So we are wanting to get the baby jogger city select with 2seats (obviously) for our twins. We know you can get into online from america much cheaper so can anyone point me in the right direction? What are the good sites to go to? Thanks in advance!
I've heard slot of bad things about getting them from the us. Some people have been waiting months for it to arrive with no communication from the store they bought it from, you also don't get an Australian warranty if you buy from overseas. I'm glad I bought my baby jogger city select from Australia cause there was a problem with the wheels and I got it fixed strait away.
I know it wasnt your question but wanted to give you my opinion. Good luck getting your pram, it really is a great one!
Baby Jogger is cracking down on retailers shipping their prams overseas. My friend bought hers before the crack down and was very happy with what she got and what she paid for it. If you are lucky enough to find a US store that still does ship internationally, then you can expect a fairly long wait - about 6 weeks. We ended up getting ours on special here, but it was still quite exxy. If you do order one from o/s or from here, try and ensure that it is the 2011 model (due out here in about July this year). It really is a great pram btw - we are very happy with ours
ETA: it goes without saying that your warranty will be void if you get if from o/s, but even with cost of replacement parts and repairs, it will still probably work out cheaper because of the low initial cost.
Jas - we got ours from the Winkalotts site. They are a New Zealand company. DH wasn't keen on buying from the US so I managed to convince him that New Zealand was almost like buying from Australia . We ended up getting the Baby Jogger City Mini Double. I loved the Select (especially in purple) but couldn't go past how easy the Double was to fold up and someone also mentioned side by side is great for when they are older and your are out and want to feed them (food that is ).
Winkalotts was great - at the time we got ours they were having a sale and the NZ dollar was $1.34 Australian. Shipping for items over $500 is free. They keep us informed every step of the way,answered all my questions and we recieved it so quickly. As the other girls have mentioned, the only bad part is you don't get a warranty but we couldn't go past the savings.
i am really wanting the Baby Jogger city select too, but not sure if i can justify the cost - was looking for a cheaper way - Winkalotts pricing and ebay still are on the exxy side & without warranty....what is the best U.S. site?
has anyone looked at the Kolcraft Options Tandem - it's half the price - any feedback would be good....
my 2 boys will be 19 months apart and am guessing i will only need a double for a year (i have a 3rd boy who will be 4.5yrs and out of a stroller...)
Or does anyone have any other suggestions ..... (our single buggy is a mountain buggy and i was trying not to get the side by side option)
