They never list prices on Chinese sites. You are supposed to ask about the price. The reason for this is a large company like this has many different price schedules. They first want to know how many you are buying then they will give you a price.
Some wholesalers will want 500 or more of each model, some retailers may call them and want 5 of each model.
I think this is the reason.

I don't know if they will sell retail. You should shoot them an email and find out.

If you need a KJ 8210, contact me I sell it for a very reasonable price, lower than the production price.

I have four Kamjove kettles, 120 volts. I don't know the model numbers, but my favorite is stainless exterior. One I have at work has a black finish and all of the kettles have auto shut off. I recently brought one back from China (120 vac too) and I carry it with me when I travel.
There are a number of vendors in the states, one that comes to mind is Birdpick (
http://www.birdpick.com/index.html).
One pot I have used almost daily at home for four years and it's fantastic. Beware of pricing: I wouldn't recommend paying any more than 30-40 USD (although the one I bought in Nanjing was 5 USD . . .).
A good friend of mine who is a serious collector of Pu-Erh swears by Kamjove pots. He has some of the finest teas I tasted in Jaingsu province.

I am curious - how fast do these 120V kettles boil water? (full pot).
Also, are the interiors free of plastics & solder joints and other sources of
contaminants? (especially those that would be in direct contact with boiling water).
Oh, and I checked that ebay site - none of their kettles were 120V.
