Too cool! And the boxes appear to be un-opened. But I can't help but wonder if they were purchased, tucked back into storage for a decade or two, and then sprung on the list. Would they hold the same sort of cachet as a pair of mid-60's models? Could anyone restrain themselves from powering them up for another 20 years : ) |

The strange thing is that electric dryers are pretty rare in So. California, gas is the preferred and economical choice there. |

This is very tempting, but I suspect that shipping costs would be prohibitive. Really a dream come true for those of us that miss our Filter flo machines. |

I remember when I was a kiddo and I would love to go to the electronics and appliance dealers and see these. They the Kenmore belt-drive we had at home SOOOO boring in comparison. You'd open one of these up and it was just full of mini-basket, filter, dispenser, styrofoam, plastic, and booklets! And loved the smell of new washer. |

People are cutting back and or are being forced to cut back. Charging one grand or so without worry on paying the bill isn't easy for many these days. Am seeing lots of things that normally went for huge sums on eBay, move at well below four figures these days. As for myself, unless it is something one really NEEDS, am very shy about pulling that snipe trigger. |

What the final bid was, because fleaBays system goes by 5 or ten dollar increments. Someone who really wanted not only to snipe, but cover his flanks could have put in a last minute bid for 5,000USD. True you would have only been out bid by 10USD, but a snipe bid for 20USD or even 50USD wouldn't have made a difference. Well it would have driven up the final price for the winning bidder, but that is all. |

Since eBay has drastically changed the process for withdrawing and or canceling a bid, it seems hardly anyone bids before the last few days or hours anymore. Considering the amount of bidders who did bid early was rather small these past years anyway, this is really saying something. This is one reason so many are becoming turned off to eBay. Not everyone has time to sit around a computer to wait for final auction minutes. Snipe software is fine and well, but not everyone knows about them, and or is that computer savvy, or as with petit Moi, prefer to aquire my targets and launch torpedos on "manual". *LOL* L. |

I don't see the need for a "snipe" program. I bid on something what I think it's worth, or I'm willing to pay. If I get it, that's great. If not, someone wanted it more than me, or was willing to pay more. Maybe I lose by $10.00, or a $1000.00 dollars, who knows. Something as rare as this new set should be bid accordingly, I agree. |

Yes at the rate I have been acquiring washers & dryers lately you would think they would suddenly appear here, but actually no they won't. LOL As awesome as it would be to have this NIB set, I'm not in a position to drop that kind of $$ for a W&D right now.... AND there are others here in the LA area who are more into GE's and would covet them much more then I. Plus I already have a filter flo... one is enough. Plus I have too many as it is now!!! LOL |
