Ebay November

[matchboxpaul]

Insane!!!!

I logged on at 20.05 and was flabbergasted - £201.18p.

Now I love A3110's, but that is rather a high price to pay for one.
My aunt and uncle would, if i were to tell them, be gobsmacked at that price. It does look an immaculate machine though and with all the bits and bobs with it too.

I dont think the winner posts here, as I am sure that the purchaser also bought that Hoover A3058 800 Electronic, that was in London a while back, and we havent heard from that machine since. i fear that this A3110, will slip under the radar.

nevertheless, congratulations to the purchaser - you have got yourself a grand machine there, which oozes style. may it give you years of satisfaction and pleasure.
be great of you to post a piccy or two!

good one.
cheers

Gobsmacked!

Thats gotta be a record for a 80s machine surely!

Guess someone REALLY wanted it!

[seamusuk]

It almost makes me think....

That the Hoover Topline from the same era I saw in a 2nd hand place a few weeks back may have been worth the £90 they wanted for it lol!!!!

Wayheyyyyy!!!!

Wot...!!! £201 quid and NO KEYPLATES.....Wow....whatever next!!!

Hey Mark.... theres said money in tipped junk!!! My last minute bid didnt even register...LOl,

 

[washdayisfun]

I don't think mine would have gone past the £10 mark the state it was in. Im happy to have the parts.

Meant to say before the drum from the 3110 is being used as a planter outside the front door..Looks really effective and good recycling of the drum I think.

A3110 on ebay

I would think that the seller being an appliance dealer will be more keen on looking out for old models now, so that would be more beneficial from a saving old models point.

Th only down side it is will push up prices.

As Mike said "Wot...!!! £201 quid and NO KEYPLATES" I concur with those thoughts

But I know if I had to choose with £200.00 to spend on a new piece of junk or the old Hoover which one i would choose, not that I am biased on these matters

How the years slip away on Ebay.....

Both those dryers being apparently 15 years old! More like 15x2 for the first one and 15+5 for the second one. Either way both in nice condition. One wonders where the concept of time actually goes to such appliance owners where the years just magically slip away. If only we could....!

Hoover Twin Tub

Hello Seamus

Well i have brought this one home, but i have no where to keep it, so i might have to move this one on.

It is nice having soft water, after years of living in london where it is hard, when i first opened up a washing machine down here it was a shock to see how clean it was inside

I think twin tubs are great machines, far more involved than front loaders, this one is in nice condition, when i get a chance i will try it out properly, i chucked a bucket of water in the tub at work and there were no leaks and it pumped out ok, the spinner lid is not working properly, it doesnt lock down........so there are a few things to look at.

It is a model T5054

Gary

 

[matchboxpaul]

Hi gary.

great find and swoop with removing that T5054 to safety - if you decide not to keep it, i do hope it goes to a good home.

cheers

Hoover Twin Tub

Hello Paul

Oh yes i was not letting that go in the skip, i even helped them of the back of the truck with it, to make sure they didnt dump it on the floor

As i say i cannot keep it as i just do not have the room, it is still in the back of my car at present

Today 5 yes 5 Hoovers came in 3 juniors and 2 seniors, all ratty, but i saved a few bits from the 632,s (grey ones) and two juniors, one is the standard blue/white job but the other is a sort of tangerine and orange colour, i havent come across this colour before.

Also another hotpoint came in and i managed to salvage the two strips off the lid both in good condition except one side at the rear has a hole in it where the locating lug was, the side ones were broken and not worth saving

so this weekend at work has been a "Hoover" weekend.

Hoover Tumble Dryer

Oh Shit!...........now i have got a major problem!.........i bunged a bid on it (max £41.00) thinking i would not win, but i did..........
Not only have not got room for the twin tub, but i have got even less room for the dryer...........

erghhhhhh ummmm errrr gawd

Cramped in Cornwall

 

[mattywashboy]

anyone near the midlands want a 7.5kg Fisher and Paykel top loader ?
Sure would be a one to have for those who have the space.
1000rpm spin, fully flexible wash, we have one at my workplace for the tea towels, does a great job.

Pardon our interruption...

 

[zodawash]

Have you seen this!

Wow! A very rare dryer. Now November seems to be a very good month for vintage machines turning up.
