Hello everyone,
My grandmother used the PureWick catheter system, and I purchased several boxes for her. I have 12 unopened boxes left. Each catheter is individually wrapped and sealed, and the boxes are completely unused. Expires 08/28/2028.
I’ve seen these sell on Amazon for around $500 per box (sometimes more), which is about what I originally paid. I’m trying to sell each box of 30 for $119-$140 just to recoup some of the cost and help cover other medical expenses.
I’ve tried listing them on eBay, but my listings keep getting taken down, even though they are new and sealed. I’m not sure if it’s due to policy restrictions or user reports. I also don’t think individuals can just sell on Amazon without approval.
Does anyone have suggestions on where else I could sell these legally and safely? Any advice or experiences would really be appreciated. Thank you.

We had great luck selling some on facebook marketplace a few months ago. Gentleman showed up who was taking care of his wife and insisted on giving us more than we were asking because he " knew how much they cost". We had greatly discounted them as we had an open box. All the remaining wicks were unopened.

I'm seeing that many public commerce forums now have policies against selling medical supplies and devices, regardless of whether they've ever been used. Ads that get posted are taken down. You may want to consider donating them to a facility and then getting a receipt for the value of the donated item.
