HUskyvac!
I'm confused by you. From your first posting about this machine all you've done is complain. You haven't liked the lack of communication from the seller and now that the machine has arrived you are even more unhappy!
As you stated you bought the machine primarily for the "carpet fluffer." AKA the floor polisher. That is from a Kirby Tradition and you might not be able to use it on your machine dues to the differences in the speed selector, on which I'm not an expert.
I want to know why you are so unhappy with the purchase! You reviewed all the pictures online, you approved and then bought the machine and now all you want to do is complain about a lack of communication, a poorly packed and shipped machine as well as a it being shipped with a full bag and items that aren't Kirby! You got what the seller was selling! You and no one else talked you into buying this machine. If you think you were unfairly targeted by the seller, well, you can ask for your money back from Ebay. But that's unfair to the seller! No matter what, "let the buyer beware!" You and you alone made the decision to buy this machine. Communication from Ebay sellers is getting to be less and less. As I said before did you expect "white glove" treatment?
This is all what newer buyers experience! I've purchases many machines and have taken my knocks! But I now communicate before I purchase with the seller asking questions, I'll give guidelines regarding packing and shipping and yes! I give instruction to make sure the bag is empty or removed. The less weight the better. Buyers remorse? You can only blame yourself.
By the way, if you want to be a true member here, you don't hide behind your screen name!
