She's the owner of a seasonal consignment sale and this would have shut her down. I went to www.cpsc.gov and got this clarification:<BR/><BR/>"The new law requires that domestic manufacturers and importers certify that children’s products made after February 10 meet all the new safety standards and the lead ban. Sellers of used children’s products, such as thrift stores and consignment stores, are not required to certify that those products meet the new lead limits, phthalates standard or new toy standards."<BR/><BR/>It sounds as if sellers of used goods are exempts? I know that the big issue was whether or not the product or any part of it could be put in a kid's mouth.<BR/><BR/>This is definitely something to fight!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10849113786235200423noreply@blogger.com
