VidaXL massive praise!

When we had that 2 days of summer last week husband mentioned he'd like a new BBQ, a smoker one.
I wasn't really entirely sure what one was so headed to Amazon for a browse. Whilst there I came across what appeared to be a beast of a barbie for £22 sold via VidaXL
I scratched my head a bit and studied carefully half expecting it to be a doll house one, couldn't see anything to suggest it wasn't a full size one so took the chance it was either an outstanding clearance bargain or, as suspected, a misprice.
Checked the listing next day and it had changed price... to £210. I sat back and awaited the cancellation email.
Imagine my shock when I had a dispatch confirmation, and my even greater shock when the BBQ turned up on Saturday morning.
The thing is so large we had to buy a small car cover for it as standard BBQ covers won't touch it
So huge praise to VidaXL. You didn't have to honour that and yet you did. I shall be needing a few bits for the garden and you will be the first company I try.
