Thank you Dusty for using observation and not theory.  Here's the crux of the matter.  All the dyson dealers in the past here bragged of dyson's MAP and price supports for product MSRP.  You too.  MOLE and I said it wouldn't last.  All you need do is check the past vacuum history for big box retailers.  In the big box venue, these retailers would force dyson to drop prices and like it.  Or else.  You and all the dyson fans argued that it would never happen with dyson.  NEVER.  Maybe on the old discontinued models [MAYBE] but not the new dyson stuff.  WRONG.   Discounts on everything dyson, new and old.   Except the DC16 which will probably get scrubbed by dyson in the USA after they are all given away. 

Dyson fans flip flop now and put dyson in the same category as all the big box vacuums.  Hello!  Thank you!  Flip flop, flip flop when will it stop?  You're late to the right side of the debate.  MOLE and I told you this years ago.  Didn't listen.  Rookies!

I have never thought of Dyson as anything more than a box store vacuum which is why we held off so long before bringing them in.  When a vac is sold nationally in a box store environment you have to expect that price will not hold.  I will point out however that for the 3 years Dyson has been in Canada pricing has stayed at MSRP for the most part.  I have never bragged about Dysons MSRP or said price will never drop, I haven't been here long enough to get into those discussions. I will say the high price has been good for our industry because the customer now relates to a better vacuum costing $500-$700. It's much easier to sell Riccar, Miele etc when people have been inundated with advertising showing high price points than when they come in thinking a great quality vacuum is a $150 Dirt Devil.

Hello Dusty:

I could not have written your post better myself.  I agree with everything you said about dyson being just another big box seller subject to all the pricing shananigans of the big box store models.

I apologize to you for grouping you in with all the other dyson dealers who spouted the drivel that dyson was different.  You obviously do not hold that position.  My compliments.

Dyson has done more to revitalize the vacuum industry in the USA by accident than all the other vacuum makers have done on purpose in the last 50 years.  I've said this many times.  But it's worth repeating for you who may not have read it before and others who have.

Hi Dusty,

I was unaware the DC23’s cyclones were much like the DC17’s.  I assumed the DC23 and the DC22 used the same cyclone set up (1 intermediate cyclone).        DIB

Hi DIB

THats interesting to know, I though the DC22 and DC23 had the same cyclone and core technology, but looking at your posting they don't.  What are the advantages between the 2?  I would think they both have about the same number of small cyclones on the top of the bin.  Will 2 intermediate cyclones filter any better than one big one!?

Geez, who whizzed in your corn flakes this morning? One would think that you are actually missing all the Dyson banter by the way you hit the boards today.  Could it be you're a closet Dyson fan and this is an attempt to keep the Dyson chatter alive and well?  Be careful mole...James will be putting you on his Christmas card list if you keep this up :-)
