What do you do with ur LO's clothes once they're too small?! - Page 4

We give some of the stuff to OH cousin as she has a little girl 6 weeks younger then river and keep the unisex bits and outfits i particulary liked.

My SIL hands down her little girls stuff, she is 3 months older then River, we keep most of that stuff for next baby. If next bub turns out to be a boy will sell our clothes for his clothes

Those of you who've sold baby clothes on eBay - did you only sell stuff that was a fair price to begin with? Or did you sell a bundle? What sort of prices did you get?

We have most of Adam's old things still, piled up in a bag in the bedroom. I have separated some bits that have sentimental value and that I like enough to keep for another baby (nearly all our things were unisex) but there is tonnes left over. I'd like to sell some of it but wonder if it's worth the effort.

when i had my daughter i saved all my baby stuff for if i had another, when i did have another i wanted all new things again so i dont keep harrisons things now i just sell them on here or ebay and whatever money i get off them goes to his next size clothes, is annoying tho when you sell them for a few pounds when they cost you a small fortune and he only got to wear them few times

I saved most of Kathryn's clothes for #2, but #2 turned out to be a boy! Kept all the unisex stuff and plain white onsies. My friend is now PG with a girl so I gave them to her (kept all the sentimental stuff though!).

I tend to pop a price on the more expensive things that have only been worn once or twice - like whole outfits that cost more. I tend to add those on here tho rather than ebay. And things like 8x vests - It depends where they were from - if they cost £8 new, i'd prob advertise the set for maybe £2.50. Condition is a huge part tho and I then tend to bundle up whatever is left and ebay it

I think i got £12 for my last bundle

I have put mine in vacuum sacks and put them in the attic as we are hoping to use them again at some point!
If I wasn't planning on ttcing again, I would probably put the decent things on ebay, then bootfair or charity shop the rest x
