Bags and belts.... Hi Steve Tom G is sending me a decent supply of bags and filters- It has a lifetime belt :) Problem is if you order more on the same order you become liable for Import tax etc which is more than the postage..... My last Kirby bags came from that seller- I can confirm they...

Looks good :) Pity about the shipping but I paid £25 on my NIB Ensign Stealth- maybe you could offer £10 less? Seamus
