    Phil and Ted Pram

    Hi everyone. I've started doing my pram research and have pretty much decided on the phil and ted pram. My problem is being in a country town we don't have any shops that stock phil and ted so we are going to have to pick it up on one of our upcoming trips to Melbourne.
    So my question is what shops stock Phil & Ted? And where did you get yours from and roughly how much did you pay?

    Thanks in advance,
    Dan.

    It would be worth phoning Twinkle Tots in Northcote and asking if they can get one in for you. They don't have a heap of stock on the floor and the shop (and website) is a complete disaster in terms of presentation but their prices are great. I got my Strider from there for $120 less than Baby Bunting's price. A lot of what they get in is seconds but don't let that put you off - I still got a 12month warranty on my pram.

    Their cots are generally $100 - $150 less than Baby Bunting from memory too.

    nurse dan. we were living rural when i chose the phil and ted and we picked it up from babyzonedirect online (you will have to look it up as i cant post the link).
    We got it for $100 cheaper than we could in the stores and that included postage to our door!

    And their customer service was fantastic and still is 18 months on if we have any problems!

    they are based in wolloongong i think and we had it posted to nth qld!

    I got the Sports and it was $599 for the pram and $100 for the toddler seat. I must have been looking particularly stunning that day (or more likely they felt sorry for me trying to keep Iz and El under control on a hip each!!) because they threw the toddler seat in for free.

    Dan, I am seriously considering selling my P&T in the next couple of months. I'm just not happy with it and would rather get a light weight side by side (my DH is going to KILL me!). I have no idea what the freight would be to get it to you but if you're happy to wait for a while and buy second hand not new, I'm more than happy to look into arrangements to get it to you.

    Hey Dan,

    I got mine from Baby Time - they have two stores, one in Hoppers Crossing and one in Geelong.

    Will you be near the Western Ring Rd? If so, the Hoppers Crossing store is just off the Ring Rd.

    The manager there did me a great deal - I got a new Sport, plus toddler seat, sun shade and rain shield for under $700. The pram on its own at Baby Bunting is $695 I think unless on sale.

    If that's not convenient, go to any of the Baby Bunting stores - there's one of them in Thomastown. You can bargain with them - just push hard!

    Hey sweets you will LOVE it! I have the sport and we got it at the Baby Gallery in Clayton. We paid $539 for the pram + doubles kit! Bargain - this store pretty much sells everything cheaper than Baby Bunting. Im not sure about the Dash or Vibe though but I know they are also cheaper than BB! Good luck lovely!

    I second what Tan said - I got the Sports (without doubles kit) for $469 from Baby Gallery too! I didn't find a better price than that anywhere else

    I love my P&T!! We got ours on eBay with lots of accessories - barely used! So if you can find one that is around your area that is also an option.

    Dan, I bought my Phil and Teds last year from Oke's Toy warehouse in Albury! They stock the latest range so go have a look there! You might be able to pick up an 08 model cheaper right now as they should be getting the newest range in. I saved hundreds that way!

    Ooooooooh... Dan, if you're not interested in this offer... Is it exclusive to Dan, Lulu? Cause I'll buy it from you if Dan doesn't want it!
