DEAD: UPPAbaby 2012 Vista Stroller $499 shipped.

Quote from slicksteals1109 : This seems really expensive for a stroller...what gives? What makes this worth buying?

With a pricetag like that, I think the answer is no. Looks more like a product of hype and moms wanting to impress their friends.

just ordered. the price went down to $498.64. although shipping was 4-5 weeks when i first looked at it, shipping was 2 days. ah well you snooze you lose.

Quote from Rednop : So.. This is Apple's version of a stroller?

I know it looks like that. My wife and I don't do anything thats trendy. My phone is a page plus converted sprint phone. She had a windows 7 phone but she switched to android so we could do WIFI calling. This strollers had the features and she wanted. Its not a b/s status thing, its a quality thing.

Does it come with V6 engine?

That is one lucky baby! Only truly loving parents would $500 on a freaking stroller lol

I looked at this one, but because we want the dual seating option sooner, we went with the City Select, it appears to be more flexible in the configuration options and looks like it would be more comfy for 2... Although if I had seen this price earlier I may have reconsidered. Also the City Select works well for tall people too.

Quote from 00timmo : not exactly true... the city select comes bare bones at about $500, but does not include anything but the frame, seat, canopy and under basket. by the time you buy the items to make them an apples to apples comparison, you are higher priced with the city select. (well over 700) and it's other options are all priced way higher than most add-ons from many stroller companies.

Looking at it the only think you need to add to the city select to have an apples to apples comparison is the bassinet which is 90 on Amazon. Meaning 590 total, what else would you be adding? This doesn't appear to come with the rumble seat which would be the second seat on the Select.

Quote from Rednop : So.. This is Apple's version of a stroller?

It pretty much is the best stroller, so I guess the answer is yes.

Damn I ordered before the price drop and I paid a little extra for the red color. I tried calling their customer service to see if they will price adjust but looks like they've gone home for the day. Anyone have any experiences with this company and price adjustments? I see it gives me the option to cancel my order but I dont want to lose on the shipping since it seems its shipping 4-5 wks out now.

We have the B-Ready and were looking at this model (well, 2011 model) last year. Only reason we went with the B-Ready is that we use Britax car seats and were able to get a great deal on the stroller. We're happy with this design for a stroller and yes, it does take up a lot of room because of how it folds but it's extremely easy to use and pushes very easy.

Only knock we have with the B-Ready is that the wheels squeak... squeak squeak squeak. We should have waited for the 2012 model (we were anxious to get one and didn't know that strollers were like cars, lol) which purportedly fixes that issue. My wife contacted Britax and they sent us new wheels at no charge but it still squeaks, just not as bad but still bad enough. We're going to contact them again and see if they're going to send us another set of wheels or a new chassis... Oh, maybe one other knock is that it's wider than a small stroller, but then again, it does have the ability to hold 2 toddlers/infants.

This is a insane price. I bought the black 2012 Vista in June after our daughter was born for $620.

in for one in red, last night.... thanks!!!!!
