I Got Scammed! 4 x Hot Wheels Factory Sealed Cases

[@PeakTimeRacing]

Did the factory workers or the seller steal them?

[@vincentbanksjr.7509]

Looked sealed but why take all 3 chases don't think they let just anybody do that they should come with sticker on cards so u know 4 sure like the year box

[@vincentbanksjr.7509]

R they all from same seller

[@Blake-s8r]

Peaktimeracing i have this hot wheal it’s like a purple Lamborghini I can show you a video if you want

[@amazingcars1324]

OMG I can't believe you had that happen

[@ADOUBLEA]

Man this was absolutely brutal to watch. Thankfully you opened them up so you know they were tampered with. Imagine if you had kept them sealed not knowing. Absolutely horrible regardless do what you gotta do to get your money back.

[@hyperrabbit1710]

That's probably the calmest any can be after being scammed.

[@rexatcecg]

Similar happened to me years ago! Got the mainline factory sealed set. All the Supers were gone. Replaced with old vans, still sealed!

[@mushu_mazda8977]

How did they do that?

[@htwhls]

oh no my friend, I understand your pain, it’s a huge tragedy to find a chase version with a broken blister. Liked in support.

[@kedronking]

The scalper guy from Walmart hit your box too! wtf!?!?!?

[@KadeBronson]

I wish you did more peg hunting videos. That is some of my favorite content and have been doing a lot myself lately. Stay warm up there in Canada, Phil.

Fr man

[@choyliangleu412]

I like the cars

[@choyliangleu412]

But the Mclaren ,Koansizegg,Lanborghini and the Bugatti

[@hongmaichen3085]

My guess would be that it happened in the factory. Everything looks sealed well. The seller could have no idea. In mass-production factories usually, there is a production vault for some copies of products (cars, in this case) they ever produced, A) for complaint purposes, if a manufacturing error happens; B) for future reference if a re-run is to be planned. But as too many copies of cars are lying around, there might be some people starting to think to make use of them and sneak a few around. That might be the case here as Chases were taken out from the final assembly line for packaging and Chases were taken out from the factory to eBay. Remember these workers probably do not get paid well in 3rd world countries...I have heard similar stories before. Should the seller really want to scam you, he would probably taken out that skyline that is worth 200 dollars...

[@Cobalt2348]

Can we get an update on what happened with that tampered set

[@tedkimbap]

im most impressed with your positive attitude. At least the Mountain drifters chase was mint. 😅

[@AphexTwinII]

They open the box from the bottom so the factory seals aren't broken.

[@marcoantoniomarquezperez2652]

The Dragstrip is definitely my favorite set out of all of them. I never found it though. The one I do have has my fav Hyper car of all time and that's Jay Leno's garage. It is very unfortunate when you spend good money expecting certain cars, but you did do a live unboxing there is proof they screwed with your case. Who has to answer? Your seller or Mattel. That's up to you, but I would contact both and show them the video. I still recall when you got mega scammed with those mystery car packs.

[@JonToyCars]

Cool to have a whole room just for shooting videos, cause you can keep all the gear ready! Those light panels are the Neewer ones?

[@cuda426hemi]

Looks like you can get in the bottom of box easy. Any tape a little isopropyl myristate will remove with no residue - just dab w/Q Tip. Mattel would reimburse if bought from them so it's the re-seller whether dirty or not should make it right. 👀

[@Aftarmath]

Jay Leno Tank Car is cool. Collctors are just boring

[@Steeziii47]

Damn man, you got me tempted to open the 2 cases I ordered to make sure everything in them is correct! I got cases 1/4 and 3/4, so I hope nothing is switched around or damaged. [Edit] Did you by chance purchase these on Walmarts website whenever they were in stock? That's how I got mine

[@PeakTimeRacing]

I purchased them from a private seller but they were factory sealed. Personally I think they were tampered with at the factory. I think you should open yours.

[@Steeziii47]

@@PeakTimeRacing that's what I noticed too, I seen the factory sealed sticker looked intact on your boxes. But the fact some of the contents were totally different has me thinking it could be the same for me also. I'll open them later today and give an update!

