Anyone ordered recently from the bloo kangaroo website? Can you explain how stockings work? How fast do they sell out?

I've never bought anything from there, but typically a "stocking" means that the store owner will post her next batch of completed carriers at the date and time listed. So, behind the scenes, that means that she sews until she has several available, creates the listings, and then sets those listings to show up to the public all at once. Interested buyers will be hitting refresh on that page right around that moment in hopes of seeing the new carriers and purchasing one before they are sold out.

Super popular hyena cart vendors have been known to sell out in minutes. I don't know how fast this one goes, but I've definitely heard the name before. She's been around since 2008 and still stocking her site, so I'm going to say pretty popular. I wouldn't bank on them being around for hours or days...it's possible, but best to browse as much as you can beforehand and be ready to purchase right then.

Thanks! There isn't anything to browse ahead of time, which is part of the problem! But after talking to people who have used them, I am not sure it will be there fit I want. Back to the drawing board.

Well, there are descriptions and examples within each category. So, not the actual carriers that will be stocked, but details of how they fit and a couple galleries of carriers made in the past...so enough past items to give you a feel for what you like and what might or might not work before you have to make a quick decision.

For example, 2012 carriers:

You might start a thread on options...I'm a few years out of date now, but I'll bet the babywearing mamas here could chime in on what they own and like.
