just wondering with all the ebay scams out there if maybe you paid a grand for a picture of a luxe?
i know the luxe doesnt take the macroline but a picture of a luxe is another matter.
on a more serious note, you say you took it apart and no line was inside, as suggested read the manual regarding air feed. and perhaps add an air tank with air in it to your luxe and then maybe it will work unless its been put back together incorrectly.
