search around like we do...

try old vac shops, ebay, look around on fb marketplace, thrift stores ( yes I have seen NOS machines in there). there are really loads of places you can find NOS machines, the thing is knowing where to look.

There is a listing on eBay now for a New In Box old stock Hoover Self Propelled Upright (maybe from the 1980’s). The price is now well over $1,000, though.

I'll have a look at a vac-store when I get the chance!

Speaking of you looking for NIB vacuum cleaners, the ones you're probably looking for... and me, too... are...

Kirby Tradition 3CB (with top-mounted speed selector switch)
American Lincoln Super Sweep 180
COMVAC 1300

Outrageous price!

But, someone might bite.
I've found a few, here and there. They ARE out there, like other excellent, rare finds.
Some days, we get lucky.

Old hardware stores are great too.

There was one here in Pittston. The owner's widow died last year. I'd go in and ask about rare, Hoover bags and belts for various models. "Helen" would respond, "Uhuh, Honey, I have 'em. Go, help yourself"
Wonderful.

We have lots of new old old stock machines at my store. They’re the kings of new old stock.

I bought my Bissell 3554 Lift-Off from a Amazon user, I believe you can still get one from the same seller today.

Vacuum shops. That's your best bet! That's where I got my Ultra MVP.
