
I felt happier just giving it all to someone who really needed it and just don't bother selling clothes on there any more.

I'm like Andie. I know I could get SOME money for everything I want to sell, but at the end of the day I would rather give it away than sell it for less than I would like.
Hence a massive load of clothing to the Sallies the other day.
As an aside, I contacted Women's Refuge to give them this stuff - heaps of women's, maternity and baby clothes (some brand new). I asked if they had a pick up service as it's hard to get out and about with DH taking the car to work.
They didn't even bother to reply to me.... I think that's pretty sad when you're trying to help a worthy charity. I ended up emailing that I hadn't had a reply, and the reply I got just said "I have forwarded your email to the Porirua WR to see if they want it". No thanks or anything! A little disappointing.
