Okay, I just wanted to bump this up. I still have the Mia Moda Libero, and have actually been using it a bit - it's grown on me since I bought it. ;) My husband has given up on trying to stop my stroller addiction.

If anyone is interested, I will sell the stroller for $70 locally or $110 shipped. Also, if anyone is interested in trading for a different stroller, or maybe some sort of cool baby gear (like a Svan bouncer, or something equally "cool"), let me know.

I have a Mia Moda Libero that I bought and my dh hates it (it's too big). It's a neat stroller, lots of cool features, but I've since bought two more strollers (a Bugaboo Bee and a Mutsy Spider).

I just wanted to post this in case someone local (to the Seattle area) was interested. I checked shipping charges, and according to the online shipping calculators this would cost as much as $60+ to ship to the east coast, and you could just get a new one for that. (it weighs 22.5 pounds)

I'll post my ad that I have on craigslist in a reply to this thread with pictures.

My membership expires in 2 days, so my post might get deleted after that since I have only been a member for 8 months - I just wanted to check to see if anyone local was interested in these strollers.

Here is some more information on the Mia Moda stroller:

Mia Moda Libero Stroller - Tempest - $100

I have a Mia Moda Libero stroller (color is called "tempest") that I bought and only used once. I was trying to find a stroller that would be small enough to just leave in the trunk of my compact car all the time without taking up too much space. The stroller fit in the trunk, but there wasn't a lot of room left for groceries. I am used to my other stroller (a Quinny Zapp) which is tiny when it's folded up.

The Mia Moda Libero has some cool features that I really like. The handles can be adjusted, it is very easy to fold, it stands unassisted when it's folded up, it has a carrying handle on the side, the seat reclines quite far (great for an infant) and it is compatible with the Viva infant car seat to work as a travel system. It is VERY padded all over and seems like it would be very comfortable for occupants. It has big foam wheels - no flat tires - and it has a one touch brake. It has an adjustable leg rest, 5 point harness, toddler bar, canopy with a viewing window, a small pouch on the back for keys, shocks, and a nice aluminum frame.

My two favorite parts about the stroller are the great manueverability/steering and the fact that it comes with a nice weather boot/foot muff.

This is a really neat stroller with a lot of features that you usually only find on higher end strollers. It is much nicer and more unique than the mammoth Graco/Evenflo travel system strollers. I have never seen another one of these at the zoo or aquarium, and it also has a much smaller "footprint" than a Graco Quattro or similar stroller. Because of the independent, 360 degree rotating wheels in the front, it steers much better than those strollers - it is comparable to my Zapp. It has shocks on all 4 wheels which makes it great for bumpy sidewalks, grass, curbs, etc...

Please note, the stroller had a flaw/factory defect when I received it that has been repaired. When I first received it, one side of the seat would not stay upright all the way. I contacted the company that sold it to me to have it fixed, and they offered for me to keep it and have my money refunded. They said that by the time they paid for return shipping to the factory, the cost of repairs, and then the shipping back to me, it would be more cost efficient for me to just keep it and try to get it repaired locally (after getting a look at shipping costs, I now understand why they wanted to just refund me!). It is now repaired and 100% fully functional (the problem was with two little springs that had to be shortened), but I bought another stroller (okay, actually 2 strollers, I may have an addiction!) in the mean time so I really don't need this one.

It is in almost perfect condition except for a few scuffs from when I put it together, other than that it is like new and includes the instruction manual and the footmuff.

Mutsy is sold!

Here are some photos of the Mutsy Spider. It is in good condition with a few black scuffs on the hood. It comes with a rain cover that has never been taken out of the package.

Would you be interested in doing a trade on that Libero for a like new Silver Cross POP in black (Think Maclarenish, small umbrella fold with handle, super tall handles for DH.)

Tempting, but I'll have to pass. Part of my "agreement" for getting the Bugaboo Bee was that the other 3 strollers would go (all except the Quinny Zapp, which my dh loves). ;)

I checked shipping for the Mutsy Spider, and it looks like I can ship it for around $30 through USPS (it's cheaper than the Mia Moda because of its smaller dimensions).

If you're interested, it would be $140 shipped for the Mutsy Spider including the rain cover, and if the shipping ends up being lower than $30 then I will refund the difference back to you after I ship.
