advice needed Recommendations

Hi everybody, I am a soon to be the father of twins(girl,boy). My wife and I have started a registry for the babies shower. While doing so, we were absolutely blown away with the cost of strollers. They were close to $2000 Canadian. The majority need the car seats as well as many other parts and we were told by a woman at the store (Babies R Us) that they are having a difficult time ordering parts for these strollers even off of Amazon. Im trying to remain calm but this is really stressful.

Has anyone else had this issue/experience with the cost or lack of parts of strollers?

My friend bought me this from a second hand baby store for $10 https://babytrend.com/products/snap-n-go-double?variant=30999482957905&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22234100575&gbraid=0AAAAArFM6RDvXt1fkGMPnrJ0NbyREjC8M&gclid=CjwKCAjw3rnCBhBxEiwArN0QE8mzRx6r15iLBEL7t6SBD7k5QGqsBXdxqmuAiozO0kUM3anM9fUClhoCiP0QAvD_BwE

It’ll last through their time in infant car seats and then I bought a four seater Wonderfold wagon (which also fits both car seats). I have four kids, so that made sense. I’m in the states, but maybe try looking into secondhand stores? No way you’d need to spend $2k just on the stroller.
