Trying to think of 1:64 cars (any brand) to look for on eBay.
Old, rare, uncommon, whatever. Just not new things :\

English matchbox cars and hot wheels redlines will be your best bet.

Superfast Lesney Edition is a 2010 release.
That's great you wanted to find an old car or two, but be wary of any adverse side effects, scammers and real hidden treasures. Some people spend a lifetime never finding the one item they need, and as a result go looney. Please contact a local historian to know if collecting old cars are for you.

The only problem is the more rare it is the less chance of it being put on the auction block - which is what makes it rare.
There are also many 'private' auctions sites that are only known to collectors who are actually keeping an eye on other collector's collections - and that applies to everything, from stolen art to ancient die-cast cars.
ebay is a good place to start looking, though; many collectors give up on their collections and may have gems in the collection that may mean a lot to individual collectors.
Now there's a way to start a sentence with a simple letter.
Err... no . . . this isn't a 1/64. It's very much smaller.
Maybe I should put it in the Scale Model thread.
Not totally built to 'scale', though.

I went to the BX and bought some more hotwheels cars. I also got some matchbox cars for the first time in a while.

I like RLC(Red Line Club) cars. Especially the "Real Riders" series. Some are crazy expensive, like my Silverado for $85. Some of the best ones I have are more in the $20~ish range though(SS Express, Custom Mustang).
Blue Blown Deliver is a love/hate casting, I LOVE it. From Lamley:
Edit: This is cool just for the chrome & paint finish. '67 Camaro(also Real Riders series).
I passed on ALL of them. I wish we had Retro Entertainment & Pop Culture cars instead. They are nowhere to be seen.

Probably. I've seen more of those than 72 count cases.

Maybe Monster Jam too. I think 5-packs are usually 8 to a box, 9-packs are 4 or 5 to a box.

My goal starting the year was to seriously cut down on buying hot wheels, selling good chuck of what I have...... Damn it. It was just too nice of a deal, and they are so damn charming. 
If not on me, it's always close to me.Watchu doin' waving a knife around like that? Don't you got a toothpick or something?

Cheers @Spacegoat.
I also agree about the petrol pump shots. Adds a nice feel to the shots.
That Silverado of @a6m5 also looks bloody nice, but that $85 meatball is too spicy.

Indeed. For maybe, half that? I'd be interested. $85 nope. Still as long as a6 is happy with it.
Just noticed this. Dear god man, don't you own a toothpick or something?

Yeah, I'm not gonna do a @Cano and laugh right at him (trolol) but it is a bit much. Like you say, maybe around $40 (incl. shipping) but, yes.
And also, toothpicks are not very samurai (

Perfect post. 👍
Thanks guys! I'll try to mix it up more(I'm lazy lol). 👍
That Silverado looks cooler than the other side of the pillow. I understand it's value but still, $85 though.
Well, I don't disagree. It took me weeks(maybe months) of drooling before I decided to bite the bullet. Again though, I'm glad I did. It's not like you are getting ripped off, if the price is consistent with the market price.
Not you too!Just noticed this. Dear god man, don't you own a toothpick or something?
Everybody I know carries a pocket knife!We have a thread for larger diecast, but OMG....... OMG.
