 WELCOME TO THE BARGAIN WATCHER!
CPSIA legal requirements have been clarified for
those in the re-sale industry and it appears some exemptions from lead
and chemical testing for children’s items have been made. It is still very
important for sale owners and consignors to review the restrictions regarding lead
limits and recalled items. Go to http://www.cpsc.gov for full details.
THE BARGAIN WATCHER website celebrates its first birthday this year. The Bargain Watcher has actually been around since 1992, but the automated version was launched in January 2008. It seems to be a great success so far! In one year over 2000 users have registered and over 300 sale ads have been placed. Your support is appreciated!
SPRING CONSIGNMENT SALE SEASON has been very busy. With the economic situation we are all facing, consignment sales are a great resource for both buyers and sellers. If you haven’t tried consigning before, now’s a great time to jump in!
Speaking of these hard economic times, The Bargain Watcher will be offering FREE YARD SALE ADS for 2009! All sales are searchable by month, date, title, location, and keyword. Also for our home educating friends in the community, there are several CURRICULUM CONSIGNMENT SALES posted. Search for "Curriculum" in the sale title bar to locate these sales at a glance. Tell your friends! And don’t forget the WATCHLIST – you may find someone looking for something you have to sell. It’s a great place for shoppers and sellers to connect.
Have a blessed 2009, and remember…It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. (Deuteronomy 31:8)
