FAQs
How are prices determined?
Both our selling and buy-back prices are based upon the current Craigslist and garage sale markets and may not consistently reflect retail prices. How often do you post new merchandise? Most garage sales take place on Saturday. Pictures and information about new merchandise will be posted on the site on Sundays or Mondays during the spring, summer, and fall. Acquisitions will slow down during the winter months. Do you check merchandise for recalls? We do our best to research our products and provide useful information to our customers. However, we make no guarantees. It is possible we could miss something. This is why we always stress that you do your due diligence. If you should discover that one of our products was recalled, we want to know. We will gladly refund your full purchase price and dispose of the product. We deal in name brand merchandise from reputable companies with customer service representatives who are usually very helpful. Please do not hesitate to call them directly if you have a question. What is your refund policy? We are happy to refund the full purchase price within three days of purchase if you are dissatisfied for any reason. After three days, we will offer a refund only in cases of product recall. Are there any products you do not carry? We do not plan to carry car seats, strollers, cribs or other furniture. We also will not carry products that are difficult to clean or store. Are your products tailored to a specific age group? We cater to children through the preschool years, but our focus is on the ages of 4 months to 2 years. We find most parents receive sufficient baby gifts to get them through the newborn stage. At about 4 months of age, babies become more active and interested in their world and parents look for new products to entertain and stimulate their little ones. When sticker shock sets in and gift cards run out, it’s time to turn to Dee Dee Buys! Are batteries ever included in the price? Sometimes. Toys that are purchased with batteries are sold with the same batteries. Can I request a specific product for Dee Dee to buy? We love hearing from our customers about favorite items and are interested in what types of merchandise are in demand. However, finding a specific product is not always possible. By its nature, garage sale shopping is very random. You never know what you may find, when you may find it, or if you will find it in good condition at a good price. We are always looking for great bargains so, by all means, let us know what you like! Can I sell to Dee Dee? From time to time, I have customers ask if I am interested in purchasing baby items from them. Unfortunately, my storage space is limited, so I have to balance out what I have room for with what is in demand at any given time. I also usually tell folks that they will make more money by selling to consignment shops, on Craigslist, or holding their own garage sales. I pay very little for my merchandise and only buy when I can get something for a ridiculously cheap price. This is the only way I can keep my prices under those of consignment shops. Occasionally, I’ll buy from a customer if an item is really in demand, in great condition, and I can purchase it for no more than 15% of retail. That doesn’t happen too often, but I always appreciate my customers thinking of me. Who are your customers? We cater to new parents, of course, but we can also help grandparents or others who will occasionally need to care for a baby in their home. Purchasing an item from us and then selling it back to us is essentially the same as renting it indefinitely. Do you deliver? No, not at this time. Where do I pick up my purchase? Plainsboro, NJ |
