CPSC Releases Handbook for Resale Stores and Product Resellers

The CPSC has just released a 28 page PDF document to help sellers of used children’s products understand the CPSIA and existing regulations:

CPSC Handbook for Resale Stores and Product Resellers

While it’s directed at the sale of used products, it certainly contains more “digestible” information on the CPSIA then most of government publications.

In their own words:

“

The purpose of this Handbook is to help you to identify the types of products that are affected and to understand how to comply with the law, so you can keep unsafe products out of the hands of consumers. Consumers who regularly buy used products may also find this information helpful in avoiding products that could harm them or their family.

”

It’s been a busy week at the CPSC, as this also comes on the heels of a recent stay of enforcement for “Youth Recreational Off-Highway Vehicles” and President Obama filling new CPSC Posts.

Take a look, let us know what you think, and keep updated in our CPSC Center!
