GoodBuy Gear prices an item based on demand, the condition of the item, external third-party data, and historical data we've collected from selling similar items. You can decide if you want to take our recommendation, or set a different price.

We are constantly refining and improving our algorithm to make sure sellers get a fair asking price and buyers get a good buy.
 
You then get paid out a percent of the resale amount:

Above $400   you keep 85% (cash or store credit)

$250 - $399   you keep 75% (cash or store credit)

$150 - $249    you keep 50% (cash or store credit)

$50 - $149    you keep 40% (cash or store credit)

$25 - $49    you keep 10% (store credit only)

<$25     Items not accepted

Because each item must be sold separately, this scale applies per item/kit, not as a cummulative of your entire shipment.

To monitor your sale status and set up payment details, you will need to create a seller account with GoodBuy Gear: here.

You’ll find a list of all your transactions, sales, and product listings with the current status when logged into your account once we have received and processed your item(s). Once your piggy bank has a balance of $5 or more you’ll see 3 ways to cash out your balance:

• • Store Credit (GoodBuy Bucks): they never expire! Your GoodBuy Bucks are issued immediately via email and available for use upon receipt of your code. Payouts must be requested within 365 days.

  • Direct Deposit: connect your bank account using our secure payment system. Payouts take 3-7 days business days to show up in your bank. Payouts must be requested within 365 days.

  • Donation: choose a lucky recipient from our list of non-profit partners to donate your balance to.

There is a 3 day window from when a buyer receives an item to when your payout is available to allow us to honor our buyer guarantee. Fee(s) are deducted from your first sale, or subsequent sale(s) if the first sale does not cover the full pick-up or drop-off service fee. Completed transactions that are available for payout are forfeited after 365 days if they are not claimed.

For items that do not pass our inspection process, we either donate them to families in need and local charities or we recycle and harvest parts where possible.

It's our mission to keep baby and kids gear out of landfills.

SOFT CARRIERS

Soft carriers are pretty durable, so no special attention to packaging is needed. Just be sure to pick a box that's not too big and ensure the box is taped up securely.

STROLLERS / BOUNCERS / BASSINETS / OTHER GEAR

• Disassemble: Remove detachable parts (wheels, seat, canopy, etc.) and place small parts in a sealed bag.

• Fold: Ensure the item is folded to its smallest configuration.

• Wrap fragile components: Use bubble wrap or foam padding to protect things like the frame, wheels, and fabric parts.

• Prepare a sturdy box: Choose a box large enough for the item with extra padding; reinforce the bottom with tape.

• Cushion inside the box: Place a layer of bubble wrap or packing peanuts at the bottom and fill any gaps around the item to prevent movement.

• Seal and label: Tape the box securely, mark it as “Fragile,” and attach the shipping label clearly.
