Well, my moms old Eureka was on eBay with a Buy It Now of 25 so I could not resist. It is near mint. I wasn't quite sure if it was it, but then she looked at it and instantly knew that it was the one that she got as a wedding present from a relative/friend, she doesn't remember who, in 1990. I am so excited to use it. I only got to use the original one once, because it used to be in our storage unit at the U-Lock and I would always whine and say that I wanted to take it home and use it, but she said it was somebody elses so I couldn't take it. I would be so upset everytime we went to get something out. Well, when we moved into our old house, new then, it was sitting in the foyer, because it was at hte front of the storage so first to go in. SO i begged and beggecd to use it and she finally gave in. So that was the last time. She had her Dirt Devil deluxe so she had no use for the Eureka, and it sat in their closet and she refused to buy bags for it. Later my brother took a hammer to it, then a few months later my dad and I tore it apart, but now it is finally back in my life:)
