WOW … what a very entitled person she is. How rude of her.
I would have been over the moon excited and thankful for such a wonderful gift. The good thing is that you have lernt that she is not worthy and you are better off selling it and using the proceeds for yourself

Not everyone can afford new things.

wow that is so generous

This is super generous and should have been better appreciated.

How ungrateful is she! That is such a generous offer. I don’t get some people.

I notice that this is a ‘co-worker’ and not a friend – that says it all to me. Not your fault at all, just that I imagine a friend would have been more appreciative of the gift. In my day we didn’t even have baby showers.

Very ungrateful. But I probably would have asked her if she wants it first.

I think that’s very generous and if she didn’t like it she could always sell it herself. Otherwise tell someone to their face you’re not happy rather than tslk bad behind their back.

No way are you in the wrong here. What a shame her values are so twisted.

I think anyone else would have been over the moon to receive it. Even if it wasn’t brand new, it still worked just as well as if it was. I’d probably been a bit of a b***h after she said that, then I would have sold it on Facebook Marketplace and made sure she was around when I told everyone how much I got for it. Some people can be so ungrateful

Not the a#$hole at all. You tried to do something nice and it wasn’t good enough of her. Not to mention she could have sold it later on for bank and she was just rude and disrespectful.

I’m a big fan of reduce, reuse, recycle so think that is an awesome gift and a very generous one.

No definitely not the a**hole, I think even if you’d offered to sell it to her cheap she still would’ve refused, there’s nothing wrong with 2nd hand items especially if you’re complaining about a pricey item. At the end of the day they do the same thing whether it’s new or slightly used.

Given the value of even a second hand SNOO bassinet I think she should be grateful for the gift. If she did not want it, she could have easily sold it herself and then used the money to buy something else.

Not at all. I would be ecstatic to be gifted that if that is the item I really wanted. She is just an ungrateful person and doesn’t deserve anything. I feel sorry for her baby and hope that her child doesn’t grow up with the same ungrateful attitude she has. What a kind gesture you wanted to do for her. You would do well to sell it and get some money back on it and use if for something else.

I personally don’t even think gifts should be expected and you should be grateful for anything received! Especially when she never commented on not liking the idea of second hand, just that she still couldn’t afford it.

Geez people are so ungrateful these days

Considering how she mentioned it many times that she wanted one, it’s rather ungrateful. I doubt she would have been happy with one $15 baby outfit she mentioned either

I can understand both points of view. I offered a close family member my daughter’s cot and mattress as she had grown out of it. The recipient was happy with the cot but didn’t want the mattress. I understood her concerns and there wasn’t any issue.

that was a very generous gift if they cost $900. you have to learn to accept gifts and be grateful even if you do not like it. it is the thought that counts.
