Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across iCandy
- The Peach, which is the flagship and converts to a double with the right adapters and second seat
- Complete configurations with the carrycot, converter and second seat unit, since buying those parts separately costs close to a new chassis
- Later Peach generations, which are compatible with a wider range of current accessories and are worth naming precisely
- Limited-edition fabric collaborations, which were produced in small numbers and are sought by people completing a particular look
What pulls iCandy resale value down
- Missing converters and adapters, which are the parts that make the model worth buying and are surprisingly expensive to replace
- Cracked chassis joints around the fold, which is where the frame takes the load and is not economically repairable
- Worn tyres and seized bearings, which are the usual consequence of heavy use and are immediately obvious when a buyer pushes it
- Stained and non-removable fabrics, since the seat units are used daily and buyers expect to see the covers close up
Identifying and dating yours
- The serial is on the chassis, generally on the frame near the fold, and the generation number is printed alongside the model name
- Name the generation precisely — Peach 6, Peach 7 and so on — because accessory compatibility changes between them and buyers filter on it
- Photograph the chassis folded and unfolded, and list every adapter and accessory individually rather than as a bundle
What lifts any travel system, whatever the label
Travel systems sell better than their individual parts, because a buyer expecting a complete set will not settle for pieces.
- Complete sets with pushchair, carrycot and car seat
- All adapters included and matched to the seat
- Recognised brands with parts still available
- Car seat still well within its expiry date
And what pulls one down
- Missing adapters, which are model-specific and costly
- Car seats close to or past their expiry date
- Incomplete sets sold as full travel systems
- Any accident history on the car seat
Working out what yours is worth
- Lay out every component and photograph them together
- Check the car seat’s expiry date moulded into the shell
- Confirm the adapters match both the chassis and the seat
What to state in the listing
- Brand and system model, and every component included
- Car seat standard, height or weight range, manufacture and expiry date
- Whether the car seat has ever been in a collision, and whether you are the original owner
- Fold dimensions, and all accessories included
Brand, model and what is included: “Silver Cross Wave Travel System — Pram, Carrycot, Car Seat and Adapters”. Listing every component in the title is what separates a travel system price from a pram price. State the car seat expiry year in the description.
Preparing and photographing it
- Establish exactly which components you have and whether they all belong to the same system.
- Check the car seat element carefully: its expiry date, and whether it has ever been in a collision. If it has, do not sell it for use.
- Wash the fabrics, test the fold, the brake and every attachment click.
- All components laid out together in one frame
- The pram configuration and the pushchair configuration, both set up
- The car seat with its expiry date stamp visible
- The adapters, raincover and every accessory included
When it sells best, and handing it over
Consistently strong. Complete systems from recognised brands sell within days; incomplete ones sell as prams for considerably less.
Bulky and multi-part, so collection is usual. Lay every component out at handover and let the buyer check the inventory against your listing.
What buyers ask
Which iCandy model holds its value best?
The Peach, because it converts from a single to a double. Second-time parents search specifically for a convertible chassis, which keeps demand steady.
Do I need to include the adapters?
Include everything you have and list each piece by name. Adapters and converters are expensive separately, and a complete set sells far faster than a bare chassis.
How much is an iCandy travel system worth?
Roughly £104 to £520 depending on condition, against £80 to £400 for travel systems generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
