Sweet finds, everything I’ve been looking for. That Merc I think will be one of the best, if not the best super of 2025. Those boulevards dropped in November but haven’t made it my way yet, I really want Fluffy’s Samba van. Sode note, I’ll be practicing entering my credit card info and click exercises for tomorrow’s 2024 STH release on Mattel’s site. If you’ll excuse me I’ve got to get back to it, and ensure I can “Add to cart” faster than the scalpers

@MasterDebator-l7u it's going to go fast and for resale. It took me awhile for the Boulevard to get here also. Sometimes I get them fast in Pa and so stuff slow. Good luck.

Good rant. I think the value we put on some of these things is silly and usually don't care about scalpers until I can't find something I want. Then I cuss them. 2) Cool gasser collection! I also collect the gassers and drag cars. And the '60s muscle cars, and Corvettes and lead sled customs and the hot rods and...3) Funny about buying the Art Car just to customize. I went through a number of the alphabet '57 Chevies last summer just so I could have them in candy red and metalflake blue, etc. I like it when I find a casting that I like but don't care for the deco; I don't feel so bad about sanding it off. I can see some fluorescent Volvo gassers in my collection's future. What a fun hobby, just try to keep it fun, I guess, and don't get too caught up in the money/business bs part of it

Question for you, I’ve been subscribed/watching for past couple months, with your sets that include a chase (0/5) do you include those or go 1-5 only? I ask because I can’t ever find anything but the 1-5 anytime I’m shopping and I consider that the full set but maybe I’m wrong

A lot of bent cards are from the case boxes getting crunched. One of our local Walmarts have a tendency for warped cards due to the cases getting wet. Scalpers look for opportunity. If they collect, it's just an opportunity to resell down the road. Many hot item cars will cycle back to the pegs, so Joe Scalper may end up with cars that get reissued again. When you start seeing cars on the pegs, that you were looking for, all of a sudden the pegs are full again, with those same cars. I've bought a few Transport sets that were 2 ir 3 years old.

I take too many duplicates but omce i have my fill i dont take more and its all for custom, some for trade and the others to keep original in the packet

If you want to customize and sell for what it's worth with your time and additional parts that is not scalping.if you just want to buy it and jack up the price because you think you can make a profit, now that is scalping, to me that is stealing from a child who might just be getting into the collecting scene. I never buy a th or sth unless I like it and even then it comes out of the package. A real collector only buys what they like and not to profit off it. I bought an $18 set for $20 and didn't mind because he did the leg work and even delivered it to me. That I don't mind

Scalpers when they over inflate tge price of the casting to a hobby collector from a 1.25 main line / 6-10 dollars for a it should be 3-4 . A premium car from 7.49 - to 20-25 and up should be 10-15 for a hard car to find
