Kirby d80

[jke842001]

Good evening all! My name is Jacob and I have come to the realization that I may be a vac-o-holic.
A little over a year ago I was perusing Craigslist and come upon a kirby ultimate diamond for 25.00. And the rest is history. To the point..

Does anyone know where I might be able to find a complete kirby d80 with attachments for a reasonable price? I have casually browsed "flea-bay" for the last couple mos and can't seem to find one for less than $200.00. I don't need perfect condition and truthfully I love the gratification of buffing an old kirby to a new shine. I just simply want one!! I love the GREEN machine. Is there a store somewhere or does anyone have an extra that could be parted with for less than a body limb. I am just looking for a good project and am absolutely set on the lovely d80.

Thank you everyone!!
Jacob

what ive done to get complete attachment sets is get the vac by itself, and get the other attachments as a group or in complete parts as you can. getting all of it at once happens almost never...

I would certainly be open to that

D80 on eBay just sold for $601.17

Can't believe how much this machine just sold for.

Whoever paid that much for that d80 is a fool. I've seen d80's at salvation army for $25. And entire atattchments sets for d80's for $50-$100. It wasn't even in like new condition and was missing the handi butler and rug reno. NOT worth much at all with all that missing.

it just needs a pin that slides into the handle/motor
runs really good. i got this one for $2.00 at a flea market.
YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU FIND AT FLEA MARKETS!
