I'm in toys r us & they have a maestro display seat in Henderson pattern on sale for $50. Is it safe for them to sell it & should I say something?

jacqui276 said:A lot of the stores here have the seats tied down to shelves (although our BRU does not). I have bought 2 display seats that were up on shelves and tied to the shelf so honestly didn't have any issues with it and don't regret it (one from Walmart and another from Zellers). I don't think that having bought those seats means that I know nothing about car seat safety. If they are ones that come down for people to toss around and play with, I may be a bit more nervous about it.
I have seen TONS of display seats for sale here when the seat or pattern is being discontinued so I doubt that it is illegal or anything to sell them. I would inspect the seat quite thoroughly before purchasing it though.
