I think there's a 3-day return policy for all in-home sales but I'm not sure if this is a parody thread of some sort :)

Edit (I would have not done it, but she told me about my 1000 dollar guns, she wanted a frickin vacuum)

I'd really like to own a Kirby vacuum but their business model flat sucks.

The guy I let shampoo my family room started out at $4K and was down to $1200 on his way out the door.

In my expert opinion, she overpaid slightly.  
Take it back asap.  If they don't want to take it back, dispute the CC charge.  She DID pay with a CC, right?



Then have a discussion with the wife about anyone making large purchases without clearing it with the spousal unit first.

A Dyson vacuum is 1500.00 less and 10x the sweeper.   Your wife failed, make her get back to the kitchen.

Holy shit, that's like full markup.

I think dealer invoice is like $700 or so...and the salesperson (depending on seniority) has a cost of like $1000-1100...so you can usually talk them down a good bit.

That being said, it's been a long time since I sold those things, so invoice could have changed.

At least you own the best vacuum on the market.

Return it.



If she thought it was great you can buy a slightly used one with all the attachments on ebay for about $300.

yep,,,and left too much shampoo on the carpet as a parting consolation prize....  azzhole.  Luckily it was a lease ending rental we were cleaning...  hired another cleaner to do the job right.

Return the kirby and buy an identical one for $300 (or less).

Actually pretty good, I just wish the impeller was bigger and stronger to handle bugger chunks of trash, kinda like a mini shop vac.

If she uses it, it's the only vaccume that you'll need.  Ever.

My wife is hell on Vaccumes, and she'll but a new one about twice a
year.  She bitches about cheap parts, etc.  The Kirby is a fucking TANK.

I WISH I'd've bought a Kirby when we got married.
