Thanks for the info. There's one in Wainright according to Canada411 which is the closest to Edmonton when I looked it up. (Although I couldn't tell you exactly where Wainright is. :eek:)

I noticed the recall isn't on the main list page of TC's child safety page yet. Here's hoping that there aren't too many that haven't realized the error. The affected parents are going to be annoyed, I'd hate to be on the receiving end of that return.

We have one in our town, and one in another town I go through for work. I have been in both a few times, and especially lately, but haven't seen any carseats (and believe me, I would have noticed :whistle:) but they do have a lot of other unusual and very odd things....but they are great for kids party favours and cheap games and books!

I saw a 'recall' ad in the local paper too. I hadn't had the time to run down there. Wonder what seat(s) they sold and how much.

If the deal is too good, the parents might not return them, kwim?

Yeah, unfortunately I know exactly what you mean. Same reason lots of parents who buy US seats and have them shipped here not realizing that they aren't certified for use in Canada and are illegal often don't return the seats.

I don't know about other areas, but we've seen enough of an increase in US seats in this area that police are checking for the CMVSS stickers at stops now. Wonder if a parent got a ticket without knowing about the recall if they could get Liquidation World to reimburse them? :whistle:

I know ours (in Petawawa) wasn't selling seats separately, but they did have quite a few of the Graco travel systems for $229. I looked at them but it was NOT worth knowing how the seat was handled in transit, considering the boxes were smushed!

I'll have to ask around here and see if anyone bought them. I'll post the link on our local buy/sell site too.
