New Government Policy Imposes Strict Standards on Garage Sales Nationwide<\/a><\/p>\n
Americans who slap $1 pricetags on their used possessions at garage sales or bazaar events risk being slapped with fines of up to $15 million, thanks to a new government campaign.<\/p>\n
The “Resale Round-up,” launched by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, enforces new limits on lead in children’s products and makes it illegal to sell any items that don’t meet those limits or have been recalled for any other reason.<\/p>\n

In order to comply, stores, flea markets, charities and individuals selling used goods \u2014 in person or online \u2014 are expected to consult the commission’s 24-page Handbook for Resale Stores and Product Resellers (pdf)<\/a> and its Web site<\/a> for a breakdown of what they can’t sell.<\/p>\n
Violators caught selling anything on the enormous list face fines of up to $100,000 per infraction and up to $15 million for a related series of infractions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
