CPSC Guidelines and Recal Information:When buying or selling previously owned items, you should always check to make sure that the item does not have a recall first. A good place to check is www.cpsc.gov/index.html - U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. In February 2009, new requirements of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) take effect. Manufacturers, importers and retailers are expected to comply with the new Congressionally-mandated laws. Beginning February 10, 2009, childrens products cannot be sold if they contain more than 600 parts per million (ppm) total lead. Certain childrens products manufactured on or after February 10, 2009 cannot be sold if they contain more than 0.1% of certain specific phthalates or if they fail to meet new mandatory standards for toys. The new law requires that domestic manufacturers and importers certify that childrens products made after February 10 meet all the new safety standards and the lead ban. Sellers of used childrens 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. While CPSC expects every company to comply fully with the new laws resellers should pay special attention to certain product categories. Among these are recalled childrens products, particularly cribs and play yards; childrens products that may contain lead, such as childrens jewelry and painted wooden or metal toys; flimsily made toys that are easily breakable into small parts; toys that lack the required age warnings; and dolls and stuffed toys that have buttons, eyes, noses or other small parts that are not securely fastened and could present a choking hazard for young children.
