^Tell me about it. That's at least a 3000% profit on the Veyron alone if sold.

Words cannot express what I am feeling right now.
 
wyvern's a sensei, at least that's what I refer to him as. That Mustang is a beauty. Real riders, 99 cents. I guess I get the sloppy third, fourth or whatever, but I want my turn, too. Sorry, that was wrong.

Cano's always biting our heads off for overpaying, but if there was one person who could yell at Cano for the very same thing, it would be this man. Just ridiculous. :crazy:
 
If he doesn't want it, start another pile for me!

Edit: Wait, this is how I get in trouble. I take that back, no pile for me. For now.
 

A Top Secret Gold R32, Carded ACR, R34 and a Veyron?!?!

Screw you! And give them to meeeeeee.....

R1600Turbo
I got mine loose but in good shape for $.50. :dopey:

Lucky. :P If you do run into anymore R32s in gold, remember me ;).

@Sony: Well, I took my meds, that's why I didn't pass out :lol:. But I was amazed with the Mars Rover and the set that comes with it, good find regardless. Got me flustered, but I had some water so I'm perfectly fine.
 
HOW DO YOU STILL FIND STUFF LIKE THAT FOR SO CHEAP?

obligatory caps.

Can you buy some stuff for us, man?

I check this store a couple times a week The price stickers are all dated so you can tell if the stuff is new or not. I was there yesterday and everything I bought was dated 2/23, 2/24 or 2/25, so it hadn't been there long. The stuff they have is just what people trade in. They do in store trade at 30% of the expected sale price, so whomever traded this lot would have received less than $4. Then I pay roughly $12. 👍
 
Ah, that wasn't as screw you as I thought I'd see, mainly because everything is post-2000 and I have it all, lol, or at least what I like of it. Normal prices on all of the mainline stuff too. Obviously there's the Real Riders cars and stuff that's digustingly cheap for 1 buck like the rare Fire Rods Charger, but I was expecting something really massive. Sell the Veyron away and everything's free!
 
Ah, that wasn't as screw you as I thought I'd see.


Well, it's not all about you. :lol: How about these. Picked them for $3.98 (for both) The renault had a cracked blister and the car was loose in the shipping envelope.

Ah, way better. Way more Wyvernish, as I would expect. No screw you because I already have them lol, but nice cars.
 
There's more screwing going on in this thread than in the Customising thread.

Question to you Japanese folk - It says 'Hot Wheels' on the car (in Japanese) and must obviously be taken as a brand name - but what does 'Hot Wheels' mean in Japanese?
Stolen Cars?
Burning Circles?
Flaming Axles?
Smoking Rubber?

What do you conceptualise - in Japanese?
