Many people insist that they buy everything brand new for when their first child is born – I know I did, and I also remember how at the time we could least afford brand new equipment. There are some areas though where using a pre owned item can be an improvement over buying new. One such area is with used baby cribs. My brother in law was temporarily out of work when his first child was born, so buying a new crib was out of the question. He set about renovating a used crib that was given to him by an ex co worker. I can honestly say that I have never seen anything more beautiful than when he had finished, The love and care that he put in to creating his baby’s crib was more than you could ever get from buying a crib from new.
