Most Thrift Store back and front room employees I encounter wouldn't know the difference between a Sebo and a Dirt Devil. And I find prices are a regional and economic neighborhood thing. They can vary from one side of town to the other side of the tracks. To them, it's just another plastic vacuum. Well done, Hans. |

SUPER FIND-GREAT PRICE!!Had to pay more for one like it from a Kirby trade in pile.Had to change the brushroll in mine-takes but a couple minutes.Fascinating vacuum-the electronic auto height adjust-have a transparent dealer demo model-shows how the mechanism works. |

Hans, I am coming down and rub your head for good luck! That is an awesome find! It truly doesn't surprise me, a new brush is all she needs...but it would not clean very well in that condition...most people would just throw it out...thinking it can't be repaired. Probably replaced it with some Wally World bagless thingy and now think it (the Sebo) wasn't doing it's job to start with...LOL |

Wow, what a price for such a fabulous machine. Such luck! My goodwill was trying to sell a beat up Legend 2 for 300 dollars! |

Like you, I've had a bit of good luck with the thrift stores as well ... in '05, for example, I found a Windsor Sensor SR12 -- which was made by Sebo and looks just like yours -- for $6.00, marked down from $12 'cuz the store was going out of business and was having its final sale that day. And then, there was this fine specimen that I got from the local Salvation Army for $7.99 ... Once again, congratulations! Bill W. CLICK HERE TO GO TO tazcatsdad's LINK |
