the strange thing with ebay is that the next time it could go for just $0.99!!!

[brazen20au]

yes i know! ebay is crazy

O.k.......somethings going on!

Another thermoserve (used this time) has been listed on ebay....but under a different sellers name, and with no feedback as yet.
Interestingly it is listed at a starting price of $60.00......but.....the picture is the same picture used as in the $212.5. acution.
I think someone is getting a little greedy....don't you?  or possibly someone has copied the picture from other auction.  Lets see what this one makes!

hmmmmm fascinating...........

ohhh someone trying to cash in on the previous sale i wonder

i would love to be a fly on the wall when the thermoserver arrives at the purchasers house and they go 'f*** i just spent $200 on a bowl!"  and then have to break the news to their husband!!

WOW  I thought the thermoserver that went for $70 on ebay was a lot!!!!

ROFL - love the way everyone assumes a woman purchased it !!!!!

My bet is it is more likely to be a man who hasn't done enough research

I have several SS insulated bowls, all made by Vollrath and all purchased at a restaurant supply.  They range from .75  qt to  10 qt  and have ridges on the outside, which makes them easier to hold when loaded with heavy stuff.  I'm pretty sure I got the entire bunch for less than that price on ebay.   Some are round and some are square. 
As I recall the biggest was around $50.00  some ten years ago when I was doing a lot of catering.   

If you can find a restaurant supply store that sells to the public, I'm sure you can get a better price on something similar, if you need an insulated bowl.    I don't know if Vollrath is sold in Australia, but they produce excellent products.  I have a lot of their cookware also.
I've got six of the little ones and use them for salsas and other stuff I want to keep chilled for buffet service. 
The biggest one always holds salad greens.

They're lovely bowls Andie.

I bought a giant insulated bowl - 10L - from Deals Direct for $30-something recently.  It's great for large amounts (we have a large family, so that's frequent), but I love the Thermoserver more.  I think I'll try to get another one sometime, but not for $200+ from eBay!?  My big insulated bowl is very ugly, btw - plastic outer!
