I scored the other week, With these: I am now up to 63 of the red '73 Trans Ams. But only 15 of the Knight Riders, as I sold one to some guy from England. George

Man, I have never had a problem like this one. I bought a White Lightning Trans Am off ebay, and paid what the guy wanted with shipping. The photo and ad said in excellent condition, so I bid, and won. I get it in a stupid manila envelope, with just the cardboard protecting the paper cardstock, not the bubble section, with the car. Sure enough, the bubble section is crushed big time. I contacted the ebayer who sold it, asking what he can do. I got three emails from him, cussing me out, telling me I have to eat it. And that I paid the cheapest shipping. WTH? I paid what he told me to pay, when he sent me the invoice. I have always gotten carded diecast in PM boxes, not like this. On top of this, he paid half of what I paid him for shipping. I contacted ebay, but they say they can't do much, but monitor him. He has a record of cussing people out in emails. What a jerk. I hope to meet up with him in real life. Oh, and his reply to me giving him a negative, is to post I am telling lies. I sent both ebay and him, photos of how it arrived. I sure hope no one else has any troubles like this. It leaves a mark taste for the diecast market. George

For a seller of diecast to ship that way is unacceptable.
To help protect myself from people like that I always add this under the message to seller.
Thanks...Please carefully package the car in a sturdy box to prevent shipping damage.
I read his replies to you and his other customers with problems and he is OVER THE TOP. He qualifies as a total DOUCHE BAG.

I like how he says I lied. I sent him photos and the same to ebay. I really think he pulled a fast one on me. I hate people like that. He has been the only one to ship it that way. usually, people send the package in a box, and it costs more. I always send them an email, asking if they want the difference in shipping, sent to them. So far, every person has said no, don't worry about it. For this guy to charge a set amount, then send it cheaper, and not in a box is pretty low. I do believe in Karma. George

I picked up a few new ones lately. I got these. Matchbox 1971 Firebird Formula. Hot Wheels 1967 Firebird 400. This is the Walmart Exclusive, which has redline tires. I did pick up some earlier, but I still have to go thru some photos. Enjoy! George
