  Not sure about US prices as I purchase everything in the UK, but a size 5 new wrap from Girasol would normally be around 25 to 30 dollars less than that over here. I've seen some size 5 Girasols go for new for nearly 50 dollars less than that price...so there can be a lot of variation depending on how rare a specific weave is. I'm not a big Girasol person so I'm not sure if double rainbow is a rare one that warrants that price or not.

  Okay, from what I have heard it is a rare hard to find pattern but I don't really know too much about them. It's from a local mama and several people mentioned that if she put it on the big swap it would be snatched up very quickly and she said it was rare and took her several months of swap stalking to get her hands on one... I just don't want to overpay as this is a splurge anyway, as in I feel guilty buying this but REALLY want it.

  I looked and see that I can get a couple of kinds of wraps brand new for no more than $120-$140 but if it's rare and broken in maybe it's worth $150? I need to know I can turn this wrap around quickly if I get in a jam and need the $$, so I really don't want to overpay.
  

  I need a Gira expert lol but I don't want to post on the Baby Wearing Love & Support facebook group because that local mama is in it and I don't want her to think badly of me... KWIM?

  I did some googling and it seems that particular pattern is hard to come by and you probably would be able to turn it around quickly... maybe not make a profit on it but at least get what you paid for, I think.

  Buuuuut that's not from any experience or anything I know, just random googling so take it with a grain of salt!

  Ok, so just took a look at one of the UK selling page sand someone is selling double rainbow in a 4 for $130 US dollars plus shipping costs, if that helps give you an idea of the value.
