Kind of crazy pricing here, don't you think?

This Tiffany Parkway is selling for $175 (plus $49.99 shipping) on Ebay.

Check out the seller's other items: Parkways for $125-$195.

The seller points out that the Parkway has been discontinued, as if that justifies the inflated price.

Wow, what's more shocking is that somebody already bought one for $195. (Click purchases and you can see the history.)

Somebody here had an auction for one and the auction went over $200, but it wasn't a BIN of that much... I guess if bidding is going that high though, maybe they're worth that much? :shrug-shoulders:

That's crazy that people are willing to pay that price, when they're on sale for $60ish some places.

Maybe not that exact pattern, though?

I was searching because I sort of want a Tiffany Parkway, so I have a girly booster to match the Madison Regent.

I'm downsizing from a minivan to a small car, so I'll only have the Regent and one highback booster in the backseat. I'd love to have one that matches the Regent. But it seems that the Tiffany Parkway is sold out everywhere, so maybe that's why Ebay sellers can justify that price.

Now I wonder if I can hunt up a Cougar Regent cover, and get a Cougar Parkway?

My new sedan, if the trade goes through, is a sparkly light tan, which would look really nice with a safari theme in the backseat.

:ROTFLMAO:

Did you check the seller's complete auctions, to see if anyone has actually bought one from him at that price?

Edited to add: I see that some people HAVE bought Parkways from this seller for that price and higher. That's nuts! (Though I suppose that if I won the big lottery, I could pay as much as needed for whatever car seat/cover I wanted.)

Is the Tiffany the only girly Parkway? I saw a floral Parkway at my local AP/Carseat store today. I don't know how much it was, though.

I'm pretty sure that Tiffany was the only floral Parkway.

This alone would make me not want to deal with this seller:

PLEASE BE AWARE,ONCE YOU PURCHASE THIS ITEM U WILL NOT AND CANNOT BACK-OUT AND TELL ME YOU DONT WANT IT,THIS IS A BINDING CONTRACT THAT U AGREE WITH EBAY-MAKE SURE U WANT THIS BEFORE U BUY IT NOW!!!!

DUE TO SO MANY BUYERS PAYING AND THEN CHANGING THEIR MINDS,UR ITEM WILL NOT BE PROCESSED FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS DUE TO THEM HAVING BUYERS REMORSE-ALL SALES ARE FINAL!!!

It isn't the "you can't back out" that would make me avoid this seller. That is fine. What would make me avoid this seller is the U and UR.

Kind of crazy pricing here, don't you think?
