Want to dress your baby in designer baby clothes, but don't think you have the budget to do so? Think again.
Getting your hands on designer baby clothes at a reasonable price is relatively easy thanks in part to eBay - the world's largest online auction site. Often turned to for the possibility of replacing that broken piece from your grandmother's china set, or finding an obscure birthday gift, eBay is also a great place to find baby clothes.
Most people that use the Internet are familiar with eBay and how to use it. But if this is your first time venturing in to the world of online auction sites, I encourage you to take a look at eBay 101. A plethora of beginners tools put together by our Guide to eBay, Aron Hsiao.

Before you start searching for baby clothes, it's a good idea to have some idea of what you're looking for, and how much you're willing to spend. For some of us, myself included, competitive nature can take over when the bidding war begins, and in my experience, it never ends well. Before you know it, you've spent more for the clothes than you would have if you had just bought them at the store.
Next, search by what you're looking for. Is it any boy clothing in a certain size? Or are you looking specifically for Small Paul clothes? You'll often find that the best deals are found in "lots" of clothing.
Lots are usually a result of another mom cleaning out her baby's closet. Another advantage to purchasing a "lot" of baby clothes is that you may end up with clothes that will fit for the next several seasons - that's a deal you can't beat. Not to mention the fact that given how fast babies grow, many of these clothes still have the tags on them!
When you're browsing the listings, you'll also notice eBay store that have baby clothes for sale.
Many of these are set up like online consignment stores and have a great selection. If you have specific ones that you really like, drop their names over on the message board that talks about eBay baby clothes shops.
Overall, eBay is a great place to shop to find designer discount baby clothes - both new and used. Plus, once your comfortable with it, you might decide to take the plunge and list some of your own stuff on there; it never hurts to make a little money back when it comes to cleaning out the closet.
