Can I just say one thing?

:lol:
 
So I put that '69 Camaro and Toyota Tundra super TH's on eBay packaged with a Mars Rover for $25 shipped and they sold almost immediately. Should have listed them for $30. :P Didn't do any hunting this weekend, my full size Hot Wheels was busy breaking my back and I still didn't get it finished.
 
Don't mention it! It's always fun seeing a bunch of people use similar avatars.

So we just copy and past it to our profile pic?

"Copy and paste" can mean either copying the image or copying the image URL.

When you're dealing with images showing up on the internet, you're almost always looking at the image address.

In this case, you can save the image on your computer, and upload it as that's all GTP can do at the moment.
 
I rove toy peddler:

Hot Wheels Red Line Club '69 Chevy Camaro

I had one on 50% off or whatever sale from one seller, he totally balked on it. Took me another month or so to find this one, which is loose, but also was much cheaper, so I'm happy with it. :)👍

Greenlight '70 AAR Cuda - HW Racing Duster - HW WhatYouMightCallIt '71 GTX

@ranhammerR34: I was going to use the one you're using, but out of respect I'll use the AE86 instead. I originally picked the AE86 before making a final decision anyways. :)
You got gypped!(more by circumstance, not so much by ranhammer) Way to be a good sport about it though. I'd have cried about it for about four to five pages. Who are we kidding, at least for ten pages. At least.

You killed me with that post. :drool:

I'm just thankful this Chevy didn't set me back $85(less than 10% of that).
Weird time to get this thought, but I need to get off my posterior and photograph the cars I already have rather than new additions. :dunce:

Anyway, I'm looking for a '69 Camaro from a premium line and from at least three years ago. You finding yours doesn't help my Camaro deprivation. :P
 
When I begun collecting , I used get amused by these seasoned collectors chasing old Camaros. :crazy: These days, I find myself buying more & more old Camaros. I don't get it. :nervous:
 
Giving it some thought.... Maybe it's not strictly about the casting, per se. It probably have some to do with the cool theme/tampo treatment Mattel give these cars.

@AOS- I was going to try shipping your cars out tomorrow morning, but I just realized that I can't ship international from the kiosk(I always mail before post office actually open in the morning). I will get them out by Wednesday at the latest!

P.S. Somewhat related: I had somebody use 'buy it now' on one of my eBay auctions?(mainline NSX Concept) Buyer said he'll have the payment for me soon on 'cash on pickup'. All my auctions says "PayPal Only" & this guy have zero feedback with address in New Jersey(I'm other side of the continent). This should be interesting.
 
I had the buyer from my '69 Camaro & Toyota Tundra $uper contact me today to complain about a bend in the card on the Camaro which I clearly pointed out in the auction. I told him that, no response yet. Hopefully he doesn't become a pain in the rear.

Who cares. First thing he should've done was to go back to the auction page & double checked the description. Sounds like you did everything right & the buyer failed to do his part twice.

Edit: Check that. Your avatar is a fail. WTF Jason!
 
Might go shopping for cars after class tomorrow, if I get anything good I'll post the pics. Hopefully I can get some more Cool Classics.
 
Indeed, Jason and Cano as well for that matter, need to get on board with this HW avatar cult thing we have going.
You are right, I forgot about Cano. Maybe there is no Miata for Jason, but they got RX-7 in all three colors...... Do you want Furai with that?
Also feel free to send me that RLC Camaro any time you want. That is awesome. :drool:👍
This cult is pretty tight, but not quite yet that tight. Maybe someday!

Thank you.
Hopefully I can get some more Cool Classics.
Unless you are talking about the Toyota Pickup, no.

:P
