I'm looking for a reversible Britax or Graco but can't find them anywhere. Baby SHop is out of Britaxes and won't be bringing in anymore because they "don't sell"!!
Anyone know where I can find either or?
Would also consider a Cosco Scenera which Baby Shop used to have but no longer does.
Or an Evenflo Triumph which they had but don't have anymore!
Thanks in advance.

This is what we reached : Britax Evolva 123 plus High Line 2011 model it takes the baby from 9 kg. to 36 kg.( doesn't exist here yet ) will cost us after shipping 1474 Dh. A Britax Safe Fix from 9 to 18 kg. is 2 380 in Mothercare. Now, if you want a smaller one around 1000 dhs it doesn't make sense to pay the shipping.

Thanks Sippycup. Yes, that's kind of what I figured. St.George, they told me they aren't carrying Britax anymore as - according to them - it doesn't sell!

Have you tried Dubizzle for a second hand one? Or I would wait for a family member to come out and ask them to bring it out as I have a reversible Britax and it only cost me Dhs.995 from Babyshop, actually that was full price but I got it in the sale for about Dhs.700.... Also have you asked Babyshop to check all their branches?

we checked the boxed item weight on Amazon UK and it's 10 kg, which we checked it on shop and ship and it gave 602 AED. At any case even if it's 28 lb, samilir at mother care are more than 2000 AED

sippycup... do you know how much Shop & Ship are going to charge you? I looked up the weight of these car seats and they're ****** heavy Around 28 pounds. I know they charge on air chargeable weight not straight weight but assuming it is straight weight, we'd be looking at 840 Dhs just for the shipping!! Do you really think that's still cheaper than buying the same thing here (assuming you could even find the same thing here).

forgot to add, the site has sale at the moment on carseats. It is soooo expensive to buy in Dubai. Why??!! I never understood why everything is so expensive here. I know is Dubai and everything but still..

sippycup... OMG.. never thought of that. I figured that it would be ludicrously expensive to do it that way but I forgot, the prices here are all inflated anyway so no, it probably won't cost more if we have it shipped over! Thanks. Will have a look at the site you suggested.

m_king do you have a shop and ship account? We had the same problem with finding a car seat in Dubai. Our daughter will grow out of her maxi cosi soon and we were shooping for a bigger carseat and after researches we concluded that we will buy from the uk and ship here a britax. The funny thing is that will be even cheaper than buying here and they have a big range to choose from! We will buy from preciouslittleone.com

Ah. Googled them. Unfortunately they don't carry Britax or Graco. Nor Cosco or Evenflo! But thank you.
