I also tried to list on ebay and craigslist not knowing that they weren't allowed. I listed them in the auto section to be used as rags and my ad was removed. So far the only place I found was at flea markets to resell the used diapers. I will check out some of the sites recommended. But if you are interested you can check out her site at <a href="http://www.diaper-eze.com" rel="nofollow">www.diaper-eze.com</a>. Thanks for the info!

Since you are in France, though, I'd recommend checking out community.babycenter.com. There is a Cloth Diaper Swapping group on there where you can sell your diapers. It's not the public one, but rather a private one. Request membership, you'll be in, then post info. on your diapers along with a pic. I wouldn't think you'd have a problem selling them on there. Good luck! : ) <abbr><em>Morgan´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AdventuresInDiapering/~3/501818302/ideas-for-keeping-mothers-journal.html" rel="nofollow">Ideas for Keeping a Mother's Journal</a></abbr></em> Well, if you lived in the U.S., I would say definantly check out Craigslist.com!!!

You can still buy second-hand cloth diapers on eBay Germany. We bought Popolini Ultrafit without any problems. We had been told they would be too big for a new born baby, so we bought some for later. So maybe check out eBay Germany? <abbr><em>Frank´s last blog post..<a href="http://www.beblogger.org/index.php/caitlin-s-first-photoshoot" rel="nofollow">Caitlin's First Photoshoot</a></abbr></em> Good news!

Except these are the really nice fitted ones, so I was reluctant to cut them up. I love flat diapers for cleaning however, and still use the ones from my first son as rags on a regular basis. @Jennifer, crafting them into something else is a good idea.

The problem is that the market isn't as big- cloth diapers aren't as accepted here in France as they are in the US. But it's a good idea! @Terra,
