I scored a nice vintage Avocado green Hoover set. TT and dryer!
I had a set brand new many years ago. Been looking for a while. Hopefully the Shiply carrier comes thru. (Thank you for the recommend on them.)
I have read all the posts etc regarding Hoovers and do not see anything recent.
I am hoping Laundress can help me.
I remember having some trouble with the dryer drum pads. Any recommendations for replacements? and the glue?
Ok and of course belts. For the TT and the dryer.
Again, I have looked at all the posts and come up with a blank for anything recent! Thanks to all!

delayed...........

"Shiply" driver never showed up to pick these up. Seller is on vacation until 11/17 UGH! Have to place ad again. Waiting for new quotes. I knew it was to good to be true. Seller is anxious, as am I!

Keeping fingers crossed for you that everything works out.
But I guess the wait is going to have to be until after November 17th...

No reasonable shipping offers yet

So discouraged. Only replies have been from big guys with big prices. I keep renewing my ad on Shiply.

still no luck

I may have to let these go. I cannot find a reasonable shipper. Good thing the seller is not in a hurry.
I have an ad on shiply.

Paul,

I feel your pain. There have been four separate occasions in the past when I've had to rely on the cousin of a friend of a customer sort of relationship to get a part. Shipping, especially right now, is fraught with awfulness.

However - there are always young people moving from point a to point b. Have you considered any of the community college/university bulletin board services? Every school has several. It may take a few tries, but there's always an internal network for services needed, services offered. You might find some folks willing to do it for money that way.

Best of luck!

delivery update

Found a new shipper with good reviews at a decent price. Hopefully this works out. I am so upset! Good thing the seller is patient and not in a hurry! After all this I hope I can get the set working. Thanks everyone! I will keep you updated!
