Collectors change directions, downsize and wish their treasures to find new homes, earning them money to pursue new passions. Reuse puts the flexibility of cash in the consignors pocket and a smile on the face of the new owner. Only when a toy ceases to be safe or has lost its play value does it need to be 'recycled'. Kids do it. Parents do it.
Grandparents do it.
Collectors do it. Teachers and day-care providers do it.
