ebay vacuum cleaners

since the ebay traders looks to be actual posts, I thought I would ask this here. On a scrap run this morning me and my business partner found a newish vacuum, we scrapped the non working motor, parted out the rest and gave it a good cleaning, after researching the particular model ect, we added it up and if we sold it all, it looked as if on average people were getting around ninety dollars for all the parts we had in good shape! Anyone actually making money like this on these things??? I don't care how long its up for sale either.

i believe this is one of jghilio's favorites I know there are posts about it and i thing he was one of the people talking about it. parts for high end coffee makers are supposed to sell well too

my neighbor sold an ancient Rainbow vaccum/deep cleaner on ebay for me which I picked up curb shopping. Pulled in $75 for me. I didnt even have to tear it apart!

Yes, and don't overlook those older vacuums and nasty steam cleaners. Some of the older stuff is collectible, and some of those parts for the steam cleaners aren't cheap either.

I have also been getting a small number of all in one fax/scan/print machines lately......wonder if those parts are worth selling, I have just been selling the little fans on ebay and scrapping the rest! Resale is fairly new territory for me, but I think I really like vacuums now
