A guy I know is buying and selling infant gear. People in good neighborhoods sell expenive cribs, high chairs, very expensive toys etc on Craigslist and other places for next to nothing. Often it's things they got as gifts so they don't appreciate the cost of the items. Other people in less expensive neighborhoods are willing to pay 80% of new cost for items that are lightly used. So an $800 crib can be bought for $50.00 from people who want you to disassemble and remove it, then flipped for $500 or $600 a few days later to new parents. He is in the process of finding a 'showroom' and is making good money with virtually zero investment.
