Hello all...Okay, so I know this is nothing particularly exciting to most, but I think it is a really nice find! Last week I purchased a 1990s Black&Decker Dustbuster off eBay, new in box for £20, delivered! Bargain! 
This model was one of the Top of the line Dustbusters as it has the motor Driven power head for stairs and sofas etc, also had the small cleaning tools and the 6v battery, so it was almost like the Dyson V8 of its day...I expect this model would of sold for about £50 at the time!
So pleased to of gotten this machine! The quality is unbelievably high! It is a shame we don't tend to see quality like that now...Of course, this Dustbuster is made in the UK as you would expect...Less can be said for todays models!
I took plenty of photos so you get a good luck at this machine, I really like it. I hope the batteries charge, they had no charge in them when I tried it so if this machine was packaged with flat batteries, then there is a good chance that they will charge up and hold their charge...Just got to wait the recommended 16 hours now...Time will tell and I will report back tomorrow if it has or not.
Anyway, here are the photos, enjoy,
