I've seen a few of these around at thrift stores for like $25. Would this be worth the amount they want?

Yes, the hose (if it really is new), and the attachments are worth that much. Looks like its been well used, but as long as the motor isnt screeching, and you put new filter bag, liner, and before motor filter in,,(after filters would be good too) wipe out the inside of the bag compartment, and maybe wipe down the whole outside of the machine,,definatly worth 25 dollars. Wouldnt hurt to Check the cord too. I think that particular set of attachments is sort of rare also.

I'd pay $75 just for the hassock. Love them, and they are more rare than hen's teeth around here. | ||

Welcome... As mentioned, that tool set it kind of hard to come by. I also like hassocks so it's always tempting when a vacuum with one turns up. I think if you want it, go for it. It wouldn't hurt to try and knock of a little extra off the price either. ;) | ||

buy it...... The tools alone are worth the price and you could get a replacement motor or rebuild the one that is currently in the machine,,, come make a choice. | ||
