so irritated!
so I'm trying to sell some dipes on diaper swappers and they are all less than a month old (except for about 4-5, and I put that in the description). a lot of them were only used 2-5 times, because I was trying to decide if I liked the dipe or not. so I priced almost everything at 50% of retail and then added like a dollar for shipping (which is $1.50-$2 less than what shipping will actually cost) so after I shipped I'd make less than 50% of what I paid, especially after pp fees come out. and people keep offering me wayy below what I'm asking. one woman asked me for dipes for a price that would be like her getting two of them for free based on my asking price. and they were all ones used less than 5 times. in EEEUC.

I had the same thing happen on Facebook but mostly with fellow Canadians. I'm having much better luck selling to local mommas who are starting cloth and ask me all kinds of questions and I teach them all they need to know. They appreciate my help and are willing to pay a fair price.

Those are cheap. Do Facebook and wait it out. You are definently not being greedy.

I'd definitely try the cloth diaper swap page on Facebook. I listed 3 items last night and they are all sold. I sold a grovia shell for $13 ppd, grovia fitted for $20 and sbish Snapless for $18. All eeeuc like you stuff and no one haggled with me :)

I need to go find you on diaper swappers! That's a steal! And I agree, put firm on the price in your description. Some people are just cheap by nature and will always low ball.

Also in your listing put that your price is firm. That weeds out the cheapies and then they dont waste your time.

pp is either previous post/er or PayPal. Depends on the context.
Ppd is postage paid. It means that the seller will pay shipping or that shipping is included in the price.
deleted-user·
Dumb question but what does pp mean and also sometimes they put ppd?

Sell on Cloth Diaper Swap on facebook! I've always gotten my asking price and I usually only knock off about a dollar of what I paid and I used them for a few months. And I've always sold in one day!

I would also go to the b/s/t pages on Facebook and price them at 75% so that when people try to talk you down you can still get 50% for them. I think $14 for a tot bots that was only used a few time is really cheap!

go to the brands bst pages on Facebook. I never get terrible offers like that..
deleted-user·
Sell them on eBay. The haggling and viruses of DS just isn't worth it.

I would go to the b/s/t pages on Facebook. People pay more for brands they are loyal to. You definitely are not asking too much. I wouldn't hesitate to ask $15+ for euc tots bots. Used sunbaby usually go for $8-12 depending on the print.

I would hold out. They are just low ballin you. Someone will want them at those prices they are a good deal.

for example, I have a Tots Bots that I paid $23.95 for. it was used 3 times. I have it listed for $14ppd. subtract 71 cents for pp fees and $2.12 for shipping and I make $11.17
and that's one that I added $2 to. the GroVia shells are $18 new and I have them listed for $9ppd. which means ill make $6.92.
I'm not trying to be greedy, but these diapers are in pristine condition. one of the reasons I liked idea if CDs is be cause I didn't like a certain dipe I could get 50-70% of retail and make most of my $ back... or so everyone said.

I have a lot. Sunbaby, GroVia shells & soakers, Charlie banana, Bottombumpers one size, ragababe, tots bots, RAR, Fuzzibunz & brown cow cotton.

That doesn't sound high to me... I would hold out a little longer at your price and if no one wants to pay that then reevaluate.

What are they?
