CPSIA- GOODWILL removes KIDS’ CLOTHES TOYS BOOKS PRE-1985! KPTM FOX42 Omaha 02-09-09

admin — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 16:31:40 +0000

Goodwill is gleaning through children’s items that they will allow to be sold in their stores per new regulations now in place with the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act which went into affect February 10, 2009. A rep with a large notebook explained that Goodwill has always been proactive in pulling recalled childrens’ items. At least this thrift store chain appears to be using some commons sense and at least in Omaha, Nebraska, isn’t making it policy to not sell anything for children!

CPSIA- HANDMADE BABY BOOTIES ILLEGAL?! Selecta TOYS GONE- TULSA 12-26-08

admin — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 19:34:13 +0000

Tiffany Bjorlie who owns Lundeby’s Ecobaby knows all too well how the CPSIA is affecting what items she carries in her Tulsa shop. She explains how Selecta has pulled their eco-friendly toys from the US market. And toys are not the only items that could run scarce. That sweet handmade dress for your little princess or 100% organic cotton onesie for your bouncing baby boy may be on the “extinct” handmade list as well due to stringent testing that will go into force per the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act on February 10, 2009. AND HANDMADE BABY BOOTIES if not TESTED will be ILLEGAL!
