Srry thats my old phone number. What is a good time to call you?

Hi Evan, I am here now if you get this in time - 6 pm PST. Leaving in about 45 minutes, back later. Will be in and out tomorrow if you want to call, as long as it's not too early

THX

btw, the seller said the material it's made from is aluminum, not pot metal. Anyone know for sure??

Yes Charles, it is aluminum. Its slightly later, value priced counterpart (the 575) used pot metal. I empathize with you, as a similar experience happened to me a few years ago. I bought from an eBay seller a collection of Air-Way Sanitary System parts, and a twin-motors Air-Way. I was so excited, as it would be first twin-motor I'd ever seen. When the cleaner arrived, the metal was broken right at the swivel neck. It was obvious it was the result of poor packing. The seller did refund most of my purchase price, of course I would have rather had the vacuum intact. I've thought about the possibility of getting it fixed (if it can be fixed), but even as such, I doubt it would ever look 100%.

Hi O-T, thx for the info. Good to know what the metal is.
