Returning Regent - WWYD?

Hi all,
On Saturday I made the decision to buy a Regent for 33lb 3.5 yr old DS who just got his MA turned FF. His cousin who is 4.5 and a tiny 30 lbs was in an old expired second hand booster with a seatbelt (with two empty harness slots above his shoulders -- I asked where the harness was and my bro said they got it that way from someone else). Anyway, I was thinking my nephew will get the MA if I get DS the Regent.

Now I'm thinking I made the wrong decision -- I should wait for the Recaro Signo. In the Regent, his head hangs when he sleeps (there's as much recline as I can get) and there's something about the lack of SIP in the Regent that bugs me.

So, I would return it to the specialty baby store that I bought it at BUT I'm pretty sure I lost the receipt (threw it out with the BK drive thru garbage I think :whistle:

They won't take it back without the receipt (I called already); I paid cash b/c their debit machine wasn't working and my bank atm was next door.

EBay?? Ad in paper?? Anyone here want it?? I paid $269.99, it's Sahara, btw. I can count on one hand the number of times he rode in it.

Thanks for any advice you have :rolleyes:

If you can not sell it here and want to sell it try your local craigslist as they seem to go very fast on Oregon craigslist.
Plus no fees!:thumbsup:

Thanks very much for suggesting Craigslist. I checked out the New Hampshire Craigslist and may go that route. I think the current plan is to use the Regent until the Recaros come out then check those out and see if we want to get one. We'll probably sell the Regent if we do. DS wants the pink Signo :rolleyes:

Thanks again,
