Is this place ok to buy from?

[safety4harp]

Hi all. I just found an awesome deal on a stroller on this website. I'm just wondering if they're reputable before I buy. Has anyone purchased anything from them?

:thumbsup: or :thumbsdown: ?

Thanks!!

I double posted this (in comm member too), is that ok? Don't want to break form etiquette. Forgive me, I'm still new to all of this.

You can look them up on the BBB website. Here is a link to what I found http://newjersey.bbb.org/WWWRoot/Report.aspx?site=89&bbb=0221&firm=1005551.
Hope it helps :)

You might want to check this store out for stroller deals. Especially Maclaren's.

I didn't even make it to their stroller section but I'd be a little worried buying stuff from a company that is selling for full price carseats that haven't been made in years and are probably close to expiration if not already.:thumbsdown: They had a boatload of century combo boosters and the evenflo cozy carry and apollo.

I bought a Peg Perego from them about 2 years ago. No issues at all. Haven't ordered anything else since.

I'm leery of any business that has a misused z in its name.

Thanks everyone. The babye-store has great deals!! Of course, the color I want is out of stock. Oh well, may just settle for another for that price!

Thanks again.:)

Babydealz is QUESTIONABLE. They sell grey-market strollers and are not authorized retailers of the products they sell.. Your stroller will NOT have a manufacturer's warranty, instead Babydealz provides a warranty directly themselves. Nobody knows where they get their strollers from, but they're supposedly NOT for the US market. This means that they might not have to meet American safety standards. I personally would not buy from them, but their strollers are probably fine..

The babye store people.. are in the same city as Maclaren.. I think they have a deal with Maclaren clearing the strollers out, or some sort of behind-the-scenes relationship with Maclaren, as well. They started out only selling Maclaren's overstocks.

By the way, there's the new main Shopping forum for discussions like this.

which model were you getting?

[safety4harp]

I wanted the Maclaren Quest (2007 gray and pink). I'm still considering that one, but also looking at the Inglesina Trip. Since DD is long and skinny, I think their lower weight limit would probably be fine.

aww it is too bad you didn't ask this last month..i got my grey/pink quest from that site in early february..it was 149.99

[safety4harp]

bummer, that is too bad!:(

Their fabrics come off quite easily.. you could always buy a stroller now and try to swap fabrics with someone later (lots of times people get girlie strollers, and have another child...with extra parts, y'know..) OR you can go to the Maclaren website and actually buy replacement fabrics (although this is a really expensive option after you've got a really inexpensive Mac!)

The Evenflo Apollos where not made post 2005, so the seats would be 3 years old already and they would only have max 3 years left.
The Centruy seats are most likely near exp if not past it.

Um, pardon me, but what are you talking about? :)

[QuassEE]

Absolutely.. I would hope most people here would know not to buy seats from a non-reputable source... I believe all Century seats expired by December 2007 since Graco bought Century and took over their production by the end of 2001... I don't think any Century seats were produced early 2002, and even if they were they would be expiring December 2008 (Century had all their seats expire in December for some reason..)

Heck, any company selling those seats isn't worth giving your money to--for any product.
