Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a deadline to ship the box?
To get a free shipping label, please ship the box in the next few months.
Do I have to send in a complete Play Kit?
No. A complete kit (including the Play Guide) will earn you a higher payout, but you can also send a mix of individual Playthings from any kit.
You can also send a partially complete kit, with at least 80% of an original kit's Playthings and its Play Guide. This can be listed as a partial kit for our shoppers, which will earn a higher payout than individual items.
How many Playthings should I send in?
Please pack the box with a minimum of 5 Playthings.
Exceptions can be made if you are sending in one of the Playthings listed here.
How can I maximize my payout?
How is my payout amount determined?
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. Lovevery x GoodBuy Gear’s program follows GoodBuy Gear’s typical seller scale:
Selling price is <$49 - You keep 10%
Selling price is $50-$149 - You keep 40%
Selling price is $150-$249 - You keep 50%
Because each item must be sold separately, this scale applies per item/kit, not as a cummulative of your entire shipment.
How and when do I get paid?
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.
What happens to Playthings you cannot sell?
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.
Do I need to wrap or pad the Playthings?
We recommend padding or wrapping your Playthings so they aren't damaged during transport, especially when there is extra room in the box such that items can move around. We find paper or plastic grocery bags used as filler or wrapping.
Can I send in more than one box?
Yes, you can send in as many boxes as you'd like. Note each box will need more than 5 Playthings and you will need to fill out the form and shipping label generator for each box.
Can I get my Playthings back if they do not sell?
Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate requests to send items back.
Why should I send my Playthings to GoodBuy Gear instead of selling on a peer-to-peer marketplace?
GoodBuy Gear is the most convenient option for busy parents who want to make space in their homes. If you prioritize time and ease, GoodBuy Gear is the way to go. We take care of everything, including inspecting, photographing, pricing, listing, and shipping your Playthings to their new home.
If you want to prioritize higher earnings for your Playthings, we absolutely encourage you to utilize a peer-to-peer marketplace and manage the resale of your Playthings directly.
Can I send in a Play Gym?
Yes! Note that your payout will be dependent on how many detachable activity toys and card sets you include in the shipment.
