Second-hand kids’ clothing in Ayr typically sells for £5 to £35 (about $7 to $47). The very small sizes turn over fastest because babies pass through them in weeks, leaving barely worn stock. School uniform answers to term dates instead, and the same items are worth noticeably more in August than in November.
Buying kids’ clothing in Ayr
Ayr is a seaside town on the Firth of Clyde with a long sandy beach, a racecourse that holds the biggest jump race in Scotland, and a place in national affection as the county of the poet Robert Burns, who was born in the village next to it.
Children’s clothing is outgrown rather than worn out, so it comes onto the local market in genuinely good condition and usually in bundles. Buying a stage at a time from someone a few streets away is far cheaper than buying it new.
What to check in person
Go through a bundle piece by piece rather than accepting a count, since the bottom of a bag is where the tired items sit. Hold pale colours to the light for the food and grass marks that photographs never pick up.
Collecting it in Ayr
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
The beach front and the high street are the landmarks everyone uses and the town is flat and compact. Race days fill the town, so check the fixture list before arranging anything large.
