CL add of the day award goes to....

[vacuumfreeeke]

Well, after just finding an ad for a Eurica Vaccume Swiper and recovering from laughing spell, I came across this fabulous ad.

400 dollars for a FRANKENKIRBY!

Is the seller optimistic or maybe drunk? Even with the attachments and Handibutler, I don't think it's worth even half that! You can buy a use Sentria for less, and that model isn't so old or rare that it should command such a price!

How dare you Bobby!!!

If that's your real name! Eurica is my cousin. And I'll have you know that she is quite famous. Ah huh, that's right! She is the best known vaccume swiper this country has ever seen. She's been accused of vaccume heists all over the country. Never convicted however!!! So, before you fully recover from your "laughing spell", look around - you missing any vaccumes?

I just couldn't resist!

That is probably the worst spelling of those three words I've ever seen! And all together! LOL

It deserved to be made fun of.

Thanks for the laugh,

Rick

i love how the add says the perfect xmass gift, and it has red trim and green wheels.

This guy emailed me asking of my interest in his machine. When I declined, noting what a mishmosh of colors and trim it was, he got a bit huffy about it, saying he "didn't want to make a fortune on it, just wanted to see it go to a collector." Well, given its condition, even with all the (not rare) accessories, I'm afraid he'd have to lop off one of those zeros on his $400 asking price in order to entice anyone.
