The clutch wholesales for $19. It's a 10-15 minute or so job to complete. Can you belly up with Dyson documentation supporting your repair claimed numbers?
DIB
Yes, I called and asked dyson what it costs to fix a clutch not under warranty. The tech line told me $100-$135. Carmine D.

More dyson bull shine. If you haven't noticed HS, Wal*Mart stores sell all the top name and brand electronics and more than BEST BUY stores. People are savvy consumers. Give them the best for the price and they'll buy from any retailer regardless of the ambiance and location. You just like to make excuses for W*M and now add K-Mart scrubbing dyson from the shelves because they don't sell, period. More work to keep them dusted. Carmine D.
If you knew anything about electronics you would know that WM sells the low end of brand names and BB sells low to high end of those brands.
As for audio they offer low end HTIB systems and the very low end of only one brand of receiver. No stand alone amps or speakers worthy of mention. A lot of shoppers THINK Bose is high end. That should tell you how savy they are. OTH you likely think they are high end also.

HS:
You have a gripe with W*M because it dumped your fave brand. That simple. You praise BB because it came to James' rescue when he needed an oulet to dump all the DC07's that he took back from W*M. W*M out sells BB every year. BB is not even a close second. That's the reason James grovelled to W*M to get dyson back in. Carmine D.

HS: In case you missed the news, here it is again. Here's the rankings by retailer and PROFIT for 2008: - Wal*Mart $405.6 B
- Kroger $76B
- COSTCO $72.5B
- Home Depot $71.3B
- TARGET $64.9B
- Walgreen's $59B
- CVS CAremark $49B
- Lowes $48.2B
- SEARS HOLDING $46.8B
- BEST BUY $45B
It takes 9 years of business profits by BB to equal one year of W*M. No wonder James grovelled to W*M to get in. Carmine D. |

sure DIB....i see those cyclones and all the little chambers as places or bins for dust to build as it always has when taken totally apart.not just on dyson but on all bagless......no matter who makes it. nasty bin to empty ... buildup over time starts to stink..and does get by the filters , suction goes down...way down. ..yes its supposed to get blown away once you use it again...but it doesnt...and this is evident in the very dark nasty colored water when you soak them to loosen up the build up..for a flush out. although im a fan of the floating head [ riccar-panasonic ] a height ajustment with a little weight at the b-roll cover is better...and far cheaper than a clutch system. the ball is a waste...an added expense..wheels do fine. just alot of stuff to complicate the simple. so maybe im simple minded....but all that dyson does can be done by many at a far more affordable price. yes im partial to a bag vacuum. ..will never see a bagless as an asset..dont care who makes it ... no need for all the bells and whistles....its a vacuum. just means more to go wrong...more money to fix. on-off switch....thats it. you asked so i answered....my take on it...and some customers points of view that i agree with. im not speaking for the masses...but an honest opinion...point of view.
Hello 'turtle1'
DIB doesn't understand honesty and integrity. Those words are not part of his vocabulary. DIB and the fave company tell lies that they can't and won't back up with proof. Carmine D.

You made the comment about electronics, not me. I simply responded. What the hell does that have to do with Dyson at WM or BB?
Anyone with intelligence knows that WM and BB should not be compared in total revenues. Totallly different markets. BB sells better quality electronics than WM. Plain and simple. You should be more diverse with your knowledge.
