TURBOPOWER

[sensotronic]

If you don't want to ring up, just email them and ask for a price, then you can have a heart attack without having to hold your phone. They did say that they could supply the K3 Premium to me direct, but I didn't ask for a price as I assumed it would be higher than I could get it from Amazon or Freenet.

 

[madabouthoovers]

Well, I'll have to hang fire until I know how much I'm gonna have to pay on these auctions from CeeJay.


If I don't win anything, I may consider buying a K3 Premium.


I assume they will still be making the K3 Premium after the new EU law change in Sept, just limited to 1600W.


With this law change, I reckon we might see more power heads on cylinders, as less motor power will no longer drive turbo brushes properly. I just don't know what will happen yet, and we are now less than 6 months before the new law on motor power. Sellers are all still merrily selling 1700W+ machines at full price - I don't think many are taking this new law seriously.

Most of the general public will not know about the new law so sellers will be shifting stock at full price for as long as they can. I too think and hope that more cylinder models will have electrically driven power heads, especially when the limit reaches 900 watts.

The law does not just limit the wattage on cleaners. From September all cleaners will have an energy and performance rating sticker similar to those found on washing machines etc. Ratings will include noise levels, dust pick up and emissions with an A to G scale. I think some manufacturers objected to the new law not because of the wattage limit but the fact that they will be rated on performance and noise levels. Hopefully we will see less noisy cleaners when manufacturers have to display the noise level on the label.

Packaging concerns

In order to quell any concerns about packaging I have enclosed pictures of the U2462 being packaged. Most of the cleaners are already packed and awaiting address labels.

I know I keep on asking but when are you listing dyson dc04 Zorbester By the way the model number is Dyson DC04 zorbester

 

[madabouthoovers]

I think with the price that that's going for at the moment - it should be packed in gold leaf!  (lol)


Alexhoovers94 will be pleased - he's the high bidder (I think)

Its Zorbster Josh, not Zorbester, and I'd imagine it'll be listed after Easter now, with CEEJAY being closed until next Tuesday

All safely packaged for the journey to it's new home! The worlds most expensive Hoover Turbopower 2. :-D

 

[madabouthoovers]

All safely packaged for its journey to Alex, who would be prepared to walk over hot coals to own it (his words - reply 180)! He wants to worship and cherish it like a God. He will have a special plinth to mount it on, and to be able to gaze upon its beauty!

How much the the TP1 and TP2 retail for?

 

[madabouthoovers]

The U2462 originally sold for about £150. Its £300 and rising now, because Alex wants it REALLY badly.


As I said before - an old item is only worth what someone is prepared to pay!

 

[parwaz786]

Cool
Ya like my pic?

 

[alexhoovers94]

Who says I am the highest bidder?

 

[madabouthoovers]

You must be - you did say that no-one would be getting that TP2 over your dead body!


 


Check out our post counts Alex!

[alexhoovers94]

Hmm but at 300 pound not sure whether to back out...

 

[parwaz786]

If you relly want it, does the price matter? will the product make you happy?

 

[alexhoovers94]

In the long run I will be glad I did get it...if I do...but at the moment it is hard to justify...mind of matter.
