Hi all! A 1:6 scale Bachmann Kiddypliance canister vacuum like the one my Barbie is using is for sale on eBay now, but ending within 24hrs. It's currently on sale for a BIN $15.99 + $6 ship-- a steal!! The item # is 360453863727 (and I hope that doesn't break any rules; I have no affiliation with whoever is selling this, and unfortunately my computer skills mirror my photography ones ;), so I don't know how to "link" things. It looks like the one for sale has a chunk of plastic missing from the piece that connects the aluminium tubing, but that could be easily fabricated. It doesn't include the battery pack that this particular piece came with (both visible and partially hidden behind the dioramas wall screen), but the display value is worth alot more than $20 and change I think!! The seller has it listed in the wrong category; if it was listed in Vintage Barbie it would have sold long ago. I thought I'd toss a tasty bone to my fellow vacuum-a-holics!! As my photo proves, even injection molded plastic can get the rug bug!!! Cheers!

Thank You Kindly!

I used a tripod for the first time and still it's fuzzy...

I had a great mental image when I saw your handle and photo:

Picture a red carpet event, with a phalanx of us with our favorite make-n-model, vacuuming our way to the front where we're interviewed posing with our "dates", after which a trusted assistant whisks our purring beauties away in a Busby Berkley-esque formation! The crowd goes wild!! True Glamour can only be achieved with a properly clean carpet!!!
 
Derek, I wouldn't have done that if I was you!! That Kirby deserves AT LEAST a $500.00 reserve price, considering the condition you restored the Kirby 1C to, & it's rarity.

Best of luck with the sale....Rob
 
Rob-

I know but I need the money and not one person even made an offer when I said "best offer"...

We shall see...
 
ok i have some questions about the 514. is there any water damage to the box??? and how is the botom of the box? is it completely destroyed or what??? and is the cord black or gray? and the hose, what condition is it in? any rips in the hose or any frays??
