Date of Manufacture Question

Well I was at Sears today looking at washers and dryers and just happened to notice that they had britax in stock. Now this is a big thing because I usually drive an hour to dayton to buy any higher end carseat so I was excited that britax is finally coming to our little town. That is until I checked the DOM, it was 10/05:( Can you believe that?? And they were marked full price also. Now I'm all for getting a good deal and I wouldn't mind buying a seat that was over a year old but I'm surely not going to pay full price. So do you guys think this is worth bringing up to the manager and seeing if I can get a discount?

I doubt you'll get a discount, since there isn't a sell by date on it.
That said, that IS how I scored a good price on a Roundabout from a baby specialty store. It wasn't quite as old as the one you're talking about, but it was a bit over a year.
Never hurts to ask, but you definitely don't need another seat!

LOL Yep, you're officially a car seat nut :D

I'd definitely ask about getting a discount. That's coming up on 1.5 yr. Can't hurt to ask anyway ;) If they say no .. you could be snide about it "ok then, I'll go pay full price elsewhere, so I can at least get the FULL use out of the seat, thank you very much :D"

But I'm just that kind of person hahaha

Were the ones in the boxes that old, or was it just the display model? I know around here, since they can't sell the display model, they keep them around forever, even though the selling stock is quite new.
