£435 for a kid's Thermomix!!
« on: April 17, 2013, 10:41:26 am »
Just saw this on UK eBay - someone got ripped off to the tune of £435 for a kid's Thermomix  :o (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/THERMOMIX-TM31-VAROMA-VORWERK-BIMBY-NEW-/261195130710?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Food_SM&hash=item3cd0716756 - beggars belief. Just shows you need to check the description to make sure what it is you're bidding for. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is  :-))
If music be the food of love, play a tune on your Thermomix for your loved ones.

Maybe they think it is the real deal.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Haha. That's pretty cute though. Imagine the mess my kids would make if they had that.

They must have thought so to bid so high Cookie. Caveat emptor and read the sales blurb - I don't know of any "real" Thermomix that can run on 4 x 1.5v batteries! ???

They obviously thought they were buying a real Thermomix, it's so easy to get caught when you're looking for a bargain priced TMX because you can't afford the price of a new one.

Helene of Super Kitchen Machine mentions a toy Bimby, but I couldn't find one on her link.
