[quote=Anonymous]My SIL and her husband are of a very different income bracket than my family. They have a history of giving us extremely overpriced gifts that are nice but just not well suited to us and awkwardly expensive. We are much more basic people!

Anyway they just sent us new baby clothes for our child from a pricey pricey brand. Think about $600 worth of clothes, but only a handful of outfits. Including a small lovey type toy that retails for $75 or so. This is crazy to me as we buy our baby clothes mostly from consignment sales and yard sales. I think the most we have ever paid for a baby outfit is probably $15 and that seems quite steep to me.

Anyway we almost never see this branch of the family so they will not really get to see the baby in the clothes. Would it be totally awful of us to sell some of the items? It seems so weird to me to put my baby in a $100 sleeper so they can poop and pee on it. For reference I really want some new jeans for myself and found perfect ones recently but they were $60 so I passed on them. Spending this kind of money on baby clothes seems crazy!

We probably wont sell the items but just curious if it seems horrible to do so. I won't lie - I considered it! [/quote]
