Question Good Deal on a Vista?

MotoMommaNH · May 6, 2013

What's a good price for a used Vista? I found one on Craigslist about an hour away that's listed at $225. Listing says original price was $600. Comes with all the original accessories (bassinet rain cover etc) plus a Graco car seat adapter.

Also, it's a light blue color. Is there a way to tell how old/what year of manufacture by the color? I just want to figure out if it's like super old and would need new wheels or if it's truly a great deal.

That's a good deal. I've been looking for one and the cheapest I've seen is $300 for a silver one without an adapter.

I agree that sounds like a good deal. Ask for the year and how many recline positions there are. In the 2009 and older, there are 3, in the 2010 and newer there are 4 I think.

The light blue color started with the 2009 line, I have a 2008 and it is the old dark blue.

The adapter itself is $40 new so yes, I think that is a good deal. I've been meaning to list mine and I was going to start at $275 but accept $225-$250.

As far as the wheels, I guess it would depend on wear and tear. I have used my stroller in snow, on grass and over compacted dirt and I will be honest and say, yes, there is wear on the wheels but no problems with them.

I'd contact the seller and ask for more pictures up close but it sounds like potentially a good buy!

They started doing the star wheels in 2010, so if you see those it should have the 4 position recline. I had a 2009 and upgraded to the 2010 for the "0" upright seating position.
