So last Friday a Kirby dealer stopped by wanting to do a demo shampooing our carpets, which is fine for me cause with 3 kids and a dog, it needed it really bad. Paul was getting ready to leave for work so Friday didn't really work for us and we told him up front we didn't want to buy one right now since we are trying to buy a house. However, the man was persistent in showing us and said he could come back Monday(today).
So he actually showed back up today around noon and its now 2:15 and he's still cleaning. We repeatedly told him we weren't interested today but he cleaned anyway. He dropped the price a few times, and still a no go from us, but at least we have clean carpet now. I would love to have one, they are awesome especially with kids and pets! Just not currently in the budget!! $1200 eeks!!
And at what point if you were a door to door salesman would you give up if you knew the person was not going to purchase. I don't think I could try to sell something with that kind of price tag, take 2 1/2hrs to demo it for someone not to purchase!
He did however motivate me to do a deep clean of the house before we leave on vacation in a week!!
Wow he was very persistent. My mom had a Kirby for years but the cheaper vacuums work just as well. Invest in a separate steam cleaner and you are good to go.
