Hi Matt, Quite rare I would say, although there is one over here!!! cue said person!!!...did you get to use the vac or as a kid where you frightened of it?? Marty, nice looking vac and the bag is the same material as our 1334 Junior, which is a complete nightmare as you only need to look at it and it snaggs!!! It seems odd that those where the only only coloured tools that came with it...was the burgundy model out before the blue Lark or at the same time?? Cheers, Mike |

That'd be me then! It has been lucky enough to have received two visitors last week, ambassadors representing the Kerr and Ellis collections :) |

Is there a problem with the bag pulling loose at the bottom on these Larks? It looks in the photo like it's awfully tight, appears to be quite stretched out. That would seem problematic to me. |

I have phoned and left a message, also emailed and no return call or mail. Maybe I should tell whomever I talk to what I need. I stated in the email and on the phone that I was from the vac club. I'll try again. Thanks Norm |

"vacphone" got it. Is that a VL member? Looked like a nice unit, good shape. It was about $100 more than I bid. No idea it was so rare. Oh well, maybe next time.... |

The winning bid on the Lark 12, in October of 2005 was a mind-blowing $371.00! |
