I was on Vacuumland a few days ago and drifted over to AutomaticWasher.org to see if anything was of interest. I saw a link to an online auction showing vacuums...the pick up was only 2 minutes from my house.
I was the high bidder and picked them up yesterday.
I think we are keeping the maroon one for home use. The other 2 I have no use for. I only collect 1900-1940 vacuums. Anyone in need of them for a very reasonable price ? They are not mint but in excellent condition. I do have some attachments for them.

Nice find!
I have that same maroon one.
The other two are beauties! For some reason, this stuff almost never turns up anywhere near me. Probably just as well. I don't even have room for the last couple that I dragged home!

Should I take to Goodwill ?

It looks like no one wants these.....I'll take to Goodwill in a few weeks
if no one has any interest. They can go to someone for $ 10 if anyone interested.

I guess, if you don't want them, and they work, you could donate them. I would think some Goodwill shopper would be thrilled to find them!
But, if Goodwill tests them and they don't work, they'll probably toss them in the dumpster.
I'd love to take them off your hands. But, the shipping from Ohio would be crazy expensive.

They both work perfectly

Yes, both work AOK and have new bags and belts

Did you donate the orange one? If not, I have interest. Thanks.

And, since Brian spoke up first, I might be interested in the other one. But, it would depend on your willingness to ship it, and how much that would cost.
If you want to discuss it, you can e-mail me at the address in my profile.
Thank you.

vacs

I haven't made it to Goodwill yet...been too busy.
I'll look into shipping costs. I only want $5 for each of them.
They do run fine.

Shipping

I estimated the shipping to a neighboring State..it would be around $ 60
Most likely not worth the cost.

I'm sorry to hear that.
If that's to a neighboring state, I imagine it would be way worse to Massachusetts. I suspected as much.
The only time I ever shipped a vacuum, I used UPS. It shipped from MA to PA, and I was shocked at how affordable it was. I want to say, somewhere around $20.
But, that was also probably before the cost of just about everything went sky high.
