[vacman101]

I got a long list

If you can ship, i'm interested in the following machines:

-the Douglas upright
-the Sunbeam Challenger
-the Bissell Sweepmaster and space-vac
-the JCPenney stick vac
-the Black &Decker canister vac
-the Dazey Vacuum
-the Shop-Vac hippo
-and lastly, one of the GE/Premier uprights with the cord reel.

I'm definitely interested to see the Viking and Bissell stuff!

Robert,

This is already taking a lot of time from my book store and local vac customers.Pictures so far have not even shown 10% of what is here!!When I can locate items,agree on a reasonable price and shipper(UPS & USPS are close)things can move your way.You and others may want to consider the easy drive.This is a great area to visit for vacation if any have time in the spring.
Douglas UR-Only have 1,should have bags.
Challenger-Probably more that haven't been pictured.Should have most attachments and bags.
Bissell Sweepmaster-Again some both good and for parts have not been shown.Have bags.
JCPenney stick vac-Has problems and should have nozzle.Also other JCP items.
B & D canister-Is spoken for.May have extra power nozzle and misc.We once had a furniture store that sold these in 90s.
Dazey-Only 1.Should be good.(Most here not tested recently.)
Hippo-Also another upstairs,one labeled as Dayton complete in box & bags.
GE/Premier UR w/cordwinder-Probably another downstairs.
Viking/Bissel-Few if any complete Viking vacs but many hoses,atts,etc.Much Bissell(also non electric sweepers)boxes,nozzles,etc.

Do you have a rubber access port plug for a Hoover Z700 (Z400 and Z700 used the same one) in there somewhere and could you ship it? It's so light it would probably only cost $2-$3.

When I bought mine off eBay the seller was trying to be helpful and washed it before selling it and he lost the plug in his yard I guess, I couldn't ask for a refund because when it arrived, UPS busted the handle and I had to get a partial refund.

Hoover Z

Only have 1 white Z and probably no parts.
(Nice house with great windows,colors,landscaping. 70s?)

 

[huskyvacs]

Probably late 70's or 80's - that's the seller's photos he had in the eBay auction.

My list

I'm new to collecting vacuums so the list seems very common but I hope you have some of these still in boxes near mint.

The list:
Hoover Constellation
Electrolux LX
General Electric V13C3
Hoover 575
Hoover 28

"I hope you have some of these still in boxes near mint.

He probably has them out of boxes, but keep dreaming on that...

 

[rugsucker]

'--still in boxes--"

Sorry,no.Good condition with a box for that model,in some cases-yes.Will know more as I continue sorting.

Hi Jim. Hope you are well. I still wish I could have worked in the shop with you instead of being here. Maybe if I had been there you would not be closing the shop.

Gary.

 

[rugsucker]

Gary,

Good to hear from you.I am well but older,tireder,weaker and closer to death with every passing day which is one reason these need to GO.It would be different if you had been here.My book store,new vac store and now emptying the old vac store are each full time jobs with only part time help that really doesn't care or understand the vacs.Call sometime!

We are all closer to dying than yesterday. It made me remember Shashank redemption quote"Get busy living, or get busy dying."
Les

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Personally, I think my demise would

please too many people... well, a few, at least.
So, I plan to either: linger, or live a very long time. So far, so good.
The best revenge, I'm told, is to live a great life. Live well!!

[crazykirbydude]

Do you have any old Electrolux, Kirby, Compact, or Royal vacuums? I'm also looking for a 1920's Hoover as well.

 

[rugsucker]

'Do you have---?"

Yes,Yes,Yes & Yes!

I am still interested in that early 500 series Kirby with the original bag if it’s still available.
