Let's hope these don't end up vivisected at the Scrap Metal Yard. |

What a lovely bunch. If I lived anywhere close by I'd gladly pay $499.99 for this hoard and I'm sure the seller would let anyone make several trips to haul it all away. From the 35 of 57 vacuums he has been able to photo-post several armload-fulls of some of these vacuums would be well worth the hassle to pick up and it could all be paid for by ebaying the rest. Well, I just had to say something and the auction goes off in 6 hours. With any luck one of our kind will snap these up and if not, here's the link in case it gets re-listed. If it does not get re-listed and one of our members in the Lenoir NC area (NW of Charlotte, East of Ashville and south of Virginia State) is interested and has the means to pick up and store I'm sure you'd have no trouble contacting the seller post-auction to arrange something. You'd also have no end of inquiries from members to help relieve you of the excess poundage by whatever means...I'd be a grateful participant in aiding this personal retrieval myself in November. :-) Just loathe the thought that these might end up in the crusher. Of course, it's a gamble but look at the pictures. For the price of gas plus $8.77 per vacuum + hose + wands (maybe), what a bargain for an instant collection! Dave, thinking what fun it would be to match up hoses to machines... CLICK HERE TO GO TO aeoliandave's LINK on eBay |

Looking forward to the double-wide Garage Door Glamor Shot, Rick. :-) Let's see, Snellville GA to Lenoir NC comes to 233.9 miles, 4 hours 11 minutes at legal speeds one way on Streets & Trips. Snellville to Ruskin FL 7 hours 46 minutes. Dave, sharing the joy and pain vicariously. WHEEEE-INDEEDEEEE_DO_DA_DAY... |
