    I think the price was mis-typed. That same coffee maker is all over the place on the internet for about $90.

    However, I think it's hysterical that it won't work in the USA yet he won't ship it anywhere else! Er...come again?? :shock:

    If you mean one like in the picture, you should not be using it - not safe. The handle can separate, dropping a pot of hot coffee on you.

    You're right - I thought it so funny I got bold enough to send the following question to the seller:

    "YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING??? It DOESN'T WORK IN THE USA - you DON'T SHIP INTL - where the heck do you find someone you can ship to, OR THAT WILL PAY THAT RIDICULOUS PRICE!!! (and you have 10+ of them)"

    Of course it wasn't posted on the item & I'm pretty sure I won't get a reply. I noticed he has a lot of items for $999.99 that are no where near that price other places. I can't believe there are actually people out there who pay those prices, but guess it takes all kinds & there must be, he sure has sold a lot of things :shock: :shock:

    Do they think that machine is made out of gold.
    I have a one cup I gave $19.95 and I also have a 10-12 cup one that I think only cost me $9.95.
    That price is $860 too much.

    Did it come with the house she lived in? :roll:

    When my coffeemaker finally craps the bed, I'm just going to buy a grinder and use my French press. I already buy whole-bean coffee (my coffeepot has a built-in grinder), and it is far superior to anything that comes pre-ground. I've had this pot for about ten years, and the latch that holds the grinder closed has broken, but it's nothing a piece of tape doesn't take care of. It still works, so I can't bring myself to junk it just yet.

    WOW !!!! And I thought I used really good coffee when I get the Seatles Best, Eight O'Clock or even Dunkin Dounuts kind, sometimes I grind my own for a pot. I have never seen anything like this site. (so sheltered)
