Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 I don't really need a "deal" per say, but I just need a place where I can buy just the BASE for this carseat. Any ideas?
RossMAN Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Are you looking for somewhere local, online or doesn't matter? Perhaps one of the GottaDeal parents can chime in with some suggestions.
Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 online is fine, although shipping a large 12 pound item would not be the best idea. We've looked a little local, no one seems to carry just the base
jamesave Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 what brand? Graco? EDIT: I never know there is babytrend brand before. I thought it was an online store.
RossMAN Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 I wonder if any stores even sell just the BASE? Have you contacted the manufacturer? They always have a "retailers" list or they may sell that part directly.
jamesave Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 they do. some families have multiple cars, where multiple bases comes in handy. It's just to make sure the base can handle the carrier that you have. have you checked babiesrus.com, babyuniverse.com? I know my local babies r us has the base only..
Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 I've looked at Amazon.com, which is pretty much the same as babiesrus. We bought the carseat at babiesrus and it was on clearance, which tells me they aren't getting any more in... I'll try to contact the manufacturer, see what they say.
RossMAN Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 I'll try to contact the manufacturer, see what they say.Please keep us informed, I'd like to know the outcome. Thank you.
Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 Will do. I called and got routed around for a while until I hit voice mail. They have an information request you can fill out online, hopefully I will get an email soon.
Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 Here is the reply I got from baby trend > Our Flexloc bases can be found at Babies R Us and they are compatible > with the Latchloc system...the store # is SKN558144 to facilitate > finding it more easily. babiesrus.com has nothing... and the "local babiesrus" is over an hour drive away!
i-bystander Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Hmmm... is Ebay an option? I found this for $49.99.
Joemonkey Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 I really don't need another entire seat, and I don't know if I trust a used car seat anyway. I just called babies r us and asked about the base, they said they have 3 in stock but I forgot to ask the price...
