KiddieO Mall Offers Online Marketplace Where Parents Can Buy and Sell Kids Used Items

    PLEASANTON, CA, October 15, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- An innovative online marketplace, appropriately known as KiddieO Mall, is giving parents an opportunity to buy and sell kids used clothing and other items online. The Website is a valuable resource for cash-strapped parents looking to stretch their budget and have a positive impact on the environment.

"Parents, mainly moms, can make money by selling their kids' used items to recoup some of the money spent on them," said Trang Le, the founder of KiddieO Mall. "They can also save money by buying quality, brand-name clothes and other things since only the major, national brands can be listed on the site."

KiddieO Mall is distinctly different from similar online marketplaces. Unlike competing Websites that focus on clothing, KiddieO Mall allows parents to sell a broad assortment of kids used items such as toys, books, baby gear and accessories. In addition, KiddieO Mall is simpler, easier and more economical to use than other sites. It charges a low, flat rate of just 3 percent of the listing price and $1 to upgrade to a featured listing.

Besides generating money from selling their kids' items online, parents can collect reward points for their efforts. Each time parents purchase an item on the site, they will earn one point for every dollar spent. They can then redeem their accumulated points for gifts. "Our reward system is what sets us apart from our competition," Le said. "For moms, not only can they save money and make money, but they can also get rewards for themselves."

KiddieO Mall also gives parents an opportunity to practice green habits that can benefit the environment. According to a 2009 report by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, each person in the United States generates 4.34 pounds of solid waste per day. However, KiddieO Mall enables recycled and reused items to gain a new purpose, instead of becoming waste in landfills--which are a significant source of greenhouse gases. Recycling items also saves energy, reduces pollution, conserves resources and helps sustains the environment for future generations.

The recent launch of KiddieO Mall comes at a time when concerns over global warming are causing people to be more environmentally-conscious. In addition, the ongoing recession is straining family budgets, making the notion of buying and selling kids used clothing an appealing option. An online marketplace such as KiddieO Mall is making it easier for parents to not only convert their kids' used clothing into extra cash, but to also give new life to items that might otherwise end up in a landfill.

KiddieO Mall requires no membership or registration fee. For more information about buying and selling kids used items through the online marketplace, please visit www.kiddieomall.com.
