Why do I look at e-bay???

I know I shouldn't but I can't help myself. There are two out of date Roundabouts I have seen not to mention a Touriva with a t-shield. One RA had a DOM of 4/26/99.
edited to add she has LATCH on a 99? Does Britax sell a retrofit kit?

by LATCH she meant the top tether. yeah, that thing is totally expired...

And even if it weren't expired, older Roundabouts only go to 30 lbs RF, not 33 lbs. Look at those shipping costs, though! That's insane!

Ok so I e-mailed two of them and this is the response I got from one...

This message was sent while the listing was active.
safna0 is the seller.

Hi. we contacted the retailer who we purchased the seat from. They said there is no expiration date on the chair. If the chair has not been in an accident and the parts are not frayed or breaking down, the chair is still fine for use. Please contact britax customer service if you have any other questions.

My response

I have contacted Britax in the past and it is planly written in there frequently asked questions that there seats should not be used longer then 6 years. You should contact Britax and ask. It may not have been in an accident but because of its age there can be unseen wear and tear.

Very polite and to the point. That seat is too old to use.
