I have a Chicco Capri/C6 and I really like it. It's done me well but I've started taking some long walks with my 2 kids and the almost 4 year old is having a hard time keeping up. I imagine as it gets hotter, this will become an even bigger issue. So I've started looking at stroller boards that I could attach to my existing Chicco. Most of them are roughly $90 and have pretty mixed reviews. The Valco Hitch Hiker had some of the best reviews but I've decided that for the same or even less money, I can find a stroller that has some foot boards/pegs. Not to mention that all the stroller boards I've seen stick out pretty far making it difficult for the pusher (thats me ) to walk normally. So, this means I have to find a Peg Perego Pliko or P3 used for under $90. I can also then sell my current stroller to help the expense a bit. I should preface this with the fact that my local Craigslist SUCKS and quality baby gear is scarce. I've found 2 on ebay, I guess I want to run them by you guys to see if these are good deals . The first listing has a stock photo (I've attached) and I could buy it now for $30 plus $35 shipping. I've emailed the seller (who has 100% good feedback) about some more specific details (especially regarding the foot boards/pegs). It appears to be the 2003 Pliko model that preceded the P3 but not so ancient that it doesn't have a child tray. (Here's a link explaining the differences between the Pliko and the P3: http://mamakath-ivil.tripod.com/mystrollercollection/id17.html ) I should also say that it's been described as a metallic color and not the sand color from the stock photo (which I like because I think that tan is ugly). Worst case, I can pay $65 for this right now and have a stroller with foot boards. My other option is this stroller:http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280631464772&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT. It also can be had for $65 right now but bidders could be lurking and the price could go up. It's newer. It has larger foot board. It is missing the tray, which isn't a huge deal considering I have 14 month old and her Current Chicco doesn't have a tray either. It would be roughly $30-$40 to replace it if I did want to. There's also a left trigger missing on the side but it supposedly doesn't affect functionality. So which one guys??? There's only 15 hours left on the newer one, should I go for the newer one with some flaws (and it might get pricier) or the older one which is guaranteed to be no more then $65 and appears to have been owned by the seller? Thanks!!!
