1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I believe Oregon is farther north than Tronno.

And of course you can use two arms; that's how many you have!



I lost one of mine recently.

 

[a6m5]

Are you pulling my leg?

 

[McZachenF1138]

Now I look dumb because my joke didn't work.

I was referring to how you said I had to give up a few of my limbs to pay for those four cars from eBay.

 

[a6m5]

God, I forgot about that joke. I was starting to feel bad man. I almost insisted Jason give one of the 599XX to you, then give me the other one.

 

[McZachenF1138]

👍

 

[Spacegoat]

Geez. I don't check this thread all day and look what happens, Zach's lost a limb and a6 has dementia.

I'm pretty old you know. Don't worry, I won't remember any of this tomorrow.

 

[McZachenF1138]

If I recall correctly when the two of you were talking about hats, a picture of a6 was posted apparently from the hats or MLB thread and he didn't look that old to me! Mid-twenties maybe.
This joke may be a continuation of one since before my time here in this thread, but can some one get me up to date on this.

 

[Spacegoat]

I believe you are referring to this? It me while to dig that comedy nugget up.

Perception is a funny thing, I never realised you were asian until you posted this.

FYI, Zach it was the old Era hat collection thread. 👍

Nothing more to it really, it's just some friendly banter.

 

[a6m5]

That guy looks freaky.

Some good news. My Top Gear Indestructable Toyota Hi-Lux has been shipped after the seller was on holidays. Its coming from England so hopefully it will be here in a week or 2. My collecting might also slow down soon because Im looking at buying another real car.

 

[McZachenF1138]

Ah, I see. And yes! That was the picture I was thinking of!

I think this is when Nessy Ford comes in a puts up that picture...

More of the Kyosho 1:64 Porsche 911 Turbo (993):

For the heck of it I was bidding on THIS but I am not winning anymore nor shall I try to bid again.

That's right, I got my eBay Bucks today and I got $3.00. 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Awesome. Thanks Jason. 👍

P.S. That Super Treasure Hunt 599XX you have on eBay? Some dude outbid me by 9 cents. Watch me 🤬 with him.

*Edit - I was gonna bid 1 cent more, but it wouldn't let me.

It's currently blowing up. This car is loose with a small mark on the roof and it's already passed up the amount my $uper Focus sold for and it was still in it's package...

Edit: SOLD! for $13...

Edit 2: Is there something about "No international shipping" and "Ships to: United States" that the winning bidder from Brazil didn't understand?

Kyosho 300zx 1:43 scale in metallic silver.

$uper TH #9 for 2013 is: (quite a looker)

 

[McZachenF1138]

That it is.
I'm curious as to know what segment that will be in.

I also want to know so bad what the rest of the Road Rally segment will be!
We already have the Countyman and C4 as part of that.
I hope they bring back the Peugeot from that rally series a while back.

They're actually going through with that?

They no english! Can I buy it off you?

Waiting to hear back from him.

 

[McZachenF1138]

Yeah, it says the names of the segments on the back of the cards.

 

[Dooblewasur]

So, I've been wondering, what's a good strategy for finding $upers? I've seen one that I remember, which I bought and sold. But y'all seem to be pretty lucky when it comes to these things.

Mobi

 

[McZachenF1138]

eBay.

 

[a6m5]

I concur. You either look for Hot Wheels all day long, or you need to be lucky. Or you look in Poland, apparently. Rest of us trade for them, or get them on eBay.

My collecting might also slow down soon because Im looking at buying another real car.

Priorities, priorities.

Ah, I see. And yes! That was the picture I was thinking of!

I should have never put that picture up.

599XX goes for more money than Focuses, period.

When you are setting up your auction, towards the end, go to the "buyer requirement" set up screen. There, you can block bids from people whose primary shipping address is overseas. I started tweaking that thing after a crafty non-paying bidder created a dummy account, outbid her own bid(found the item cheaper elsewhere) using this dummy account, then left me(the seller) hanging. I now block anyone who doesn't have a PayPal account.

That picture always freaks me out. Speaking of the good doctor, do you remember his introduction? Or was it before your time here?

Still one the funniest things I've ever read.

Damn.

eBay.

This, unfortunately.

 

[a6m5]

I thought you were talking about my picture, I was going "me too man, me too...."

I'll have to do that from now on. I'm giving him until tomorrow morning to answer my first message. Then I'll send a 2nd message telling him he has 24 hours to answer me then I'm selling it to the next highest bidder.
