REALLY cheap Ergo type sling on ebay... should I?

[Albrecht]

I mean stupidly cheap compared to the real thing. Too good to be true? Is it worth the risk? Aaaaarggghhh.

I am too indecisive.

cgi.ebay.co.uk/Blue-Safety-Cotton-Infant-Baby-Carrier-backpack-sling-/170605517084?pt=UK_Baby_Carriers&hash=item27b8e1991c#vi-desc

Anyone else tempted?

well for that price it's worth a go i reckon!!!

i suspect they will be poorly made/nasty material, if something looks too good to be true it usually is ... but you never know!

I haven't heard great things about them. They are apparently very thin compared to a real Ergo, and haven't got the reinforced stitching that a baby carrier should.

Why not look on Natural Mamas and see if you can pick up a cheap carrier there?

I'd say no.

I once ebay-ed some fabric (Lilly Pulitzer) for my mom from hong kong. yes it was the same design but it was sooo thin and crappy.

you just know its going to be a cheap knock off. I would go second hand fro the UK .

My friend has one of these and says it is really good, worth a try at that price I would think

btw, i have a (very) old ergo that I was thinking of , was hoping for about £20 for it, if you;re interested?

I just posted this on another thread but if you're after a bargain Ergo (and not a knock-off)try using my code SMILE at checkout on www.baby-bean.com which should take another 10% off the already discounted price.

baby bean does rock!

thisisyesterday Just saw your message about the ergo - am deffo interested!

Hi,

My son is over 2 years old so an old ergo sling would be great if your still selling?
