Sweet Repeats Seller News

Please check all carseats for any recalls.  Click here for the website. For all children’s items CHECK HERE.    Click on “Child Products (not toys)” and “Toys” and look at the list for any products you are selling.

If you plan to sell a crib, you must be able to provide manufacturer and model information. Crib recalls are common as they can be very dangerous to infants if defective. While we ask you to check for recalls, many cribs don’t even have labels or model numbers. We will not accept cribs that can not be identified.

Also, please be prepared to set up the crib when you drop off; and don’t forget the tools!

The CPSC has issued a stay on the enforcement of the CPSIA.  While this is a good thing for many many manufacturers, this does not effect us directly. Again, they have stated that the rules and limits are still in place, the enforcement will not come for at least a year.  Sellers are still prohibited from selling recalled toys and children’s items and those with lead levels exceeding the limits – however, they acknowledge that this is difficult to determine without testing and certification, which they do not require resellers to perform.  Confused?  Good, you’re normal.

As you may be aware, there is a new federal law that imposes very stringent standards for the sale or resale of children’s products.  We have asked all sellers to abide by the new federal law in providing products for sale, and we have endeavored to exclude items from the sale that the Consumer Product Safety Commission considers to be at a higher risk for containing lead.  The federal law does not require Sweet Repeats to certify that the products sold are lead-free and phthalate-free, but in an abundance of caution, we want all buyers to know that we do not certify that the products sold at Sweet Repeats are lead-free or phthalate-free.

Welcome to Sweet Repeats 2009!   Registration opens February 1, so its time to start cleaning out those kids’ closets and figuring out what they’ve outgrown.  Once you register, you can start your inventory or transfer from a previous sale.

Visit this page often to find out the latest info and answered questions about selling with Sweet Repeats.  New this season, we will lock the system to any new inventory once our total inventory hits 16,000.  Therefore, we will update this page with the inventory total.   During the 2 weeks prior to the sale, the inventory skyrockets on an hourly basis.

We will also be updating you on the new Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, as it applies to us and as it changes.  There are some items we are prohibiting from the sale due to this law, such as children’s jewelry, so we will provide as much information as possible so that we will all remain within the guidelines of this law.

So Welcome! get registered and visit here often.
