By the way guys, with my new job and living situation I will be changing some things up with collecting, etc. I will only have access now to a single Target, a single Walmart, a single KMart, and maybe a couple grocery stores to look for cars. However, my gross income each month will rise quite a bit so I will be purchasing whole 72 count cases every month. I will be keeping what I want, and then I will be starting up a webstore to sell the leftovers + some other stuff as sort of a "second job". No more eBay for me.

Great news mate. Best of luck with the new job. 👍
 
You know that sweet feeling, after getting outbid by a sniper with a handful of seconds left, and left going :banghead: 🤬 :crazy: but then two days later, seller sends you a second chance offer for the extra set he had, and you get to buy it one dollar cheaper than your last minute sniper? I'm now out $51, but I feel like this: :embarrassed:
D'you have an explanation as to why one says "Station Wagon" while the other doesn't?
You mean you've seen two different cards & they say different things? I have R34 Skylines, one says Skyline, other does not. Dunno why.
 
Wow I really can't expect a whole lot more from the Road Racers now anymore. Only $36 now? :(

And no, I'm looking at that listing you linked and the text is different in the two pictures. Look at the two pictures again.


Also:

Thanks, Jason!

Good for me. :D

I'd suspect that he stole one, or both of the pics from other people. Good eye!
 
I wonder if it could "encourage" people to bid like crazy to buy my Road Racers had I made some demonstrating video of me torching one of them followed by stating who's next at what time.


Hmm..



"NOOO! DON'T BURN IT! THAT'S SUCH A 🤬 WASTE! IT COULD BE IN MY COLLECTION INSTEAD! 🤬! WE NEED TO TAKE IT OFF HIS HANDS RIGHT AWAY! HE DOESN'T 🤬 DESERVE TO BE A COLLECTOR! THIS 🤬 SHOULD GO DIE!"



Hmmmmmm..... I wonder.
 
Well here is what I picked up last week.

Another Bump Around I just had to get. Pity it was the only one they had other wise I would have bought another one for customizing.

Yet another Viper for customizing. Been getting ideas lately.

Pleasantly surprised to see the Island Hopper and the Rodzilla. I always had a thing for the Rodzilla.

Going back to Wal Mart today thankfully. Had a lot of new ones last time I went and I ran out of time. I am hoping they haven't moved the dump bins anywhere.
 
Finally posting the pics I promised you guys a couple of weeks ago.

Also Racegrooves has a new video.


Someone we all know is mentioned in it.
 
Just watched that before you posted that video.
Waiting for him to do a G case un boxing then I might go hunting for G case cars.
 
@a6m5 were you looking for the zombie truck?

I picked that up today, happy to post if anyone is still interested.
I appreciate the offer, but I'll keep looking locally. Nice find! 👍 I think I know why I can't find any though....... They all went to Australia!

:lol:
I know nothing about the Road Racers series but it seems like a great deal to me. So congrats on that. 👍
Thank you! To be honest, I had forgotten all about it until I happen to run into a pic of the M3. M3's nice, but that Greenwood Corvette. :drool: Prices these sellers are asking for, just for those two cars, I figured I could pretty much buy the entire set. :crazy: They are the cars that were sold only in Canada, so they were going for big money. I think I spent $18 on the Porsche alone back when.

Is it Tucker Fellows?(Gotbeefboy?)

Awesome cars Ben. 👍

Glad to see someone else on here getting some Monster Jam trucks.

Only one I ever bought before this was the Donkey Kong. Zombie would've been the second ever, but like with the Donkey Kong, nostalgia kicked in & I caved. :lol:

P.S. I'll have the total for your shipment soon. I just finished the list last night.
 
Haven't posted in a while, been busy with stuff lately. And purchasing has been quiet (no thanks to the stores around here having pretty much nothing new). I'll put up some pics later of the past month or so's buys.
