I'll take a guess.. Wing mirrors from a later iteration of the same car, 2003-2004 maybe? That and missing canards from the front (understandable at that scale).

Nope. Still nopes to everyone who guessed. :embarrassed:

I'll have to take another pic to show you guys. I'm really blown away by such a disaster.

Paint blemish, underneath the rear light cluster, maybe? (right hand side).

Oh, and those are wing mirrors from a later iteration, (though obviously not the the fault you speak of), just saying.

[EDIT]

Rear diffuser vanes are too short/don't poke out enough.. or just simply aren't there?

Nope. :lol:

[EDIT]

Can't be the lack of rear screen air-box, as that appears to be correct, as are the headlights.

(I'm looking at pics of the real life 2001 car as i type).

The Mobil 1 decal under the taillight looks off?

It looks like it says "M°bil 1" instead of "Mobil 1."

Yeup, was my first sale of the day, didn't last 10 minutes hangin' in my stand. True story.
Was it online, or in person? If in person, maybe the guy doesn't have internet. :lol:

P.S. I've had couple of unexpected Greenlight sales on eBay. One car sold for almost $40, another, a pair for $52. I invested the funds into TLVs already. :D
 
I had someone make an offer on my lot of six '08 Focus's. The listing price was $25, he offered $18.

I'll say that again. He offered $18 out of his own will.

I set the listing to automatically accept offers if it's at a certain point, and he was bang on.

He then goes on asking me if he could maximize his spending by giving a discount on something else since he felt he "overpaid" for the lot. :lol:
 
I've been eyeying the Tomica Limited City, but I never found one under $20. I may wait until TLV do one, or get the Kyosho. I generally prefer the "turbo", but stock looks nice, too. 👍

Give him discount on something else, let him overpay some more. :D

Or, you could get the original, Made-In-Japan version of City at the same price.

I attempted to work with him on it, but since he already sent payment before messaging about it and that he stopped responding to any further messages, I just took his money and shipped the cars. Hope he doesn't be an ass and say I didn't give him anything.
 
It's high if you know where to look, but it's not bad if we're comparing to other eBay prices (including ones sold).

$25 is high, but hey, if you offered me $18, wouldn't that mean you were ready and willing to pay that much in the first place? 💡
 
The FE models ask for the most of the bunch, but if I recall correctly, I paid between $3-5 for the 3: the blue, yellow, and orange. The black mystery model I paid either $4 or $6 for, and the 2013 orange as well as the black I got locally.

Without counting shipping, I ain't making a lot back.

Currently trying to sell my 6 CLK-DTMs. That I'll make a great profit with if someone bids on it.
 
Sweet camp trailer. 👍

@Spacegoat - Whatever you do, don't touch that TLV "Curry" truck that just came up for preorder. I have read before that TLV guy was little bit nuts, but that is disgusting(hint: poo). Retro Crown's look nice though. I may have to go with the green one they show for January.

I was just curious. Like you said, he's the one who made the offer of $18. :crazy:
