She loves it and we have really nothing negative about the purchase, other than the same common problems with folding it. I did lots of research be purchasing this for my wife.

Erin..if its not too late I am purchasing the Explorer! It has all the improvements that people have been asking for...it is really pricey...you are smart to get the phil&teds now...: ) wish I had thought of it...but didn't think I would have a #2. I am going to make the leap and buy from pishposhbaby.com, ther is no sales tax and free shipping! I too missed a GREAT Labor Day sale for an extra 15% off from 'tots on the go' : ( That would have been like $85 and no tax/shipping...oh well!! Thank you everyone for their input! Have been looking and researching for 9 weeks now....my daughter is 9 weeks old!! Wish I had started earlier! A couple of things…2 years later… : )

These people are dishonest. They are stealing from the marketing/consumer education efforts of legitimate retailers and manufacturers. Why do you think they don't post their phone numbers or contact info? Because if they did they would be sued/cut-off from the manufacturers. So it doesn't really matter if they have a "good history" rating or not. I'm sure you can find some thieves that would give you the products they said they were going to give you and that have a "good history" rating from people that buy stolen goods. But does that make it right? Do you want your baby riding around in a stroller that was purchased from someone "gaming" the system and acting dishonestly? Are those the qualities you want to raise your baby with? If you are going to buy off of Ebay (god only knows why) then find an AUTHORIZED dealer that posts their contact information. Otherwise you are just contributing to unethical behavior. Buying from these people on ebay is like buying stolen property. These people are dishonest.

I was about to purchase a dash online from ebay. The seller has a great history rating but now this puts a question in the back of my head. Has anyone else purchased on ebay?

You will NOT have a warranty. Believe me I learned the hard way after I bought a Phil Teds Dash stroller off of Ebay and it was totally messed up with the folding system. Phil and Teds wouldn't honor the warranty. I didn't know this but NONE of the Phil and Teds sellers on ebay are authorized sellers and Phil and Teds said they don't know who these people are and if they find out they will shut them down. The seller I bought from wouldnt refund the money and wouldn't give me a phone number to call. Very dishonest. My advice would be DO NOT buy on ebay. You will NOT have a warranty.

We just had our first child and like many reviewers, I decided to invest in a double now so I we dont have to buy two strollers later! That being said, I've decided to get the new 2010 Sport and was planning on getting it on eBay. However, I'm a little concerned considering all the bad reviews. Has anyone purchased one and had a good experience on eBay? If not, does anyone have a new promotion/discount code for any credible website? These boogers are pricey so any savings helps! A note to all those who might read this, I found a great sun shade for the doubleseat by Protect-a-Bub. Check it out on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Protect-Bub-Tandem-Back-Sunshade/dp/B0019C4NYC/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=baby-products&qid=1271299144&sr=8-4 Hi, so 2 years later hopefully someone still is checking this thread.
