Hello all! Haven't been in the collecting game for quite some years now, but just got a NIB Hoover Concept One off of FB Marketplace for an absolute steal. I am having isues uploading a photo from mobile, but plan on adding photos once I am off of work later today. Question is, open to take photos for sale? Or leave sealed to sell? Ideally list on eBay or do a private sale here, and I honestly have no idea to reasonably price it. I'm unable to find any lick of info on the last NIB Concept One sold. Any info here definitely helps! Thanks all!

I'd open it up to take pictures to confirm that it's legit. Now one thing I'm willing to bet is that because it sat in the box for many years, the bearings are dry so that would decrease the value. When I watched a YouTube video of someone buying a NIB Concept, it didn't sounded very healthy.

People that buy NIB vacuums do it for clout or to flip for triple the price, they don't care about condition. Only a few buy NIB to use for video demonstrations and actually use it.

Easy there cowboy. I have some NIB vacuums that I cherish as representatives of what these vacuums looked like brand new. I am not going to flip them for three times the price. They are a valuable part of my collection. Most of my vacuums are well used and have battle scars and maybe some worn out parts. Having an NIB example is just plain cool. It is rare to be able to see a 40 or 50 year old vacuum that is still in the original box, unused. A real time capsule.
