    Trash Found Triple S Versamate (Sebo 350/1st Gen Windsor Versamatic)

    If its a trigger switch the spring is likely bent back too far over time and just needs to be bent back forward a little more, also likely needs to be polished, I'm sure after 30 something years of use it's gotten dirty. The Shark Navigators with the swivel neck all get this problem with that...

    Neither was I, but hey that's what you find when doing research on hyper-specific models of vacuums! Like that Windtunnel T-Series I found that burned someones house down due to the cord catching fire and setting the vacuum on fire. This stuff just shows up.

    I said it already, 2005. That's when it was sold and when the manual was printed. There's also a Panasonic Quickdraw MC-V7305 from 1998, this one likely uses parts from that model. Then there is further a Panasonic QuickDraw MC-V5117 from 1996 - which looks like the start of this series of...

    What is the Weirdest Vacuums You've Seen?

    He is likely a franchisee. This same thing happens with Kirby too. They let any hokey apply to get a license, and as long as you have collateral to buy a dozen or so vacuums on lease and sell them on contract, and a retail space, you can do whatever you want. In my state there was a Kirby dealer...

    What is this?

    hey, there you go, nothing gone to waste! often times you get the whole lot with the vacuum or whatever parts for cheaper than just the one part on its own too. ive gotten a kirby or two WITH attachment sets for LESS than the cost of ONE attachment kit! ($40-45)

    It's the date that that part mold was made/last time it was revised, it's not indicative of when a vacuum left the assembly line to a specific day and week. Brands that churn out so many models per year, like Hoover or Eureka, might have date wheels within a year or two of manufacture. This is...

    What is the Weirdest Vacuums You've Seen?

    Also another key thing to consider - nobody owns anything. Their house is rented, their car is rented, their phones are rented, they own nothing and it gets taken away at a moments notice the second they stop paying the bill, so why would they care about fixing anything? They just use it until...

    Spur-of-the moment vacquisiton...

    All I could find left on the Internet was an Amazon listing from 2007, but I can believe it's likely no different than retail MSRP or it was sold through wholesale. The $159 price point was a typical middle of the road price for this kind of thing. This was already an old platform by the mid...

    OJ SUPER JUICE WHEELS WITH HOOVER NSK BEARINGS Vintage Skateboard 70's - eBay

    Would be interesting if that really happened. I have no idea about skateboard parts or skateboarding - especially in the 1970s.

    What is this?

    My entire parts closet thrives on buying one vacuum and getting a dozen different attachments from a dozen different vacuums that do not go to it. :ROFLMAO:

    The Panasonic Quickdraw MC-V7314 came out in 2005 and retailed for $159.99. That would be $266.08 in 2025 dollars.

    This Old House - Muskogee,OK Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Salesman Photographs & Ephemera 1924

    So today I learned that the TV show This Old House has an eBay store (apparently since 1998), and I only ran across this by total coincidence while trying to find something else. I have no idea if this price is way too much, probably is, but these are some really cool old documents and photos...
