Condition
Please look carefully at pictures as they provide a good insight into overall condition. I will try to also document in the description how it rolls, thus giving an insight into the condition of the axles and wheels. Just about everything listed has been played with (rightfully so) at some point in it’s life, so paint chips, scratches, etc. are very common. If you have any questions, please ask! I’m more than happy to answer!
Dates of cars
Some die cast cars (especially Hot Wheels) may have dates on the bottom that are earlier than what are in my listings. The date that I list the car with is the issue year of that version of the original casting. Example, Mattel (Hot Wheels) leaves the date from the first year a casting is used, and may reuse the same casting for years after. So, a car with a 1972 date on the bottom may have another version of it issued in 1978, but the date on the bottom of the car will still be 1972. I try to be as accurate as I can through research, as I want to make sure you have the most accurate information when considering a purchase.
Shipping
Shipping charges are per box. I use three different new cardboard box sizes, 4”x4”x4”, 6”x4”x4” and 7”x4”x4”. Obviously cases, etc. take larger boxes, so shipping is adjusted accordingly.
I can safely pack 1-3 1/64 scale cars into one 4”X4”X4” box and 4-6 in the 6”x4”x4” and 7”x4”x4”, and will only charge for shipping of one box. All boxes are new to ensure your order gets to you in the condition you expect!
Each vehicle is individually wrapped in foam wrap, and then packed in shipping peanuts. Mmmmmm…..peanuts…..
