Evening all, just a quick query regarding babies head position... does anyone else have problems with this? T always faces to the right no matter how many times I turn his head, he does this for sleeping/ feeding/ cuddles/ etc. I have tried blankets rolled up against his side to keep his head the other way but he still manages to get back. His head isn't flat at the moment but what I am worried about is tonight I could see his neck muscle on the one side really sticks out.. but on the other side you cant even see it, is this from him having his head constantly facing right? I am seeing my HV tomorrow so hopefully can ask her but has anyone else had this?

My friend's little boy had this and he had a couple of sessions of physio which loosened up the neck muscles and really helped. I can't remember how old he was at the time, but probably 3-4 months old.

I'd be peed of about the Quinny, CAFC. Like you say, immaculate means like new. I would describe what you've said as good used condition.

i think i saw an ad for morrisons but can't remember what is said so not sure if it's a good deal or whether sainsburys 1/3 off is the go

aww no Cafc thats carp about the Quinny, thats what puts me off with Ebay, one persons 'immaculate' is another persons 'trash'. I got negative feedback on ebay for listing some size 11 flipflops (OH was bought and never liked) and the person left me bad feedback as they didn't fit their feet... LOL. How is that my fault?! They were brand new with tags and the exact size they stated!

Or one person hopes that the other person's so short sighted they won't notice. I once bought a black dress listed as BNWT that came with no tags, grey from multiple washings and with deodorant marks down the inside _pale_

I did get feedback a while ago from someone about a mini-dress/tunic I sold as size 8-10 saying she's a 10 and it didn't cover her bum. Not my fault your bum's bigger than your idea of it.

I know its used etc, so i dont expect it to not have a single mark etc.... i just think that takes the mick, I mean its all fine etc and im still happy but just be honest about it you know?

Im waiting till i get my positive feedback to leave mine, although part of me is tempted to email and just say look im happy with it but just a word to the wise etc etc

Plus I think DH is peeved with me for spending money on something that wasnt as described. got it to the car and i know they say you should take the car seat off and fold down the chassis seperately etc, but obviously the previous owners havent done that, because when we tried folding it down with the seat unit on, it wouldnt stay folded down..... it only did when we took the seat unit off - i think thats why DH is so aggro about it....

angelfairy

that is why i have avoided ebay during my recent culling of LO's clothes etc during the move, i just couldn't be doing with the hassle.

now i want something 'guardian angel' to go on the wall in the house, where do i go?? i usually go to ebay for these things

So true. I sold some Fit Flops which were in good condition but had obviously been worn and the woman wanted a refund as she said they were worn out and wouldn't last five minutes. I refunded her and got her to send them back. I've since been wearing them all summer and they are a still in good condition.

I just won 2000 bp woohoo! That is nearly two redeems for me if they go through!

CAFCGirl

this is the wording of the listing

Quinny Buzz Travel System - (Blue/Silver reflective)

Immaculate Condition (Must be seen)

Includes : Pushchair, Baby carrier / Car seat, Baby Basket / Cot, Cosy toes cover, 2 x Quinny bags with rain covers, Underchair basket.

Cost £799

Local pick up only due to size.

maybe i havent picked up on the "must be seen" comment....

SugarSpun

But given that you only see it when you're picking up that's disingenuous at best. I'd ask for a partial refund to cover new stickers at least.
