Thread II.......Oh dear

I hate ringing people as well Frigg...I'm coveting a Xari!!!

I've just sold my Super Dreamer

oh cool! im glad it's sold ...now you can buy a xari

hahaha! the Mima bug is spreading!

I don't think £35 will make much of a dint!!! Now if the Go sells then yes that'd be a great help...But do i really need one??? Seeing as though i have a Donkey???

Mind you i'm doing my first NCT sale tomorrow so i might make a bit more money...Crazily pricing everything up all night.

Do you think JL have a mima on the shop floor? Or will they be "to order" ?
Thinking of going to southampton for a nosey.
Is the seat material similar to the bumbo?
Secretly I just want to take my Vista to west quay and whizz about filling the shopping basket! [hgrin]

MonkeySpunk In solihull they have a kobi and xari on display but it's only certain stores that have them.

The seat material is far nicer than the Bumbo. It's not plastic feeling. It's more like a smooth leather. I don't think you can compare a Mima to a Donkey - you just can't even begin. A Donkey is probably more functional and practical whereas the Mimas are a practical amazing experience!

Suzie, have you seen one in real life? If you haven't I'm sure you'll want it!
Monkeys, the seat pad is amazing! I'd love to sit in a chair with a liner like the Mima's.

On way to southampton now. JL there are on the kobi list.
They are Japanese aren't they? I have friends in Japan. Wonder what the price difference would be?
Will have to see if I get a nosey in JL as have h with me. Trip is really to get bed for Ds at IKEA.

oh monkey! you should have said you were going to southampton!,its my nearest store,and i needed to go anyway...we could have had a mini meet up,next to the Mimas

The Mima's are a Dutch company but obviously have Japanese names for some reason...No aswellasyou i've not seen one in real life and my JL in Nottingham aren't selling them...My nearest is Solihull, otherwise the JL near Manchester...Why oh why can't you buy them online...At this rate i'll be selling the Donkey even though i swore i wouldn't part with it until DD no longer used pushchairs.

they have a Japanese name,because Davy Kho the designer is Japanese.

or at least,of japanese descent....i think he is actually Dutch,living in spain....

Too much squabbling in IKEA = no chance of a peek in JL.
Maybe see you there another day..

ohh,i love a trip to ikea minus the squabbling though...

I love Ikea as well...That's an idea as tomorrows the last day of the sale i think.

Some cheeky mare is selling a mono Donkey on eBay for £1400 which is £500 more than the list price!!!

i saw that,its been up for ages!

I don't check Donkey's very often or Bugaboo customs...I'll have a peek later...How can Amazon's international postage be so much cheaper than the others...I can have a Flite delivered for £7.39 (8-16 days) or £23.16 (2-4 days)...My other Bumblerides were £60 and £100!!!

Are JL selling the Cosmo version of the Xari...DH likes the look of that better...And i like the black frame, which is why i got a black Oyster...Stands out in an understated way...And i've ordered a Ruby Flite than should arrive Wednesday to Friday.

On the Cheeky Rascals site it says you can order from any JL store but if you want to view before you buy, you have to visit the listed stores.

Why would someone try to sell a Donkey for that price when you can just buy it new with warranty etc for less?

suzie I'm about 85% sure they do the cosmo version of the Xari. I'm pretty sure I saw it as an option when we were looking at it.
I'm sure you could order it over the phone too.

I'm soooo disappointed that we couldn't go to JL, but the kids were awful after lunch. We just put them in the car and went home after IKEA.
To add insult to injury, the bed we went to buy "kura" was "lost" in the warehouse, so we couldn't buy it. hoping they find the missing pallet by next week!
