Judging by the huge number of items for sale on eBay and other second hand toy sales websites, it’s clear that there’s a strong market for good, pre-owned toys, nursery items and children’s clothing. Used toys or other items aren't necessarily worn out – more likely a child has just grown out of them and is moving onto the next stage of their development. This means it's possible to grab some real bargains if you know the right places to look.
Whilst some toys are not made to last very long, others from reputable manufacturers can last a family of children and even be handed on to future generations. If a second hand toy has lost some of its accessories, it’s not necessarily worthless - as long as it’s still safe with no broken parts that are likely to injure a young child, there’s no reason why these second hand toys can’t be sold on.
Children's second hand clothing can often be a great bargain – we all know how quickly kids grow up, yet their clothes are rarely worn out and can be useful for other children. The same can be said for pre-owned nursery furniture like cots, highchairs or walkers – these can be expensive when bought new, but a real bargain when bought used.
