That's a beautiful Bison, James. I have the Centurion and I love it. You have to decide for yourself (if it is the only Bison you own) if you are willing to part with it in favor of the new model Kirby. Like everything else, in time they will be a dime a dozen. In all honesty, you can list it on eBay and I am sure it will fetch a pretty penny, but whether you list it here or on eBay you have to be willing to ship it to the states.

To ebay or not to ebay, that is the question *duck & run*

Sorry, couldn't resist that.

Maybe what you should consider is whether or not you need to achieve a profit on your Bison. If you offer it as an outright sale, you may have to compromise on your selling price. Your Bison is an absolute gem! I hope you'll be shrewd about disposing of it.

I agree that if financial gain is the objective (and there's no reason why it should not be), then eBay would for sure be the way to go.

I wasn't all that sorry to see mine go. Sure, it's an oddity but it's noisy as hell, hard to use, heavy, stupidly designed, and is really ugly and kludgy looking - especially in comparison with the flawless lines of the Kirby.

The one thing I thought was kinda cool was the rheostat-controlled motor speed.
