    selling pre-loved cloth nappies on ebay

    Hi there,

    I'm trying to list some used cloth nappies on ebay, however, I think I can only list them if they're brand new. The drop down tab has 'Brand New' as the only option and when I describe the items as second hand in the description, it won't let me upload the ad. I've seen other people have managed to list their second hand cloth nappies and then describe them as second hand or used, in their description.

    What should I do? Maybe just list them on BB?

    TIA

    I am fairly sure preloved nappies are not allowed on ebay, I believe there are other sites and a Facebook group also. If no one else posts them I will look up when get home.

    Yeah, it wasn't until I went to hit 'list' that I realised, yet there's quite a few that get listed which are pre-loved.
    Will check out the facebook group - thanks for letting me know.

    I don't use cloth, however, i'd assume that they list them as 'New' but then probably advise (or add a Disclaimer) in the description that they are actually Pre-loved?

    They list them as new and then write preloved in the description. Every now and then someone goes through and deletes them as you are technically not allowed to do it. Heaps of people get away with it though. There are heaps of MCN buy and sell pages on FB, im a member of about 4 of them. PM me if you want the links
