I noticed fluffy's tag line about the Swingline only making the red Swingline stapler after the movie Office Space and wanted to show proof of my Vintage Model 99 Red Swingline. I use it every day and love it.
I checked on ebay, and in the last 30 days there was one vintage red swingline, but it was actually red and gray. Here are the photos:

I also saw someone who made an exact replica of the one used in Office Space. that one went for over $50. Amazing.

What is Office Space? I feel like I am out of the loop.

Heck No! I love my swingline stapler. It is better than a Bostich stapler, and I'm my own boss so no one can take it from me!!!

Office Space is the first movie directed by Mike Judge. He is most known for King of the Hill and Beavis and Butthead. Don't let the cartoons scare you off. The movie is absolutely hysterical, and should be seen by anyone who has ever worked in an office setting or a restaurant. You'll love his witty observations of the daily spectacles we call work. I have to admit, this movie was a huge influence on me getting out of the corporate environment. It justified my feelings and boredom of working in a cubicle all day.
