Panasonic MC-E417 (US Model)

Saw this just recently on Facebook Marketplace and thought I'd share for anyone that is interested in it. I tried to buy it but the seller was being rude after asking some serious questions about it especially that the seller offered to ship it out to me, so I backed out because of it. But maybe someone else may take it instead of me as I'm confident I'll find one in my area someday since I once had a local Panasonic dealer that likely sold one of these before.

For those of you that don't know, this is a very rare Panasonic. Originally designed and built in the European market but just like the Hoover Innovations, we also had these imported over here as well. And these weren't the only Panasonics that we had imported over here, they also imported other models here as well like the ICON model known as the Performance Plus Platinum. Not to mention the Miele Powerhouse uprights that were made by Panasonic but just branded as Miele.

Wow…did we really get 120 volt Panasonic Icon uprights over here in North America? Always thought the design was really cool with those gigantic wheels…..

Yeah we did or at least here in the US. Next time I ever do come across with one of those, I'll take a picture and show it here.

Just letting everyone know I tried to buy this item, and the seller never shipped it and made zero communication to ship it. Tried over 4 times to buy the item and each time after 3 days Facebook cancelled the order automatically because item was not shipped. Seller is a 100% scammer and needs to be banned from Facebook.

Their profile is also locked and hidden from messaging so you can not communicate with them to ask if they have shipped yet or not either.
