Hi ladies, I'm coming home to visit family over xmas/NYs and instead of bringing my beast of a pram over (iCandy Apple) I'm thinking of buying an umbrella stroller and using it while in NZ, then selling it on trademe? Something like a bugaboo bee or iCandy cherry? Do you think this would be worth it - do these prams sell well on trademe, I'm not looking to make money just to break even.
Thanks so much x -------------

Guess it depends how much cheaper they are to buy over there? I don't know the iCandy cherry but the bugaboo bee is about $1400 NZ I think isn't it... You obviously won't sell it for that much, but often prices seem to get pretty high for near new stuff. You could have a look through the expired listing on trademe and see what they went for... ------------- mum to 3 lovely girls :D |

I guess it would depend on how long you are here for & how much you paid for it.
There are a few on TM that are the top end in price but most wont sell quick. MB & P&T are popular. I have used both & would not go for anything else. Joggers & ones that can accommodate more than one child are good for when you are selling. I also would hire if only here for a short term & get one that has a bassinet & can take a car seat. |

I priced up the Quinny Zapp in the UK and they are WAY cheaper! I think you'd make money rather than just break even if you sold it on TM before you left
