I'd go back and offer $35-$40 for it. In my eyes, it is well worth it. When you are trying to get them to accept a lower price, mention every flaw you can think of that you can see on it. That usually helps a great deal for me. That is supposed to take a Royal B bag, which is the exact same as a Hoover A bag. On an off note, how much were they asking for the Kirby?

I see that the "vacuum on a stick" is in fact a Dirt Devil Roommate, which, if I was going to that sale, I would definitely buy assuming it works and has a somewhat decent price, because those older American-made Dirt Devil vacuums are becoming pretty rare and collectible and I find them pretty fascinating, as you can tell from my screen name.

They wanted $125 for the Kirby - and the "vacuum on a stick" wasn't the Dirt Devil - it was light blue and white, took G bags, and said "Hoover" on it. |
