Is anyone going to this? I'm debating whether to sell my maternity clothes here due to the fees, but if there will be a lot of people attending would do it gladly. TIA.

Stay 'n play as in you go there, the wee ones play supervised by someone else or by you? And they do a drop-off creche without you having to book a whole term? This sounds interesting! yeah, I've been making use of the stay'n'play with my little group of mates - you go along, the kids go and play in a supervised area, while you sit on the sofas drinking tea and doing your best to ignore them... just like at home really, but less clearing up! Yup, creche is on a phone up and see basis. 50aed per hour. The Stay'n'Play is 40, I think, but they've got half price septemer offer!

Where and when is this event? Thanks. 29 September at al Fattan in the Marina per the flyer. No idea where that is. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=136116933152539&set=o.247427925293147&type=1&theater it's actually int eh new Al Fattan Office building which is on the marina side of the really tall Al Fattan Towers (where Frankies, Wagamama's et al is). It's the huge rust-coloured building you see from the road (the marina road, not The Walk road). 1st floor. It's actually a great place to go have a reccie anyway - holds a nursery, creche (24h advance warning drop-off) and stay'n'play (so you stay, while the kids play) and then afternoons and evenings are handed over to classes - DD started Kids Kung Fu there yesterday and I've been trying out their intensati and tai chi... oh, and they do kids birthdays (there, that should get me a free pass or 5!)

Thanks Nutty, that's great. I want to go to that one! DC, not exactly. It's 200 dh to sell 50 items, then 150 dh per 50 items after that. The great part is that you just drop the stuff off - they do the selling and money collection - and they return it to you if it doesn't sell. You don't even have to go. As for pricing, they said they would "adjust" if you're too optimistic.

Don't worry, I laughed when I tried them on. Who was I kidding?! ETA: Anyway, so it's a flat fee of 200dhs to sell anything there, right? <em>edited by DubaiCat on 22/09/2011</em>

I have no clue but I'd like to know! Mind you, a few of the things I was planning on selling are new because I (ahem) underestimated the size of my butt. lol! [sorry, shouldn't laugh - we've all been there!'>

Maybe I'm completely wrong on this, but what kind of prices do second-hand clothes command here? I'm too used to 5-25aed per item in UK charity shops!

Ah, OK - so it's a flat fee of 200dhs for a table? I thought it might be like eBay where you pay a fee based on the final selling price or a fee per item.

They're not too high, 200 dh, certainly not what you'd pay at a consignment shop, but dubizzle is free... Of course, then you have to sell them yourselves, right??? Anyone going? If I weren't done with babies I would have loved this, too bad they didn't do this 2 years ago.
