That is alot of money for anything. I would still have to repair it for it to funtion, so everyone could play with it. I have taken out my crystal ball,.......... and I see a relist for 1800 in your future. I have always loved these. Kind of first episode Bewitched kind of Maytags. Love the sound of the timers on these with the Halo of heat dryer.Love the lighed contols. Gonna one have one someday, hopefully in Pink.

More "Antiques Roadshow" viewers.... I used to dabble in antiques, but I got out when that show began convincing everybody in America that their used dental floss and old margarine tubs were worth a fortune, or would be if they held onto them long enough. It got to the point that you couldn't buy things at a price that would permit resale at a reasonable profit, at least not on a regular enough basis to sustain a real business (antique mall owners make much more on space rental than their vendors do on antiques, lemme tell ya!). eBay's doing the same thing to people- they see a perfectly restored 1964-1/2 Mustang convertible with all the options and matching serial numbers go for $45,000, and they figure their 1966 coupe with the six-cylinder engine, major rust, and a bunch of aftermarket crap should go for $44,000- after all, they're allowing a WHOLE GRAND for repairs. It isn't every day that a matched pink Maytag pair of this vintage turns up. It isn't every day they sit there unbid, either. |

bretsomers gets the prize! No pictures of the tub and agitator. Probably because the white porcelain tub is worn away to black and the agitator, if intact, is white from over-bleaching and hard water. The picture is one I pulled off ebay a while back - trying to sell a Gray Ghost wringer as an antique "in good condition for it's age"! I spit in the seller's direction! |

The sellers must have been closer to the crack pipe than the fountain of optimisim when posting to E-Bay. |

Greg, you are so funny! Love the gray ghost pic. You are a trip! Those machines are about 7 hours from me. Oh how I would love to save them, but ya know what. NOT....... Them old rear service Maytag's, LAWD....................... I do remember with reguards to the price, once an old Kenmore set sold for over 3500.00 last year. IIRC, one of our club members sold rollermatics for around 3? Am I correct? So in the scheme of things, lets give him a hand for trying. Truly, I do love these machines. Hey, just maybe Bethann could get them for her studio. Steve |