[@Handlinyomommascheeks]

Don’t buy anything at Walmart they take everything that’s valuable since Walmart are mixed together w another company from China which is known to scam ppl and Walmart does NOTHING if you want a refund.

[@Apears4]

@@Steeziii47can we get an update please

[@Steeziii47]

@@Apears4 my box had everything as intended! I most start to sell the premiums on my whatnot live streams if you ever want to check them out!

[@Chopped_cheese]

Lucky you were able to get the lbwk. Would’ve sucked if that was switched out 😊

[@commonsensehill372]

What I have learned today from this video... If it does not come directly from Mattel, then it cannot be trusted to have what you pay for. Resellers are nothing more than scalpers.

[@AnekoF90]

People should stop buying stuff from resellers. That's the only way they would vanish.

[@commonsensehill372]

@@AnekoF90 You are right, people should stop buying from scalpers... but I fear that the scalpers will continue to thrive because people covet things and some will do anything to obtain that one thing that eludes them even if they have to pay a higher price for it.

[@danielreed3666]

The yellow Mercedes Benz with the Fleet Flyer Flyer Team Transport is nice (and the Galaxy with it's Transport,have both Don't have the Nissan Silvia and it's hauler, likely snatched before I can get it)

[@felixwankel3989]

Mattek does itself no favors with how it currently does business. Wou.d collect myself but shipping costs are unreasonable and are no local venders, save for walmart.

[@brötzmannsax]

After watching this video several times, the box is not tamper proof as long as that holographic seal isn't protecting the case from being opened, the foil seal should have to be sliced open on that lip instead of opening attached to the little flap. The rest is just tape you sliced but the holographic seal should be the security seal insuring it's factory sealed, they did the same thing with the football card frenzy the last few years.

[@z4chd1zzl3]

they still arent tamper proof, you can open these boxes from the bottom and put them back like it never happened

[@scottgeene1770]

At least they gave you a Nissan skyline wagon....and not another peg warming tank car .. usually if someone's going to go through the trouble to take out a piece they either don't put anything else in it

[@nicklasschmltt6959]

Wow. You really paid top dollar, you did get some nice cars, though. And transports. I am currently awaiting my first mail order case as i am new to the hobby. Lol . After i gave my friends kidds, a handful of hot wheels for christmas . Old ones i had kicking around from the 80s. Now i want to trade back for them. Lol. Because i gifted them. Live and learn as they say. Ayyy

[@urideamabal]

That's not right!!! Please, do a fallow up on what happened..... 😡🤬

[@NitrousDiecast]

Happy new year from Alberta!

[@PhNatiK]

Gotta pause it at 30sec, nice intro! OK, back to the video

[@CycolacFan]

That’s the problem with collectibles worth $200-300 each; they’re a month’s wages to those factory workers. And from what I’ve been told Mattel don’t care.

[@timburnette5914]

Dude I’m sorry that they stole from you! That was a lot of money you paid and I hope your seller finds what happened and gets the cars to you

[@SaihirBishoon-bz9be]

I got the LB-ER34 super silhouette Nissan skyline

[@dblastdiecast7402]

Not sure who the scammer was here. It could be anyone along the line of people who handled it. Not gonna project my ideas how as this hobby is full of people willing to do anything for a buck.

Okay the title isn't the problem this video is awesome

Very cool castings peak time racing

[@thegromblerdiecast]

Hey man love the videos and i've been watching for the past 5 ish years. How are you able to make your videos look so good and are there any tips for making diecast videos. Im trying to improve my channel and I thought I would ask you! Great vid keep up the great work

[@164thscaleracing]

See if you hadn't opened them you wouldn't have known it's a bummer. Saw in Walmart the other day a twin mill in a boulevard card where someone bought it changed it out and brought it back.

