So I just saw this tonight. It's in pretty good shape, has all the attachments on it, and it sounds good to me. Should I really go back and get this tomorrow? I'm not exactly sure if it's even worth getting. I really don't like canisters but I would like to have one of these in my collection.

Um.... Yeah! It's worth a lot more than that, as long as it s decently clean, and runs well. They are easy to take apart and clean, if the fans are dirty, etc. I'm sure if you buy it, and change your mind, you would have no trouble selling it. For example, I would gladly buy it.
 
Update

I went there today and it was gone. That's alright because I know I can still find one in better shape and hopefully I can get the D4 SE model instead because I like the power nozzle better than the SE model.
 
The one I am specifically talking about is an SE with a PN1 powerhead and a dolly with some appliques on it. Since I know Dustin from Greatvacs, he said within like the next 10 years or so when the prices go down on the SE models, that's when I was hopefully going to get one at a good deal.

If you're looking for the best cleaning nozzle, the PN2 is way better than the predecessor, I've had both..just an opinion, no scientific research was done. I think I do remember a bad rap for the earlier nozzle in Consumer Reports, but might be mistaking, could've been another source.
 
The PN2 is a better powerhead but I like the PN1 powerhead better for collectable reasons and I also think it's more fun to use. I used to like the PN2 alot when I used to vacuum my Neighbor's house with their SE but after a while, I got bored with it and I also don't like the trigger switch that goes on the PN2. Other than that I wasn't going to use a Rainbow to clean my house with it because I don't like canisters and I think Rainbow is more annoying to use than most canisters that I've used.
