"--still available?"

Yes.As days get longer I hope to have more time to check condition,agree on reasonable prices and ship or schedule time for collector visits such as the one for next weekend.

When's the cutoff date for pickup? I'm in Lexington, KY, so not too far of a drive. Maybe I can come down sometime during April or May.

Jimmy,

Mat I call you this weekend to discuss some Hoover items?

 

[rugsucker]

Adin,

April or May should be good.In addition to VACS this is a nice area to visit and every Sat evening(Apr-Oct)is a downtown car cruise in with 3-4 block of antique,classic,hot rod & muscle cars as well as motorcycles and trucks.Some barn find,some as good as Barrett Jackson.
John,
You and any interested may call 423-268-4841 for Hoover and MUCH MORE.Hoover includes kitchen items,irons and yellow small dryer(missing motor and drum but would make a great laundry room cabinet!).Depending on my day phone is off between 5-9 PM,back on at 6 AM.

"Who will be next?"

It's hoover300 from KY to look at oldest of the oldies and Kirby parts.

 

[tonie]

Do you have any hoover convertible attachments?

 

[crazykirbydude]

I really want to come down there! I might come down there and pick up a few machines for my birthday, which is in May. Would that be ok?

 

[crazykirbydude]

rugsucker...

I sent you an email.

 

[hoover300]

Highly recommended...

Found some real beauties, thread coming soon. Also, lots of Coffee cans, although most of what I saw looked like Hoover rebuilds.

 

[rugsucker]

tonie,

Convertible attachments--YES!!!
crazykirydude,
come down.OK?--YES!!!
sent an email--that I do not use and did not get.If I were that much a part of the modern world I would tell you to get a Roomba & Dyson!!

[crazykirbydude]

Ah, ok. I'll use a different phone, as mine is not working correctly. Would it be possible to come down in May?

 

[crazykirbydude]

What month do you want everything gone by? I might be able to come down during April or May and pick up 10-20 vacuums. I also have a budget of $100. I will attach a list of wanted vacuums. An asterisk means that it is one that I really want. I would appreciate it if you could get back with me on how many of these I could get for $100 or so.

I forgot to mention that I'm not picky when it comes to condition or completeness. As long as the motor runs and it is functional or can be made functional with minor repairs, I'm happy. I don't mind aftermarket hoses, bags, cords, etc.

I have a few newer vacs that I'm looking for and forgot to mention.
Very BOL Hoover Elite or Runabout
Hoover Quik-Broom
Eureka SmartVac

 

[rugsucker]

Adin,

Elite-Very few complete.Might be a standard white.Some for parts & many handles & bags(both cloth & hard case).
Quick Broom-Using E,F,G bags-Yes.90s-I hope not.Maybe fans for 90s version.
Smart Vac-Probably not,but bags & filters for many models.
What I do have are things you may have never seen or heard of.If you make the easy drive you might learn more in 1 day than 1 year of internet,dept stores,average vac stores,etc.(Not bragging,just facts.)With longer days it will GO faster & faster until GONE!

If it's not too much trouble, would you mind taking pics of some of the machines I've mentioned? There's a collector in Indiana selling some vacs too and I'm trying to decide if I want to go to Tennessee or Indiana. You have some really cool stuff, but the other guy has some cool stuff too. I would like to make sure that you'll have what I'm looking for? I really want a Kirby DS80, Kirby G3, coffee can Hoover, F&G Eureka, Royal metal upright, Electrolux AE, AF, R, S, G, or L, and a style U Electrolux upright. These are vacs that I've been looking for and I'd like to find at least 3 of them. I would like to have a Compact with PN, BOL Hoover Elite, Eureka Roto-Matic, and another Electrolux Model XXX, but I won't be heartbroken if you don't have those. I'm not picky on completeness or condition.

 

[crazykirbydude]

My dad has a huge Honda Pilot, so I have the capacity to take 15 or so machines. Would it be possible for you to hold on to some until I can get them? If you don't, I completely understand.
