Why buy new when you can get used?

 After straining my back with our huge pram for the last 6 months, I decided it was time to get an umbrella stroller. While surfing the web, I got totally hooked on the Combi strollers. It is just 6kg with one hand folding mechanism, plus it stands upright when folded. This means I don't have to bend down every time I put the stroller in and out of the car. Wonderful!

 Of course I had to get hooked on the newest premium range: the Miracle Turn DX Combi Stroller. But the cheapest retail price I could find was $510. That was too much to spend when I already had a pram, albeit one that was handed down to us from a friend. So I did what any person would do; Turn to eBay. There were some Combi strollers on sale, but they were either more than 2 years old or not a Miracle Turn DX. I wasn't in any hurry to purchase the stroller (although my back would disagree), so I saved my search and waited. And one day, there it was. A near new (only 3 months old) Miracle Turn DX with a starting bid of $150. I waited till the last day, and won with the bidding price of $251.51.

 I am so proud of this purchase. And it was fun, too. The anticipation of waiting for the right product, the suspense of bidding, and finally the excitement of winning the bid. I think it beats walking around ToysRus with a baby, while searching for available shop attendants to show you the stroller. Plus, you are being eco-friendly by buying used.
