    Default Should I sell my BJCM?

    I have a 2009 BJCM, MB Swift, a Valco Trimode double, and a Cybex Callisto at parents' place. We travel there once a year but stay for a good amount. I thought DD (3) wouldn't need a stroller but didn't think of the zoo trips. So, I have one stroller at the parents' house and we are visiting there for about 2 months. I don't want to buy another double.
    I was thinking of taking our BJCM from our place and selling it at parents' place. I really love the BJCM for quick errands and the easy folding. We don't use it much at home because we live in the country. If I sell it, I could buy something else as our travel/errands stroller. I have tall kids so I was considering the Valco Snap or Zee. But I am not sure if I want to sell the BJCM. What would it go for?
    Any ideas?

    I would do it. Something new is always fun and the snap is smaller, lighter and getting great reviews.

    I so want to do it. I just don't know if it's worth lugging all the way to the U.S. and what if it doesn't sell? Then, I have to bring it back. I definitely need a lightweight stroller here for the car.

    It should sell, BJ usually sell really well. I think I might list it for $150.

    I personally don't think it's worth doing unless you really need it in the US. I did this recently and the stroller got damaged when it was gate checked and the money I made selling wasn't worth the price of lugging it around.

    DH is against bringing the BJCM because of the hassle of bringing it back and forth. He is advocating a >$50 stroller for DD while we are at the 'rents but I am having a hard time stomaching a First Years Jet or something like that.

    There are some good deals on Albee right now. Britax Blink is back. Plus there's the Aprica Presto Flat. And then the Quinny Sennz, which sounds unappealing in the Baby Gizmo video, but looks pretty cool in person. Maybe you could find a sale on something good and then sell before you leave. If it was a $50 or less loss then it would be equal to your DH's plan, but with a better stroller.
