Might as well face it...we're addicted to prams.

Thread II.......Oh dear

Lol how intriguing! I warned hubby that there were five large boxes coming for the Pear today or tomorrow and he didn't flinch! He's come a long way in a few short months ;) I can see possibilities for a Vista and Rumble seat just to try ;)

If only I had £600 going spare!

i just made a best offer

it was pittful,but i hope i get it!!!
it was every penny i had in PP!

I hope you win it. It's a great price. Shame the hood clip is broken but like they say, the hoods are stiff so it shouldn't flop anywhere. the quality is outstanding on the Kobi - I love the chassis!

Just to add my huge five boxes of Pear arrived this morning confused Hubby is bemused by them and keeps asking why they are so heavy (there's carrycots, car seats etc). My Graco Quattro Duo covers are now washed so I guess today is a pushchair playing day! Oh and hubby has picked up my bike too but has hidden it! I have told him that I expect it wrapped with a big bow on it! :o

Hmmm I did the smiley wrong didn't I?! Lolol

ive just listed my contours on Ebay,in the vain hope that it will sell fast so i can offer more for the kobi.....if not it'll go towards the vista

monkeyi new it was you that wrote me the essay in a PM on the seed PLI!

If it's the same one that I have read it's a very good essay. Thank you! I love that you can add skis and especially the tyre tracks leaving a message - that is indeed very cool! I think someone could have a good business making personalised pram wheels :)

BTW i like the look of the single Contours!

There's a Contours in Birmingham for £50 starting price!!! I might try and persuade my Mum to go and try it in her boot.

I also want that Kobi! Technically I could afford it but I'll need the money when I go back to university. And I wouldn't steal it from under your nose Frigg.

the contours fits in my mums boot her car is a peugot 306...if thats any help??

Sadly I never used the seed pli with skis in actual snow. Where we live, we got a bit of snow but it had all melted by the time the skis arrived!
The summit xc was awesome in the snow though! The handbrake for speed control was fab. I added tyre sparx (tesco) to the wheels to be seen after dark in winter.

I don't know if that helps! Her boot is probably a similar size but the boot door is actually quite small so it can be a pain to get pushchairs in.

quick! how do i make £200 ???????

NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! The person selling the Contours in Birmingham did a BIN for £75!!!! Why would he accept so little???!! I've sent him a message asking him to let me know if the sale falls through. I'm so disappointed.
Frigg, if I knew I'd be off doing it! I'm guessing your offer was refused.

countered...i sooo want to acept it,i just dont know when id get the extra through,im madly trying to sell the contours.....but not for £75!!!!!

The Kobi is such a bargain. And so was the Contours at £75! At that price I could have tried it out and if it didn't fit in my Mum's car I could have kept it and hidden it from her sold it.

I know some of you have bought from the US and I just wondered if you'd been able to reclaim any US VAT? People who visit the UK seem to be able to buy tax-free. Not sure how this works, but was just wondering.

no i havent re-claimed any US vat,but i havent tried....

Hmm. I'll look into that. The other thing I wondered is, if you decide you don't like what you bought and send it back, then can you reclaim the UK import taxes? Mind you, I appreciate that sending a pushchair back to the US wouldn't be cheap!

ive no idea if you'd even be able to send it back in the first place!!
if you ever find out,do let us know!

Damn it! The person selling the Contours got back to me saying the woman's already picked it up. I bet she was too excited to wait like I would be.

That's annoying really. Ho hum! FriggFRIGG how is the piggy bank emptying going?

....oh,hi guild.....errr,yeah,ummm,id never empty a piggybank for a buggy!
