Procare,

How do you think NAD would respond to the old Filter Queens (rep’s) claims of "No loss of suction" if advertised today?  Today FQ does not advertise this claim, because scientifically it’s old practices and claims (you describe) can be proven false. The vac world had and still has plenty of con men.

When you compare today's Dyson’s to other vacuums, you failed to mention that paper media or like vacuums quickly choke/d and their advertised performance dropped (suction drop).  Why did you not mention this?

The masses agree with Dyson, that is, they know all filter media clog and loose performance/huge performance loss.  The sack N choke dealers and sack N choke enthusiast can kick and scream about Dyson all they want, but the manufacturers they favor or represent can’t do a dam thing about it.  They can’t prove their sacks don’t choke and can't prove their products don’t loose performance.  Since Dyson launched in 2002 sack N choke manufacturers have not taken advantage of the powerful and mighty NAD to stop Dyson's claims.  Why?  Promoting sack N choke vacuums as new and exciting is regressing a bit, don't you think?

DIB:

Why are dyson dealers discounting DC28's already, just a month into the launch?  At one time, dyson was adamant about maintaining MSRP on the latest and greatest.  What's happening now?  Price wars so soon on the DC28?  HSN claiming falsely it has exclusive sales on the new dyson airmuscle technology and selling for $599.  Dyson bull shined HSN?  Dealers are discounting the airmuscle for $509-$529.  Is this dyson approved?  How will this sit with HSN buyers who pay $599 under false pretenses and claims only to find that other retailers are selling cheaper?  Can you answer these questions?  Careful.  No half truths and lies allowed here by order of your twin HS.

Why is Oreck reducing prices, throwing in extra freebies and selling in BB stores?  Sounds as if they are getting desperate.

Unlike you, who can't own up and answer the dyson's price wars on the DC28 so you divert to ORECK, I'll answer your question.  Simple.  Expand and conquer.  ORECK is looking to score sales in retailers' stores like COSTCO as these retailers cull dysons from their shelves and make room for better vacuum sellers.  Go with the business man and brand that has a 45 year rep in the industry.  Scrub the failing newbie that wishes he did.

You directed the question to DIB.  No diversion. Just a simple observation.

If I had an Oreck store I would be pithed.  Same as the indys are with Dyson for bypassing them.  Of course you think it is OK for Oreck.

You and your twin constantly run interference with others' posts as diversion when the pressure mounts.

Remember ORECK doesn't ahve to depend on third party retailers for sales like dyson does.  Whatever sales ORECK makes in COSTCO, Penny's, BEST BUY, etc is icing on the cake.  The bulk of its annual sales are directly thru ORECK/ORECK stores.  Too bad James didn't take a page from ORECK's business model.
