recaro date of manufacture/expiration question

Does recaro have a 6 year expiration? I went to Big Lots to check out the vivo and they all had manufacture dates of 09/27/2007, so they are 2 years old. If they expire in 4 years are they worth $65? Are the ones I'm seeing new online for $89.99 going to have the same dates? I assume they aren't making them anymore (I don't see them on their website) so what is the most recent manufacture date I can expect to find?

That's a good date for the $65 vivo. That's about what we were getting earlier when jcpenney had them on sale for $60. I have heard that you can only buy new ones from recaro and they are $99. I would look at how long you intend to use the seat. I figure my ds will be in a backless by the time his seat expires, so I am not concerned about the dom.

My plan is to put Isaiah in it for as long as Michael fits in the monarch in the 3rd row. Probably, maybe, ok hopefully 6 months to a year. I know I will have to eventually get another backless for Isaiah because the monarch and airbooster are both from 07 (I think). The monarch might be 08. I guess I need to check. When Michael no longer fits in the monarch at all then Isaiah will have a choice of the monarch or vivo.
