I've seen one of these toys on ebay sell for about $800 au. It's just a big con job, be careful.
-
But from what I have seen on ebay, the people that have sold them are pointing out clearly that they are a toy! I wonder if they are still being bid on mistakenly, or are there some really spoilt kids?
-
YES I WONDERED THE SAME THING!
-
LOL I seen these a while back, they run on batteries! weird and expensive ???
-
OMG It went for $710!!!! (just was leaving some feedback on ebay and I had put it on watch, so just noticed it)
-
How much do they regularly retail for?

I have seen them on there too and couldn't believe the price for a toy!!!
-

Can't remember but it was mentioned in a thread somewhere, think they were an incentive buy and around 80 or 100 euros?
-
That price is crazy!!! We have one here that thankfully was a gift. You really can only mix milk in it. The motor is run on batteries and very weak. Personally, I might buy one for $50 but no more than that. It's just a novelty thing.

My friends and I were doing canteen duty at school a few weeks ago and as usual, the kids were playing with the toys in the Out of School Hours Care room. My DS (who is 5 and may be even more in love with the TMX than me...) picked up a toy coffee maker for the stove (you know the sort that looks like two bits the same stacked on top of each other?) and he very excitedly says to his friend (who also has a TMX at home) "Look Ardy, it's a Thermomix!!!"
My distributor would be so proud... of course this is also the same child who, quite seriously, asked his grandfather if he had paid too much for his glasses, because next time he should go to Spec Savers....

That's so cute. :)

LOL Kerryn.
What did his grandfather say? Maybe need to keep him away from adverts, lol.
But good to see the next generation of consultants are getting ready.

Gotta love what comes out of the mouths of kids sometimes.
My almost 2.5 year old grandson was playing around with his food here the other day and I told him to eat his meat. 'That's not meat, it's chicken' he told me - too smart for me :D

Children are so quick these days JD.A friend recently tried to discipline her 3 year old in the supermarket while she shopped.
On the final warning she scooped him up to take him back to the car, as she was leaving he decided to shout out loud" I want my Mummy"
-
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D Boy, that could have got her into trouble.

His grandfather got a bit sniffy that "no he *didn't* get them at Spec Savers and is perfectly happy with them thanks!".
It's sad really that my older DS rarely watched commercial television at the same age. This one though watches what his big brother does much of the time and he is a marketer's dream! The things he repeats back to me.. another time my ears were itchy and he starts to tell me all excitedly that he knows just what I need to clean my ears without damaging them - who knew that there was stuff that could clean your ears, let alone what it was called!
He repeats what I say too, so I guess it's not all bad. Except when he walks past people playing with those claw games outside the supermarket and says "Oh Mummy, they really should just flush their money down the toilet shouldn't they?"

How cute. I guess it can get you into trouble sometimes though.
