Kirby Vacuum Cleaner Scam

EDIT: it is NOT the 1099 form I describe. Instead it is the W-2 Form. sorry for the mix-up.

EDIT 2: On an interesting note, I recieved a message from a "youtuber" by the name of Hallnoats4ever telling me things this person found wrong with my video. Although most I disagree with, I'd like to quote one thing that was said. "I was [trained] to be an Area Distributor and I found out Factory Distributors only pays $300.00 for the machine, now for him to make a profit it has to be sold above $700 or $800."

NOTE: If you are going to say this video is a scam, please give details on the points you believe to be false. Being a Cyber-bullying isn't cool, and I'm surprised on how many "Franchise Representatives" are so quick to insult in a very unprofessional manner.

This is NOT a comedy.

This is how, in my opinion, how Kirby Distribution Center's treats and how they recruit their employee's. Many of them do not even know what they are getting into. There are also many customer complaints of how Kirby employees treat them once they are in their home giving the demonstration.

please read about these instances here:

I believe that Kirby is a deceptive company, and everyone should be aware of what their franchises are doing to gain employees, and then how they treat them once they have them.


For legal reasons, I'm going to put this here:
These are my opinions I've gotten from experiencing employment from Kirby firsthand. No pictures have been edited, and most were taken directly from the Kirby website. I'm simply just re-posting them in this video.

I almost got scammed by these guys. Fuck Kirby distributors. P.S. You guys rushing to the defense of this idiocy...are just proving what a scam it is. If you are making so much and doing so excellent...why are you arguing on a video? You deliberately searched and found a scam accusation. Smells fishy to me, fellas.

@HorrorShowHappyHour i like your style

[RatPackish]

Went in for the interview. Saw it was Kirby. Took a shit in the office bathroom. Left. Winning.

My friend just got a job in Rhode island, they brainwash people. He's not going to get paid.

I went to the first day of training and didn't come back the second. SCAM.

@tripplebeam69 also to add to all this cause you only get so many words per post feel free to message me and ask me any questions I can give honest answers from a different perspective.

as stated above the kirbys are sold to the distribution center for a substantial discount less the half retail. that being said its up to the DISTRIBUTION COMPANY to pay you. I just started last week just got a paid vacation to go snowboarding with my girlfriend for 3 days and to top it off a $1600 pay check. If you think where you are starting work is a scam talk to the employees and look around make sure this company looks like it makes money. remember theres good and bad distribution centers

I wish I would have seen this sooner.

@KirbyIs4Real As I said...I showed them where to get a Kirby at a decent, honest price. I sold zero for the distributor. I quit because it was a joke and I got the information I needed. Ignorant to express an opinion founded on factual experiences? Hehehe the company is not a scam...your distributors are though. Plain and simple. Your job sucks was a pun...did it fly over your head? Do I need to break it down for you? Again...are you proud of that check? It's not very flashy. ^^ Hehe

[KirbyIs4Real]

@HorrorShowHappyHour I didn't say that I made 1500/week. That is a realistic income for a New Dealer. You sold 20 Kirbys in a week? I highly doubt that. If you would have you would of been making serious money and would have stuck with it. Not quit. I can be professional but I think its pure ignorance for people like you to come on here and claim Kirby is a scam when it clearly isn't. My job sucks? Is this the job that just cut me a $3200 check for a week and is sending me to Vegas? I guess so.

[HorrorShowHappyHour]

@KirbyIs4Real 1500 a week? You're proud of that? How cute! You are insulting me. That is so professional. Oh and for the record...I sold over twenty vacuums in a week. I showed my customers where to get one at an honest price. That being said...your job really sucks. See what I did there? ^^
