Haven't seen this many since I was a kid and vacuum store owner needed to clear his place out before retiring.

OMG! That is amazing! They look like they have a couple of machines I would buy if I were there.
Centralvacman did u buy any machines from them?

 

[ohio_tuec]

Oooooh, save the Dial-A-Matics for me!!!!

In real big letters: "$10"

in real tiny letters: "and up"

That kind of bulls#!t really ticks me off. The guy probably had one (if any) sweeper at $10, then the rest were a lot more.

A couple weeks ago a graphics shop across the street from one of my clients had a big "art sale" -- the large sign across the store in big bold letter "ART PRINTS $19.99" and, you got it, in teeny tiny letters, "and up." I went over to have a look, and gave them a piece of my mind after asking which ones were $19.99 and they could not show me a single one. Most of the stuff they were selling (which was real crap) were $39.99 "and up."

the owner of this shop

that I took the photo at want the most freindly,I`d give you Guys the vacuums for $2 each if i had them at my home

 

[talktotravis]

Those machines look pretty gruff--at least get a leaf blower if you're going to have a sale! Still, I would be a liar if I said I wouldn't be like a little kid in a candy shop there.

 

[bigbubbacain]

What I'm really eager to see is the machines at the back of the pile. There could be treasure back there..... Where are the canisters? Not a single one in the pile!

 

[myvacsrock]

I will pay you and shipping if you can get me that monkey wards/eureka with cord winder behind the store owner and behind the red panasonic....see it???? Let me know!

There might even be a Hoover Innovation in the pile. I would love to have one of those....

What a Pile of Junk

The store owner probably bought (buys) the trade in vacs from the Kirby salesmen. These are machines he DOESN'T want to rebuild and sell, since no one (except some club members) wants them. When new Bissell PowerForce, 12 amps with on-board tools, are $39 at Wal-Mart, why would anyone want to buy a Sharp with a broken headlight lens, full of dirt, with a missing front door?

Or a Fantom Fury without the dirt container for $10? Or a Windtunnel without a front door for $10. The only good machine in the entire pile is the Dial and The Eureka with cord winder.

I have lots of friends in the vac business who regularly send these types of machines to the crusher. At our St. Louis Mini Meet, I'll take the group to some vac shops who will GIVE these types of cleaners away.

not totally

I would not say its all junk, there may indeed be some diamonds in the rough in that mess, all thats needed is a good EYE to discren whats worth saving, and what should be landfill.

Given all the leaves and stuff around those cleaners, it kinda looks like they have been outside for a while!

And the Sharp's fron door is not missing, its laying right next to that Hoover Convertible.

 

[petek]

Do I see a Concept Two with the mini vac still attached to it?

 

[dial-a-matic]

dam power drive

i will pay good money plus shipping for that dam power drive!!!let me know how much it is if you get the chance!

 

[dial-a-matic]

Dial-a-matic power drive

I will pay you and shipping if you see how much that power drive dam is up front.

 

[swingette]

i see several Hoover Concept models. the vac dealer may not be able to make a good profit by reselling these, but that doesnt mean they arent fixable and a hell of a cleaner.

 

[myvacsrock]

please central-vacman let us know!!
