Well thanks to BBB poster SatchnBucky (I think that's right) I caved and bought a floor model Maclaren Techno XLR off ebay for $140 (including shipping:cheerleader1:)! I wasn't planning on it, but honestly it was a deal I felt I couldn't pass up as I have always kind of wanted a Techno. So it will be my second Mac bought off Ebay, but my first used. I am sure I will like it though and if I don't I'll just sell on CL. So what have you bought new vs. bought used?

New (and or got as gifts):
all carseats (3 Britax, 1 Graco, and 1 Evenflo; Graco was a gift, and 1 Britax was paid for w/gift cards)
Beco carrier
Baby Bjorn (gift)
2 Graco Pack N Plays
Maclaren Triumph
Ju Ju Be Be Spicy diaper bag
Eddie Bauer diaper bag (gift)
Dreamer Design single jogger (gift)
Avent manual breast pump
baby bottles (gift)
2005 ed. of Baby Bargains book
Klean Kanteens
play mat (gift)
crib bedding (gift)

Used:
Peg Perego Pliko
Uppa Baby Vista
Maclaren Techno XLR
DD's Graco swing (free)
clothes (lots of Hanna Andersson, and Gymbo. from private parties or Ebay; love Ebay for Hanna!:))

We are about to buy a Bob Rev. duallie, and will be getting a new swing for #2; the Rev. will be new, and the swing will either be used or new, we haven't decided yet as we haven't 100% decided which one we want. Simple vs. more advanced like a Sweet Peace or Papasan. I might also have to get #2 a new crib aquarium as DD used her soo much it no longer works 100%. That will most likely be new.
