Second-hand baby & kids in New York typically sells for $4 to $540. Brand and how recent the model is set most of the price, and completeness sets the rest. A travel system with its adapters, raincover and footmuff is worth far more than the chassis and seat alone.

Buying baby & kids in New York
New York apartments are small and most people do not own a car, and those two facts decide the whole second-hand market here.
Families pass this on within a few streets more than any other category, often before it is ever listed publicly. Supply arrives in waves as each stage is finished with, so timing and being nearby matter more than hunting for the lowest price.
What to check in person
Find the date stamp moulded into the plastic and work out the real age, since these items have expiry dates that owners forget and buyers rarely ask about. Check every fabric part comes off for washing and is actually all there.
Collecting it in New York
It needs a car boot rather than a bag, so agree somewhere you can actually stop for a few minutes. That is easier away from the centre than in it.
Almost everything changes hands on the subway or on foot, so agree a station and a time rather than an address. For furniture, the question that decides the sale is which floor and whether there is an elevator — ask it before you agree a price, not when you arrive.
Selling your baby & kids in New York free
Leases turn over constantly and moving day here means whole apartments emptied at once. The supply of used furniture is effectively continuous rather than seasonal, which is why prices stay reasonable even for good pieces.
State the manufacture date and confirm it has never been in an accident, and say so plainly if you cannot vouch for its whole history. Gather the raincover, adapters and instruction booklet together, since a complete set is what commands the better price. Steady all year; second-hand supply rises as each cohort outgrows a stage.
Peer-to-peer payment apps dominate private sales, and buyers will usually offer one before they offer cash. Sales tax does not apply to a private sale between individuals.
