I got a laugh out of this one. Today, I was patrolling the Goodwill Outlet store and was looking in the toy bins. There was a Dirt Devil that was put in with the toys instead of the household goods. Apparently, the sorters really thought it was a toy.
I can totally understand that! They do stuff like that, but price a rusty Kirby Legend at 300 dollars (at least here)... crazy! Dirt Devil did make some toys that looked very much like their version of the real thing. I used to call all Dirt Devils toys, but then I found a few I liked (Cruiser, original Broom Vac, that about covers it, maybe hand vac too, and the toy one of those really looked like the real thing!)
