Cool! Although it irks me when stores artificially inflate prices so they can put it on "sale" for the regular retail price.

yeah, me, too... lol... but with it being paul frank, I wasn't even sure about the price being like that... and I don't know anywhere else that has them for pre-order... AND (cause I just can't say and enough today) it's their stock photos, so I didn't wanna just snatch them, kwim?

and Julius Stripe (this photo is from the official clek site, so I don't know if/when it will be available for pre-order or purchase)

Paul Franks are $499.99
Standard fabrics $474.99
Drift black $449.99

At least that's what I think I remember Chris telling me. And prices are the same in USA and Canada.

And THREE Paul Franks!? Nice!

I don't know? I haven't been following the U.S. web sites so I figured this was new for you guys?

Not new. The company I work for has been taking preorders for a few months now.

I dunno. I've paid about that for a car seat before. It's a luxury brand with luxury features.

Boyish, girlish and gender neutral. Makes sense to me. :shrug-shoulders:

I'm all for the patterns! Just not the freaky-eyed monkey.

And it has features in it that no other brand has. Having touched the seat and played with it a little, I can say it's definitely worth the price tag in my opinion. If I had need of a rf'ing seat, this is what I'd be buying. Not to mention that the company is honest and reasonable in how they communicate information.

I don't know if it's been said on the boards yet or not, but they're also going to be releasing their crash test data on the seat. :thumbsup:

LOL I guess they can't please everyone. I don't even really know where the monkey came from...book? Movie? I just know that when I showed DD the Oobr choices, the heart shades monkey won by far! And hey, the sunglasses hide the freaky eyes...

I the monkey, but DD1 is afraid of it. I keep trying to convince her she really likes it lol

I think I'll have better luck convincing DD2 we need the hearts and shades one . . .

Who the heck am I kidding?! I need the monkey, who cares about the kids!
