    Hello,

    So our son is now 3.5 years old. Before he was born we bought this overpriced stroller it was like $700. A quinny Buzz. now you can get it for $500 ours was well used but is still in great functioning shape with a bit of visible wear. Is asking $300 for it too much?

    Google for craigslist or kijiji ads in your area and see what strollers are going for, to give you some idea of what the market is like in your area.
    Also consider baby consignment stores.

    It is usually suggested that once an item is used that you re-sell it for no more than half of what it is worth new. If the price has gone down, others may not know what it was truly worth new when you bought it... but I would suggest asking half of it's current value. So probably closer to $250. I mean, you can always post it on boards at $300 and see if you get anywhere. Someone may pick it up!

    I would ask the $300 barring in mind someone will probably try to counter offer.

    Personally having 2 kids I would have never of spent $300 on a stroller regardless of the brand name

    You can buy a brand new one for $100 so I would say no - I personally used the same $100 Safety First Stroller for both my kids 3 & 6

    The only people that would consider spending still $300 on a stroller is the select few who are looking for that exact brand and know what it is worth

    I think you may be able to get a little more if you still have the manual and such that came with it too!

    See what others are selling it for and price as such.

    I have sold things for MORE than what I have paid for them because of the type of item and the availability.
    I have also been stuck with things that I have had to give for next to nothing.....just feel for the market.
    Love like crazy everyday and smile.

    I agree. Check out the prices in your area. That will give you a much better idea of what to price it at. Good luck

    Well there is no doubts your baby strollers in great condition. It's better if you can share your product images here. I found some of UK manufacturer which offer new stroller only in 150 pound. Check yourself BabyCave. I have compared there pricing with Amazon, online4baby, mothecare and ebay. They have best price with vast variety. My point is new product available in same price, isn't it?
