Hunch on New In Box Vintage Kirby Omega!

So, this ebay auction I found about a brand new in box never used Kirby Classic Omega today online, I told my boyfriend about it and cried up a storm that I wanted it so bad. I emailed the seller and they wanted a reserve of at least $300. So I was sad because I can't afford to spend that right now on this paticular item, but it's so rare. So tonight, I go on and check the posting and how odd the bidding for the item has ended. I told my boyfriend about it and he said "well sounds like someone offered the seller enough money to end the auction early." I hope I'm right, but I have a GUT FEELING the Kirby is going to be wrapped up under my Christmas tree this year!

Please, nobody email seller and ask them if the vaccuum was being shipped to Omaha, NE. I want it to be a surprise! Keeps fingers crossed.

This is the exact model Kirby my mom had when I was just a young child at age 4 or 5 when I first became facinated with vacuums. How awesome that would be to have the same model, brand new, never used! Who the heck would keep a higher end vacuum cleaner new unopened in box for so many years? Boggles my mind. See the attached link to view the posting!

Checkrate/Likes That would just be an awesome Christmas, guy!!! I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you!! Please let us know how it goes! The only thing I can imagine is that a distributor had is sitting around, when he already had a current model for himself? I have seen two adv. on Craigs list here where someone had bought a second new Sentrina for a friend and then they could not pay them for it. Sounds a little hokey to me. Have to wonder if they were maybe stolen? Now your's is old enough that it could have very easily be stored and then realized that it was there? In a warehouse, or storeage place somewhere out there !!! Norm

Checkrate/Likes *Bummer* Yea, looks like the seller relisted it. Oh well, was a nice thought to dream about it for at least a night.
