If you want to start listing those costumes, start now!!! Hopefully, you have something rare and HTF and people bid like crazy!!
halloween costumes, Gifts Occasions, Infants Toddlers items on eBay.com

The TCP witch costumes from last year and the year before always do really well. Anyone have one of those??

A couple years ago, I went to goodwill and picked up a bunch of costumes real cheap and made a bundle on them!! I think Pokemon went for about $20 that year, and I only paid 2.99 for it. hehe!:happy dance:

I am shocked at how great the prices are going. I'm on the hunt for a size 6 Dorothy (wizard of oz) costume and they are going so high. When shipping is figured in, i can buy new. I was hoping to find a steal.

right now, I'm finding the best time to BUY, is on a weekend afternoon. I've been after a Gameboy for my dd, (I keep getting outbid cuz I"m so cheap LOL) and I notice that the auctions that are ending on the weekend days are going for MUCH less than the ones that end at night or during the week. I guess alot of people aren't online much during the weekend.

I've got a couple of costumes I was thinking about putting on eBay. One is by Tom Arma and its' a Pig costume size 6 - 12 months. The other costume is a Kangaroo. It's really heavy (be nice and warm for trick or treating) the size on it says Medium but there are no other tags on it. Would fit a child ages 7 - 9 I'd guess. It's the quality of a Tom Arma. I also have the Tom Arma skunk costume my son wore last wear. I don't know why but I want to keep it. He looked so cute in it!!
I can't get over what people will pay for costumes for their kids. All of my costumes were hand-me-downs. Kids wear them for 2 hours and then that's it.
I was thinking about listing these closer to the end of September. I thought more people would be thinking about Halloween then.

I listed my daughter's Supergirl costume from last year on Tuesday(You know, the one I looked all over town for because she *swore* she wanted to be nothing but Supergirl, paid $20 for when I finally found one in her size, and she wore it for 1/2 an hour in the house before changing into last year's unicorn costume?). It's selling for $20.50, and there are still five and a half days left on the auction!

I know I know, I totally screwed up and missed the back to school uniforms. Now I really need to list the halloween costumes. I have several that I am going to list. Most are Disney. I pick them up at yard sales all year long and then list them in late September and early October. I am going to make it a goal to get them listed this weekend. Now if I could just get over this cold .
