Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

1)  Nov 21, 2007 James Dyson t.v. commercial parodied on Saturday Night Live.

2)  March 17, 2009:  While many independent vacuum dealers bad-mouth, lie of and/or dismiss James Dyson and his teams contributions, many others champion the man.  Watch James Dyson in his element - in his Malmesbury Headquarters.  NBC’s “Today Show”  http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-us&vid=71fa9222-10d2-413c-bf31-0007895697ac

2)  Older video news:  I could not resist...  A Hottie car-news chick mentions the rumor of Dyson working with car makers, and Oreck gets a mention too (funny).

Thanks Ace for heads up on this ad.        DIB

Yes, that's the one... What do you mean by 2 of 2?

Carmine, once again your Depends are full.  Tom Gasko does not post on Abbysguide, and after speaking to him recently he said he couldn't care less.  It was me (not Tom) who was incredulous that you were able to purchase an XL for $150 plus shipping, $100 more than they're worth.

Carmine,  Please verify were I doubted that you bought and Oreck for $150.   The local papers were full of adds last week for $150 Orecks.  I doubt that many were sold.  You know the old bait and switch upgrade game.  My bet is that most left the store with one of those $50 XL21's that sell for almost $800

Hello HARDSELL:

Not only are you a little late [repetitive] to the discussion but your memory is failing too.  

My point in posting: An Oreck XL Classic upright can be purchased without the giveaways for $150-$199 with/wo free shipping and a 1-3 year warranty.  You and Tom Gasko posted that Oreck didn't do such a deal/I had to have an "in" [buddy deal were Tom's words] with Oreck/sales people to get a deal like I did. 

Heck of a deal.  $199, free shipping, 3 year warranty.

As usual you are misquoting what  I really said in an attempt to show your brilliance.   I simply and honestly stated that the Oreck store where I went refused to sell the vacuum sans the free gifts.

I already stated that the local papers were full of $150 Oreck ads last week.  If the vac is available and you pay $199 the shipping is not free.  Looka like you are as gullible as the rest for Ol Dave's BS freebies.

Hello HARDSELL:

Good to know that your memory is s-l-o-w-l-y coming back again.  My brilliance however must have impaired your reading skills.  So I quoted the Oreck ad here:

Offer valid through 5/28/08. Free Shipping applies to Standard Shipping only within the continental US. (Does not apply to Express Shipping.) There is a $25.00 additional charge for delivery to Alaska and Hawaii, a $50.00 additional charge for delivery to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, and a $75.00 additional charge for delivery to Guam.

Continental doesn't mean European breakfast here.  It means contiguous.
