We hold sales of good quality 'nearly new' baby and children's wear, and nursery equipment in the Spring and Autumn.
Great bargains can be found at our sales and NCT members get in before the public for first picks! Our branch holds some of the biggest and most successful Nearly New Sales in the country - there are often 5000 items or more on sale, so it really is well worth a visit.

Nearly New Sales in North Hertfordshire are very popular, so only a limited number of sellers can sell at each Nearly New Sale to ensure we have sufficient space to display everything. We often have more people wanting to sell than we have space for, and we operate a waiting list in case anyone drops out.
Our sales are ticketed, which in contrast to a table top sale, means you do not need to be present at the sale to sell. You can sell up to 60 items per sale (clothes, toys and equipment - a full guide will be provided once you have registered). You decide the price of each item, which must be a multiple of 50p, and label up your items using the labels provided, as detailed in the guidelines. You must then drop all of the labelled and boxed items at The Priory School on the Saturday before the sale, where it is sorted and prepared for sale by our team of amazing volunteers. Times and details will be provided in advance of the sale.
The NCT Nearly New Sale Principles set out what you can and cannot sell. Please read them carefully. You will be asked to remove any items that do not meet these principles from the sale.
NCT gets 30% of everything you sell, you get back 70%. Reduced commission rates are available for volunteers who help with additional volunteering sessions at the sale!
To volunteer at the sale please complete this form https://forms.gle/EtSetn4kdpRFr1nH9 Remember that all volunteers have early access to the sale and there is reduced commission if you volunteer for the sale or post-sale sessions. Additionally anyone who volunteers for all three sessions will be sent 20 extra seller tickets.
If you have any questions or problems with you registration you can email us at nns.hertsnorth@nct.org.uk We will reply to you as soon as possible; please remember the sale is run by volunteers so there maybe a delay replying to you, particularly with the additional administration that the new registration system may create.
