Unknown Russian or Eastern Europe Vacuum NIB?

[funvacfan]

I found this listing on Kijiji, and am stumped. I've never seen anything like this one before.

The seller says it's antique, but new in the box. I'm only guessing at the language on the box. Maybe someone here will have more knowledge about it.

The link is to the sellers listing.


Any ideas??

It seems to have some resemblance to some of the Russian vacs I posted a while back - see attached link, about a third of the way down. Are you going to go for it?

Looks like a Fairfax vacuum.

I have e-mailed

the seller, but haven't heard back yet. As long as the price is right, I'll go for it.

The listing reads that one should make a "resonable offer". I hate when they don't give you a ball park. But no matter, we will see!

I thought it looked like a fair fax too!
