Yes, Hans. Keep your hopes and spirits high. What Pete says is so true. I've gotten many a vac for cheap when the listings get flooded after a big score. Surely they made more than a few of these and you shall have one! That is a fascinating accessory and I was watching it too - but not bidding.

Hang in there,,you'll find one someday! Something you might check, if you have the time(or dont already do it),,check estate sales, household auctions, household sales, ect, especially those of older people that are downsizing to go to a rest home, retirement facility, or have passed away,,whatever. People from the older generation saved and took care everything (usually) that was considered expensive,,,so those types of sales can be a treasure trove. I found one of my dream machine's that way. It was a practically new in box Electrolux 1205 with PN,full attachments, and Rug Washer, tray, ect. Even had the white wall and dusting brushes. Rug Washer was still sealed in the box,,she had never opened it. Found out the lady of the house prefered an upright Hoover Convertible,,and used the Lux only for above the floor cleaning once in a great while. It still had the original bag in it from day one, She never even used it enough to fill up the first bag. PN had never even been plugged in. The lady kept the box it came in even,,she would store the vac in the back of an upstairs hall closet and put it back in the box each time. So,,hey,,you never know,,i sure wasnt expecting to find much at that sale,,and then, JACKPOT! If i remember right,,i think i gave 50 bucks for the whole thing. |
