Ok another question for my sister LOL
She is going to buy a phil and teds as it meets all her requirements. She wants the lastest model sorry i dont know what is called. As its really nice and compact and that was one of her major requirements. The only place she has found it is at Mums and Bubs and they have a 2mth wait on it as apparently they sell faster than they can get them in.
She doesnt mind the wait but what i am wondering if is there anywhere else she get it to save some money perhaps an online shop or something. Another option for her is an interstate shop and have it courier deliver it as her DP has a couple of couriers he deals with.
Sorry very long winded any ideas ladies??
Thanks

Hi Carol,
I believe the Aussie distributor is Mako and they usually match in-store specials - they are online so I assume you can google them. Babies Gslore also sell it and deliver interstate, I think they had the latest P&T on special too.
There is a thread somewhere, might be product reviews where someone asked a similar question but I am not sure of what the responeses were.

I just got a P&T plus the extra seat from Babies Galore in Sydney. I think it was an extra $25 or something to deliver to Canberra, but still $50 cheaper than Mums & Bubs and no waiting list. Sale is probably over, but worth checking their usual price.
You can buy direct from the manufacturer in NZ but it's about $750 by the time it's delivered, or on eBay second-hand they go for $550 on average.

Hi, I got my P&Te3 from Mums & Bubs for $707.25- this included the double sun/bug mesh, double storm, cocoon, bunny liner, and mesh bag thing that you can chuck into the underneath basket. Plus I ended up going back and buying the doubles kit for an extra $99. The M&B's price was 25 Cents more than Mako's. M&B will give you a 12% discount on price if you pay for it in full when ordering. Mine took almost 2 months to come in. Very happy with the pram.

I am also very interested in this pram and went to m&bs to see if they had it. The sales lady told me it is a very popular pram and there is a 2 mth wait on stock. I will have to keep my eye on this post to see if any one gets it cheaper.

I'm totally not with the P&T thing, but I had Ryan's stroller delivered from the Gold Coast and was very happy with the courier etc. It cost me $20 for delivery and I saved nearly $100 off buying it locally. I bought from Cots Glaore which is now called something completely different (sorry can't think of the name but I think their old cotsgalore dot com dot au site still redirects you).
Butting my nosey nose back out!
