The only reason why we didn't buy our CDs used was because they hold their value so well that the used ones sell for nearly the same price as brand new ones! So, clearly there are many people who don't perceive an "ick factor."

Yup. We will buy used clothes for all of us, if we see something we like. I don't buy used underwear for the adults or kids mostly because it's so cheap to buy new. Most sellers take really good care of their CDs.

I haven't bought any used yet but I definitely would if the right deal came up. Question for the people who said they don't trust the cleaning process in general for cloth diapers: do you throw out every piece of clothing that gets dirty when your LO has a leaky diaper/blowout/potty training accident and pee or poop gets on it? Or do you wash it and let them wear it again? Just curious!
-
No the thought of it grosses me out. But, I don't even like used clothing to be honest. If you're going to use them for more than one child of yours, I personally would be justified in buying new.
@xInfinity: I pretty much throw away anything that had more than just a little spot of poop on it.

These are great responses! It does help me to understand where DH is coming from, but I still feel as though I would buy them used. Maybe with a professional cleaning he may feel better. It's not a health issue, otherwise nobody could use CD. Although like you guys have said, if I shop good sales, I may be able to get them just as cheap. Perhaps once I get a few different kinds that way and decide what works best for our LO, DH won't be so weirded out by it! I think you are right, the more you do it, the less gross it seems.
ETA: I haven't heard of gdiapers before. I did a few quick searches and they definitely sound like something to consider! If the insert gets changed, then it's like a fresh pair each time. DH wouldn't have to worry about it touching another child's business as much. Interesting!

Wouldn't bother me - there's nothing a bleach soak doesn't kill.
Besides - think of how many blow outs kids have. If you buy any used clothes, it most likely has had poop on it.

@Mrs. Peanut: flips have disposable inserts as well, I felt it defeated the purpose of a cloth diaper cost wise though.
