$$$ is right, guessing a lot of $$$. :lol:

Those orange chrome wheels are aaaaaaaaawesome! :bowdown: (imo)

Nice finds. 👍
 
So I'm listing cars on eBay and I get a message that says:

"Mystery auction listings are not permitted on eBay. In general, mystery auctions (envelopes, boxes, etc) are listings where the seller doesn’t specifically identify the contents, number, quality or condition of the items for sale.."

I'm like WTF. Then I figured it out. One of the cars is the Scooby Doo "Mystery Machine". Because I have the word mystery in the title it won't let me list it. :rolleyes: Not only that I had planned on listing a 72 count Hot Wheels box as a "Mystery Box" (I've done this before) and that won't be allowed either. Screw eBay.

Haha, cute.

Ok smarty, your Auto World Mustang came in today. You will be getting a photo of the carded cars tomorrow so you can decide what you want ripped open for shipping. I'd like to get this shipped out ASAP, not sure I can wait for Andy's box to get here.

:lol: ok ok, but I would be a very happy man if you waited for AOS' box to arrive.
 
@yabiggoose Dude, I have the convertible version of that. At first, I thought it was the same car! Mine is loose(purchased loose), and I can tell you that GTO's one of my favorite examples of Greenlight of any type. I also have the red coupe, but with no spoiler. Also one of my favorites. Nice snag. 👍

Love the Focus. 👍 I like orange chrome, but on real riders(not sure what the wheels are called).
Is it bad I actually like them?
It's OK, I don't hate on blind children.

j/k :P

By my observation, Super Treasure Hunt don't seem to hold their initial hyped up value very well........ but 510's been the exception to many rules. I see this one easily holding $30(a lot for current $TH these days), then maybe going higher. Would it be another collectible which would make a good investment?

TTP's doing half price listings for the month of May on new(er) hot wheels. I listed all mainline I had for sale on there, and I think it was like 17 cents to list for cars under $5?

It is different, takes getting used to to the new system, but as I buy a lot on that site, I adapted fairly smoothly I think(still early). I think I've sold over 20 cars already. :D

My TTP sale page.

Anyway, brace for impact.
You big stud you. 👍👍
 
@yabiggoose. Sweet GTO mate, great find. 👍
CM's Corp Rally Car Collection SS.8.5 Peugeot 306

Hadn't seen that one before. Me likey. :drool:👍

Don't know, maybe? Might be worth tracking one down online after the initial hype (and subsequent inflated prices) dies down.

I just realized something else. From that one pic, I take it the stationwagon is going to make the mainline debut? Even the mainline version might get expensive to add to the collection. :crazy:
 
Seeing that it's mid-engined, it's arguably inspired by the KING manga CR-X.
My post on the topic. It's bit confusing, but contains the explanation from the horse's mouth.
I looked around a bit, but couldn't really find anything I had to have. I always welcome a tip though. 👍
Is it really a Chevy? What is it!? :dunce:

It's hard to spot with the crappy photos, but it's one of these: (bottom truck)

This is also how I scored my OH5 yellow Celica, got it for less than $5 shipped when it first was discovered because someone listed it on eBay not knowing it had a wheel variation. I never saw one in stores.

Edit: Image dump.
