Buyer Beware
This may be a no-brainer for some but I thought I’d post this anyway…
I recently bid on and won a set of 10 used Fuzzi Bunz cloth diapers on ebay since we’ve decided to go cloth. I also bought a bunch of hemp inserts to go with them from the same seller. The description said that they were in excellent condition but may have some small stains. Well, I received them last weekend and I will tell you that they most definitely were NOT in good condition and all but a few were more than “slightly” stained. You may say “Ewwww, USED cloth diapers?” But isn’t that part of the whole purpose? Reusing instead of creating more? And, in order to try cloth diapering out, I had bought one used Fuzzi Bunz on ebay which WAS in excellent condition so I had no reason to think that these wouldn’t be that way. And since Fuzzi Bunz are so expensive (but soooo easy!), buying them used on ebay saved me at least $4 a diaper. If they were in excellent condition, they would have been well worth the money. That’s a $40 savings on the 10 that I bought! Well, I contacted the seller and she is going to refund my money. Since I paid through PayPal it is still processing. We’re waiting for funds to be in her account. I won’t post her username unless my refund doesn’t go through…
In the mean time I’ve found another brand (Bum Genius) that I’m going to try. Unfortunately there aren’t many of them on ebay so I’m buying them new. They’re the same price as Fuzzi Bunz but they’re a bit different and sound like they may be a little bit better for Tater Tot. So I’m still waiting…
