Bison for sale on eBay

[s31463221]

Hey guys, I was perusing eBay for a few minutes on my lunch break and ran across a vintage Bison vacuum for sale. It's the brown Centurion II model and since I already have one, I thought I'd pass this along to you guys in case someone would like to add this one to their collection.

I just noticed somebody is selling the green one for $999
Good luck

I believe the green one, for $999, has a problem. You'll note the photo of the fan case, and drive shaft. The drive shaft is metal, and square. It appears that the plastic belt drive shaft, which the fan shaft is inserted into, has broken off. This is a common problem. Parts are no longer available to fix it. The buyer is going to be REALLY upset that the brush roll will not turn, and can't be fixed, after they buy this beast.

I am not going to pay $999 for a "collector" vacuum no matter what brand or kind it is.If the machine has a broken drive--then its not worth ANYTHING since you can't use it.1 grand is a awful lot to pay for a machine to look at than use!By the time you add shipping-the price would be over a grand.And what will get broken during shipment???The fragile plastic motor case???

Oh man,

Better act fast. The seller dropped the price to a reasonable $950 + $85 shipping. What a bargain on a broken vacuum, that you can't get parts for.