[@CottoNeo]

I wish I was as lucky as you to be in the condition that you can buy any hotwheels you want

[@smallmodelcollector]

Mattel does a good job training new kids and adults to be greedy. No different than any other hyped up toys that will later become worthless. They're just cashing in while they can knowing new collectors will skip the Walmart category and just buy realistic 1/64 models like MiniGT and up.

[@robertmarquess8522]

I've seen a KZbin video showing you can use a heat gun to remove the factory seal and then seal it back. I was expecting it to be the Liberty Walk Skyline that was swapped.

[@loltrol1725]

yep. i had the same story with 1/4 but they stole the TT's not the chase

[@thecardaddict]

How you can get it resolved! Please let us know how it turns out.

[@nafishaziq]

They open from bottom of the box i guessed

[@1yris1]

Aren't they all supposed to have the factory set holographic sticker on each card also?

[@PeakTimeRacing]

No. That’s factory sealed mainline cases only.

[@YusufPetersenCPT]

man if that were my box i would be pissed!!!!

[@ParrotPlays_]

I only own the silvia 15 Team Transport in which you showed and i coulf own the r34 team transport if only my mom bought it in time from Amazon (the 15 is also from Amazon)

[@messaroundhandleit]

I don't understand why people support mattel, they make subpar toys with no control over broken and stolen items.

[@jamesburke9535]

Where can you pick up these sets from?

[@digitalx3136]

Welp whoever it was wasnt too smart to not take the liberty walk lol

[@mikedale1260]

Id be soo pissed off id box them all up and return them to mattel broken blisters and missing chase mattel needs to have better quality control

[@mickacya5645]

got scammed exact same way. Was very upset

[@Okay_koza]

where did you buy your display shelfs behind? do you have a link please?

[@IMLiteralInsanity]

I blame the seller get your money back the bottom can easily be open without tampering with the seals

[@DTToTrill]

Can u do a race with all rubber wheel cars plz love to see it on ur track

[@vincentmostacci1025]

I feel the seller didn't.. why ? .. Bec why didn't he just take 1 the skyline library walf instead of the jay Leno chases .. but I didn't see the box that well maybe was opened .. before saying anything to seller ask them where did they get it first.. maybe from a different seller .. that's a good question factor / or seller . With everything going on I wouldn't put it pass the factory

[@MascarDisplays]

Hey Phil! We have some awesome displays we would love to send you!

[@danielreed3666]

If cases were pre-sealed, when were the chases taken out? Before it left the Hot Wheels/Mattel factory (a inside job)? Or did someone went to the trouble of carefully unsealing EACH of the boxes,taking the chases and then resealing the boxes hoping none will be the wiser? Was there any external evidence of tampering before you opened them? Sad that you spent good money, only to get less what you wanted!

[@bootlegcraig6525]

The bottom flaps on the box open easily. That’s how they take them out without cutting the seals.

[@bethsherman754]

@@bootlegcraig6525 Man that seems like a total design flaw/fail on Mattel's part then. Ugh. Good thing he opened them on camera. Of course they could come back and say he opened them from the bottom, replaced them, and tried to get away with it. I don't think that's what happened of course, but an update would be great on how this was resolved.

[@britishbadger92h39]

How’s he get the boxs ? I would love to start collecting a learn the best one to collect if anyone can link or comment how to get them boxs be nice

oh man, you are absolutely scammed by the seller, the nissan laurel team transport was from the early ones (to check the edition of team transport, you can see the number, and the number for nissan laurel is 2) while you should have gotten the red LBWK nissan skyline (no 44), definitely switched, bcs the red LBWK is priced so high (at least in my country), you definitely should request remedy from the seller

The cases were sealed with multiple pieces of tape. What are you talking about? If the tape was tampered with you'd be able to tell.

[@hwhunter3589]

Not if opened from bottom of box, no seals on bottom!!! Very easy to do if yer the type of person who would do something like that!!! Very sad jus screws up the hobby!! If I had to guess it was probably done by the person who sold that one box to the person who sold it to this person!!! Definitely a scalper reseller who had 6 year old cars laying around to switch with the ones they took!!
