    Default Bargain on Ebay!!!

    I just won one of these for 99p!!

    http://www.mothercare.com/Mothercare...64041&mcb=core

    It is the black seat unit. Lady says its a bit temperamental to fold - but am mostly going to leave it up and hoping a bit of WD40 should make it easier too.

    Was looking at them in Mothercare the other day but couldnt justify the price tag!

    Cant wait to go and pick it up and play now!!

    Thanks!

    It finished while I was out this morning - I put my maximum bid up to the grand price of £10.01 - so was extra pleased when I got it for just the 99p!!

    Desperately want the woman to get in touch so I can go and collect it!!!

    my friend has that buggy for her LO, i love it! i haven't found it that hard to fold ( my friend has hurt her back and can't bend/lift etc ) so i've put it in my car a few times, you just need to find the 'knack' of folding it!

    well done!

    I assume its just a case of getting the "knack" of it. I am mostly going to leave it up as its going to be my pushchair for walking.

    The lady has been in touch for me to go and collect it. She said not to worry about giving her the 99p and that I can "just have it"!! Lol

    What do you think I should do? Now she has offered me to just have it, 99p (or even a £1!) seems an insult. I could offer her a fiver or so. But at the same time, I think that if she wanted more she should have set a Reserve price.

    Oh well, at least I can get it tomorrow and play - but will have to wait til Monday to have a proper go ie with a child in it!!!
