At Babymint, we believe secondhand shopping should feel just as exciting - and trustworthy - as buying new. Whether you’re listing your baby and kids’ items for sale, or browsing for great deals, understanding how we define product conditions helps everyone have a smooth, happy experience.
Below are the four product conditions you’ll see on Babymint. These definitions are designed to help sellers list items accurately and buyers know exactly what they’re getting.
Brand New
- What it means: The item has never been used and is in perfect condition.
- For Sellers: Choose this if your item is untouched, with tags attached or still in sealed packaging.
- For Buyers: Expect a product just like you’d find in a retail store, but at a better price.
- Examples:
- Clothing with original tags
- Toys still sealed in their boxes
- Baby gear in unopened packaging
Open Box
- What it means: The item is new and unused, but the original packaging has been opened or tags removed. All original accessories should be included.
- For Sellers: Select this if your item hasn’t been used but is no longer sealed or tagged.
- For Buyers: You’re getting a brand-new item, possibly at a bigger discount, because it’s out of the box.
- Examples:
- A stroller assembled but never used outdoors
- Clothing tried on but never worn out
- Baby monitor removed from packaging but unused
Very Good
- What it means: The item has been gently used and shows minimal wear. It looks great and works perfectly.
- For Sellers: Use this if your item is lightly used with no major flaws. Be sure to describe any small signs of use.
- For Buyers: Expect high-quality items with only tiny, barely noticeable signs of previous use.
- Examples:
- Clothing worn a few times, still vibrant with no stains
- Toys with slight surface scuffs
- Baby gear showing minimal handling
Good
- What it means: The item shows clear signs of use but is still fully functional.
- For Sellers: Choose this if your item has visible wear but is in working order. Describe all flaws honestly.
- For Buyers: Great for practical shoppers looking for good deals on items that may not look perfect but work just fine.
- Examples:
- Clothing with light fading or small stains
- Toys with moderate scratches
- Baby gear that’s a bit worn but fully operational
