    Chinese/Hong Kong ebay nappies?

    I know you get what you pay for generally, and these are a good price, but has anyone tried them? I was looking at the Coolababy ones in particular because they look trim and have the extra row of snaps for better sizing. Though I did notice they only seem to have only microfibre inside.
    DD is not a big wetter, and I think (can't remember) they have a pocket for extra boosting anyway.
    Does anyone have an opinion?

    I would agree with Mel - get one and see if you like it.
    I have had a few bad ebay nappy experiences, so I am jaded lol
    But I did get one recently that was actually really good from a WAHM.
    But mass produced in China? Id be wary....
    Let us know what they are like though if you try one - love to hear they are ace!

    Took your advice guys and bought one to try. It was $12 all up so not such a loss if it's no good. I'll let you know...

    Just a quick update for those interested. I've only used the nappy a couple of times because of the OSFA snaps rolling out into DD's chubby thighs. That's probably the only reason it doesn't work for us though.
    Seems to be decently made (hard to tell how long it would last), really great fit over the butt (beautifully trim). Just a pocket with two MF inserts which I found ok because DD's not a big wetter. You'd probably need to use something else as well if you have a big wetter.
    So if you want some budget nappies, don't have a problem with the snap issue and don't mind buying Chinese, it might be worth trying one out.
