Turbo James was genuinely avaliable to buy! - GreatGordonFan - 12-26-2021

For a while I have been trying to tell everyone that I did genuinely see the cancelled turbo james avaliable to buy. However I never had any proof...
Until Now!
I searched the URL of the amazon listing onto the web archive and this is what showed up:

I finally have proof I did not make my claims up!
Of course bear in mind I am not saying it was turbo james. I am simply saying that the product was indeed purchasable, unlike other cancelled items like marion or millie, who also had amazon listings.

@Chrisjo, My point is not that it exists, my point is that at some point this item had a price tag and was in stock. At least the listing says so.
I know far too well that I previously waffled on about thee listing in the other thread, but in this thread, I am showing everyone that my claim that I saw it and it was In Stock and not unavaliable was not false

Also I am completely aware that this is amazon.in after all, so it's probably not the item.
However, I do want to know what the reason for cancelation was. Perhaps they were having issues with james being turbo as he has to drag a tender around.

So according to that listing, Amazon India were selling it for half the M.R.P.?

What do you mean by mrp?

M.R.P. = Manufacturer's Recommended Price
