I was coming home from work Tues pm, and was driving through a "Ritzy" section, called the Hollywood section of Scranton. I spied a "handle" would know it anyywhere. It was the green Decade 80, has a hole in the back of the bag, AND, the cord was cut off. WHY do they do that?
Aside from that, it's in great shape. Now, I have 2 greens, 2 dark gray Decade 800(s). | ||

I have encountered that on many occasions (cut cords). Evidently persons cut the cords to obtain the copper wire for scrap purposes. Sadly, many a time I have seen good vacuums and the like victims of this. | ||

Good save! I love the Decade 80. I have actually seen KIRBY vacuums with cords cut off. CUT off. Not completely missing. Ugh some people. | ||

How much scrap copper are you going to get from a cord-almost not worth it. | ||
