Re: Get the holidays on EBAY

November 24, 2008

I am addicted to ebay lol I think I need something like AA for ebay rehab. But

mainly its because I can buy toys and clothes very very cheaply and if I find

that my ASD kids wont wear or play with them they are very easy to sell on to

someone else back on ebay.

Â

For instance my Amy is 4 and likes the glittery clothes but it depends on what

material is touching her skin if she will wear it or if she just handles it. I

am usually able to get dance costumes from recitals and such for a dollar or

two. So if she wont wear them its not big deal if she opts to drag it around the

house. And my nearly 2 yr old will generally use them as dress ups. Amy has yet

to work out why Kailyn likes to put other peoples clothes shoes and hats on.

Such as a little nurses uniform we got her . Amy does not even understand and

will tell Kailyn you baby not nurse. And gets very upset so we can only play

dress ups when she is not at home.

Â

Oh our best buy for Amy on ebay was the V tech gaming console. She loves that

she can make it do things to her will. Its not always how the game is meant to

be played but it works for her. Especially the game with letters and numbers.

She also likes games without characters that are on tv. We got her the dora game

and she didnt like it cause Dora is a tv not a game. Even though the game is

played on the tv Amy had them seperate in her mind and so they will stay.

Â

Again my recommendation for the day is ebay ebay ebay lol

,

I'm with you there! LOL I do lots of buying and selling on ebay, though most

of my buying recently has been at local thrift stores and goodwills, not

always but some great deals can be found there too.

For clothes we don't have as bad of a problem, there hasn't been stuff that

she just won't wear, at this point she usually couldn't care less as to what

I put on her and she often won't give her choice if I try to give her one.

But 99% of her wardrobe is Gymboree.... not as pricy as Hanna (we have

gotten some of that too but not often) but still soft and comfy... most of

it at least and rarely have I had a stain I couldn't get out with it and it

lasts longer than the stuff I could buy elsewhere.

Now I still can't afford to buy Gymboree new (or at least not at the retail

store - especially since there isn't one real close by) but I belong to a

Yahoo group for mom's addicted to Gymboree and I can buy gently used items

at a fantastic deal as well as can re-sell the stuff that ends up not

working for us. Often when others score great deals on clearance they'll

pass those deals on to others so I am able to get some New With Tags stuff

at a huge discount on RV as well.

Most of my Amys clothes are pumpkin patch. Because 1 its good quality and doesnt

lose its shape with Amys pulling and tugging at it 2 the materials she normally

happy to wear including the denim which is softer than others we have found and

3 she loves the bright colors.

Â

I was lucky to get her a Pumpkin Patch dress on ebay during our winter time. The

dress was last years Summer collection and the recommended retail was well over

$100 I would never be able to afford that but someone got it as a gift it didnt

fit or something and they sold it on ebay.. I got it for $7 so now its away for

Christmas as its a festive sort of berry type print on it.

Â

Especially the same with good name brand toys such as fisher price leapstar and

others. I hate paying $50 for a toy for Amy to have a melt down and watch it

smash on the floor. The same toysÂ I am lucky enough to get on ebay for $5 or

$10. I think parents who have the issue of secondhand goods would do good to

have a look at how much it would cost us to replace things if we didnt have ebay

or thrift shops as well. I know with my 3 kids I would be broke lol
