Wanted: Kirby Omega Pinstripe Bag

[kmarcus]

Hello, I am hoping to find for a reasonable cost the original pinstripe bag for my Kirby Classic Omega, serial number N91... My current bag is an aftermarket one without the logo and I'd love to get my machine all original again.

this guy MAY have what you are looking for. https://www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREADM.cgi?39219.

Yes

He does unless blaze bought it. This bag is very very very rare. I'd say 2 or 3 collectors have this bag. Ben knows about the bag the most. They belch dust through the bag.
Rob may have and you may have to buy whole machine. The other classic Omega bag kirbyfans has for sale for $165. The $165 bag I have owned 3. Pinstriped 0.
If you buy the whole machine will be alot cheaper than trying to find one. I have up and changed my focus.

The bag for Kieran's machine would look like what is on my 1974 Classic Omega.

Ben

I'm glad you got one. You should tell him how super rare it is to find one.
Thanks Ben happy new year.

I do not have any pinstriped bags for sale like the OP seeks. The only pinstriped one I have is on my restored Omega, which is not for sale.

Now I do have a 'waffle' style bag on a complete Omega I do have for sale.

Hmm

I seen this. It looks like it may be pinstriped bag.

super rare? hmmm no so sure of that, not common for sure, I have one, there's another one at the local vac store, and just saw another one last week at a resell store.

Did you really see them or are you and people you know vacuum shop workers or collectors.
Nor everyone can get a model c at a local vac shop, another model c in mint condition etc.
Where I'm from your not rare is rare to other people.
I'm joking but a little serious but mostly jealous.
I see f&g bags that probably were original bags but ya.

I honestly saw all of them myself. I must admit though, before 2019, I had never seen any.. In person ... Then several!

 

[texaskirbyguy]
