Dose anyone know when Britax put leopard print on their Marathon there is someone on Craigslist selling one and I want it for the cover but don't want to pay the price they are asking so I am hoping it is expired ;);)

I don't know, but many times people swap the covers- even people who aren't car seat gurus. If the chest clip is square-ish, then it's definitely expired. Otherwise, just call and ask what the dom is. I've had lyck talking people down in price for their nearly expired seats and being able to get the expired one for free.

Isn't it illegal to sell an expired seat? Unless they are advertising that it's expired... Idk the laws where you are.

That marathon and others long expired show up in CL here all the time. Any day you check there are 3 or 4 expired car seats for sale and usually expired by 2 or more years. CL here (Oregon) does not remove them unless the get flagged for prohibited. I tried to buy that cover from an expired one myself and got pretty much the same response, they were hoping to sell the whole seat.
