Really appreciate this video. It can be a mine field knowing if any of these unfamiliar online shoos are even safe. So thanks for this presentation. Really good 👍 cheers my man.

Hey! How's it going? Great to see you here and thanks man I appreciate the comment too. Spent a huge amount of time on research for this vid. I was just telling someone else that it's very difficult to please the entire global and I know that a lot of countries won't get the same deals as each other but hopefully this guide will help a lot of collectors to find more of what they're looking for! How's your week been? Have you managed to get out and go hunting for hot wheels? I'm going to hit the shops tomorrow for sure. Next video is unboxing and I'll be putting the drag loop to good use once again! See you there bro 🚗💨

@@customcollects it's a very helpful video. When you're looking for that car you just can't find...then you stumble across it on an unfamiliar website , you never know if you can trust it. So having all these shops you can vouch for is really helpful info. Yes I await any race which is pending with baited breath. I'm not too sure what it is...but I just love a good drag. Man it is so difficult not to spend money in this hobby though isn't. No wonder we all get in the habit of being mini scalpers...it just helps pay for it. I was just saying to Joe over at ID in the comments to a vid of his how we defo pay more for mainlines in uk. They pay $1 right, which is 80p...but we ain't paying 80p are we but more like 1.80...so what's that extra quid for ? Mind you it's always been the same across all hobbies. We always pay more for less choice.

Hey man! Yes for sure check out all of these beauties as just like you said. If you can't find it then building a basket of 5-10 products can easily make online shopping cheaper than the extortionate prices we face here in the uk 🇬🇧 Amazon Japan is elite. And don't forget. Like I said in my previous upload it's a good 3500 mile journey for American based products to ship out to England. International duties, logistics and taxes will make sure that the UK has to pay big for buying products outside of Europe. The other side of coin is that our money and its value will affect prices for everything we consume too. It's like comparing US gas prices to UK fuel prices. It's just how things are. On a lighter note... you'll be very pleased to learn that I managed to secure my purple RLC skyline! Did you try for it? You're totally right that this hobby will forever keep us eagerly waiting for the end of the month 😉 totally worth it! Always 👍

This was a splendid video man! I already knew 3-4 of these pages, only bad thing is the ABSURD shipping prices on some of them like EntertainmentEarth, they have such a high price I cannot even get worth with 10 products. I will check the others and will save this video on my favourites tab for reference, thank you so much!

Awesome! Thanks man. That's amazing that you could discover so many websites that are new to you. I am very happy that you'll be saving my hard work for another time as for sure a lot of time went into the research for this one. Looking forward to my next unboxing and also a drag race 👍 thanks for giving further information about entertainment earth. From making a few videos about other websites and chatting to Diecast collectors from around the world I'm discovering that some countries complain that it's expensive and others get lucky and their country must be on list where shipping rates works for them. It's always hard to try and make a video that will make every person from all around the world happy but I hope you can find some get deals in the future mate and thanks always for your kind words and support. You are a great person! 🚗💨

@@customcollects You're also a great person mate! I'm now checking if I can get the Ultra Hots mixes... Love those, but can't find a decent shipping. What's the shipping cost for you on HotMatch or Jcardiecast? The cheapest for me is HotMatch for 15-20 shipping cost... Which I still believe is quite a lot
@customcollects3 ай бұрын
Oh man! Yeah I've got a few ultra hots that I picked up in a B&M bargain store near me. The B&M store is featured in my hot wheels hunting video upload. They cost £3 each which is a good price for an ultra hot. I've also seen sets of them on Amazon UK. Something like 6 cars for £14 and free shipping. JcarDiecast starts to make sense if you're happy to drop £150+ which isn't bad really. US websites that have shipping worked out well like Jcar have prices that make sense to UK collectors like me. Don't forget that one premium cost £9 here so it's not difficult to find cheaper deals from other countries 😂 that's why I'm here making these videos as I know so so many other collectors will find my research helpful and I'm a big fan of hunting for great deals and best prices as you can tell I'm passionate about pricing etc in the videos that I make. Amazon Japan dude! That's where it's at for me. Again. If you drop £100-150+ on an order I can get premiums down to like £6 each instead of 9. Just gotta keep trying until the maths makes sense. Just take the total price including shipping and divide that number by each car you are buying to discover is your basket total makes financial sense to you. If not... then perhaps "treating" yourself to the evil eBay tax is the only other option. You're very welcome and thanks always for stopping by the channel and very great to talk with you too 🚗💨👍

Ahhh. That's a tough one to snipe mate. I've actually just had a Quick Look for you on my UK list and the best has to be £35 on eBay UK... ouch! Do you have the other 5 cars? It's gonna be a hard one to find as the UK is unlikely to see this set hung up in store. Even America was surprised to see Mix 1 only in 7/11 stores. I guess that's why MIX 2 Doesn't have a chase. No one could find the Camaro 😂 it's very very elusive. I'd say keep an eye on AliExpress but as time goes on the car becomes more and more scared so prices will only rise. I really hope you can finally get yours one day my guy! Keep on hunting 🫡 🚗

Do you think it's a great job? I'm very very happy that you enjoyed the photography for this one. Real Diecast collectors appreciate the art. I got to enjoy my Ford mustang treasure hunt the car used for website 12. Thanks always mate for being the best and I hope you have a lot of fun browsing online searching for my Diecast goodness! And lastly. Did you score the purple RLC skyline for yourself? It will be a great day when my order is finally delivered to me 👍 wish you always a great day. Hope you can find the time to hit the shops in real life and hunt for more hot wheels. Have a great day! 🚗💨
