    Vacuum parts

    The head on my Samsung vacuum cleaner is broken, and I thought I would replace it with a universal type. However all the places I can think of do not carry anything like this (5 gold, appliance stores, etc). Samsung parts # do not answer their phones, nor do they return my calls.

    Online stores charge a lot for these cheap parts, and shipping to HK is very high.

    So does anyone have any ideas where I should look?

    Have you checked Taobao? Delivery to HK is usually 30-40....

    I don't see many parts listed there, and the ones that are there don't apply.. Also I would have no idea how to order from taobao.

    you either bite the bullet or find a broken vacuum cleaner on ebay and cannibalize it.
    The mfg wants to make big money with parts, it's like this with many consumer and non-consumer goods

    If they wanted my money maybe they should answer the phone when I call! Or call back when I leave my number!
