to the Tri Star lover
I wish I had joined this group two months ago. I had a Tri Star DXL, I needed room so I gave it to the local thrift store... another vac I wish I had kept. To Musicinabottle, there are some good Kirby fixer-uppers on eBay. The prices are not too bad, but offer a little less than they are asking and maybe you can get a price that both you and the seller find acceptable. I had a very early Compact some years ago, pretty beat up and it's bag stank(yuck!!). It, along with most of my collection had to be given up when I moved into much smaller digs. But, I kept the core of the collection and I am now building it up again... and running out of space. email me if you have Kirby questions, I was fairly good at Kirby repair.
