How much would you pay for a used travel system?

I'm selling a travel system that is still in great shape and some extras- 3 car seat bases, an extra car seat cover, and a Bundle Me in addition to the standard stroller and car seat. The system retails for about $200 new (without the extras). What do you think is a fair price or what would you be willing to pay for this? I'm putting it on Craigslist if that makes a difference. It's an Eddie Bauer Adventure Travel System.

    I would start out for half the price and then be willing to go down. When buying used I usually want 1/2 off.

    I know others have said they wouldnt buy a used carseat, but not everyone can afford to purchase a new one. I'd go half.

    Most folks won't buy the car seat. It's not safe. Plus the Eddie Bauer were recalled for handle defaults very recently (December 2009.) Since you shouldn't use a car seat attached to a stroller, that would basically mean the car seat is worthless. Not as sure about the bases. The car seat cover is nice but most folks don't buy them anyway, and the Bundle Me is nice, but again not many people buy one (and since you should only be using the carseat in the car, it's not like it's that necessary.)

    So basically you're selling the stroller, about $80, and the car seat cover, about $40. So maybe $50 for the two of them.

    The problem with selling a car seat is that unless you know the person you are selling to, they will never 100% trust the car seat has never been in a crash. So many people try to sell expired car seats and seats that have been in minor crashes that craigslist is going to fetch you a low price.

    You'd be lucky to get $50... used is used and a lot of people are getting away from large bulky strollers now.

    I just sold my daughters Graco travel system with 2 bases for $60 on Craigslist last week. Hers had a few scuffs and a couple stains on the seat, so if yours is in like new condition I would say start at $80-$85 and see what people offer you.

    i wouldnt pay much seeing as how i wouldnt use it for the car seat purposes, just as a stroller, maybe $20 if the stroller is in good condition

    I paid 75.00 for mine on craigslist. It was in gret shape other than the fact I needed to wipe it down. I wouldn't go over 100.00 because there are so many on there and there are a lot of new ones you can purchase for 130.00

    Good luck!
