I found this Concept at a thrift shop a few days ago and picked it up. It was very dirty and completely clogged up with cat hair. Now that I've cleaned it up it runs like new though. It seems to be in relatively good condition too except for the battle scars on the hood. I don't have much experience with Concepts but I have been pretty impressed with this one, I also think it does a better job than my newer teal and black one.

I'm not sure if the handle is a replacement or not, I've asked several people and they said that it varied model to model and it could have come with a black one or a green one. I will say that this black one has obviously been on there for while because it shows signs of wear. But I also know replacing the handle was a common problem on the Concept line. Here's a pic of the HEAVILY scarred hood.
