At Wee-cycle Mart Children's Consignment Sale, we ask our consignors take responsibility when it comes checking their items against the recall list! It is utterly impossible for us to check 25,000+ items in just 2 days to see if they have been recalled; therefore, we ask each consignor to check their items BEFORE tagging them. This is VERY important!
There are several ways to do that:
- Go to http://www.cpsc.gov/ directly and look for your items.
- You can also go to websites that list recalls like http://www.consumeraffairs.com/recalls04/aaarecalls_child.htm or http://babyproducts.about.com/od/recallsandsafety/a/prodrecalls.htm
- you can google your items and if it's been recalled usually the post will come up about it.
We understand that this could be a pain to do and you may be tempted to skip this step in the consigning process, however, we all are moms and understand that our kids safety is our top priority!
If an item was recalled, you probably don't want YOUR kid at risk and you sure would not want a new moms to put her baby or child at risk either! Do YOUR part and check the recall list often! It's also for your own safety! Several sites offer sign ups to receive recalls notices to your inbox to make it even easier to stay up on recalls for you and your family!
Many items that have been recalled have "fixes" free from the manufacturer or offer refunds.
Thank you for understanding and as a shopper should you ever see something on the floor at any Wee-cycle Mart Children's Consignment Sales that has been recalled, PLEASE bring it to a volunteer's attention and we will pull it from the floor til we can verify that it is OK to sell!
