What sells here
The UAE has an unusually active second-hand market driven by how often people arrive and leave — relocation sales mean good-quality items turn over quickly and often at well below their age.
Prams, travel systems, nursery furniture and bundles of clothing. Parents buy second-hand heavily because everything is outgrown so fast.
Typical AED price range
Guide range for used baby & kids on WishThrift: £3 to £400 (approximately $4 to $533), depending on condition, brand and completeness. Safety-critical items are the exception to everything else in this category: car seats, cots and carriers should not be passed on if damaged, at any price.
Sterling guide ranges with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026); WishThrift lists in AED here and sellers set their own price.
What listings are live in the United Arab Emirates
Trading is not open in the Emirates yet, so treat this as a reference page: the pricing and the checks below hold, but the listings will appear once sellers here start posting. Once it opens, travel system, pram, stroller are what this category turns over first. See baby & kids listed in our live markets in the meantime, or create a free account and be the first to list one here.
How buying and handover works
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
Domestic courier coverage is quick and cheap by international standards, and most of the population is within a short drive of everyone else.
The Emirates is a pre-launch market, so this is what a seller here should expect when it opens. The population turns over unusually fast, and that shapes the whole market: relocation sales put nearly-new furniture, appliances and cars on the market at heavy discounts, and the best stock appears in concentrated bursts as people leave. Distances are short and courier coverage is quick and cheap, so postage is rarely the obstacle it is elsewhere. Expect buyers to move fast and to expect a reply the same day.
Condition is seller-described against five grades and nobody inspects it for you — what each means. Manufacture date and model number, moulded into the plastic or on a label under the seat, and the recall lists, which are free to search.

The commonest mistake sellers make here: Not finding the manufacture date. It is moulded into the plastic or on a label under the seat, and for most of this category it is the first thing a buyer asks.
