  • Happy Canada Day fellow Canadians! Welcome back to my channel and online 1/64 scale diecast museum. In this video, the first video in a new series I will be uploading on a regular basis, we go hunting for a MYSTERY BOX full of awesome diecast collectible vehicles that have been in storage for a long time here in the basement. With over 60,000 cars and trucks in my collection, most never see the light of day, and many have been packed away for years, just as is the case with today's Mystery Box - featuring a wide variety of Hot Wheels RLC, Neo Classics, mail-away, and Mystery Cars featuring premium paint jobs, rubber Real Riders tires, and exclusive packaging from Hot Wheels Collectors Club. Most of these items cost a fair penny when first sold to collectors, and now are worth hundreds of dollars in many cases. Join me as I take a deep dive into the history of these toys, there approximate value on the secondary markets, and a close up look at all of the sweet details Mattel put into there premium line collection. Enjoy a candid look at my diecast museum, thoughts on unscrupulous selling practices, some foul language, and a chance to weigh in on the content of my future video production! Thanks very much for stopping by, I hope you like my video and consider subscribing to be notified of upcoming stuff!

    What happens is you buy 2 items from the same seller. They charge you 2 individual shipping costs which are high. Then they ship it in the same box

    Yeah, RLC is still like that. BTW, JTC collectables does free shipping if you buy 5 or 6 items (don't quote me on that amount) , plus they're good guys and will respond to your questions right away. A couple items were backordered last time I ordered from them so they totally comped me a Boulevard #25 Moon Eyes VW Drag Bus, and had the missing items shipped to me in just over a week.

    ....I hear ya shipping is so stupid now nothing like it once was .
    Digging though your own stuff is smart ..as I'm kinda a same way ...open a box an I'm ....Whoa totally forgot I own that .almost like seeing it first time again .
    Or not even remember buying at all .
    We all just can't display it all can we.
    Actually took a break from new stuff ..kinda ..unless you find coolness out there .
    So took a break ...still flea market on weekends if weather doesn't ruin it .
    An yeah did the smart thing an jumped into the more expensive hobby an did some LEGO.🙄
    .....I became a bit hooked on mini figures im not a addict i swear .
    It all started by finding a big bunch at the flea market lol.
    Great stuff as always.

    I get where your coming from on postage prices, you have tons of interesting stuff that I would love to see, the HW Classics are my vote, I have a lot of them, but there were so many, not many collectors have them all. I have never joined RLC, but I do keep an eye on what comes out, I have never seen the need to join, as there are not enough cars made by them, that I really want, to justify the joining fee. The two I have bought on the secondary market, are the De Temaso chrome and the Chevy tradesman van. In my opinion the tradesman van, is the best 1:64 van ever made, but the R/C vans with the opening back doors, are also something I collect, if you have any of those, I would like to see them, as I love van. I have two M2 G10 vans on hold for me at the moment, I cant wait to see them in person. I dont buy much either these days, just one online store I use and the toy shops/supermarkets. I do have around 20 other RLC cars, but I bought them a few years ago, when prices and shipping were a lot lower.

      @MrWolfSnack Місяць тому

      @@wtffor I agree with the idea, it will make a good stop-gap until you can figure out a plan for your new carded car videos. Maybe have your guy at Orillia Diecast act as a broker and give him a list of what you're looking for or the links to the eBay auctions and he can order and import them for you and you pay him a commission/finder's fee/shipping/etc. I'm sure he can bundle orders no problem with his day to day store shipments. That issue with eBay is their new payment rules, they no longer allow combined shipping due to them wanting immediate payment on everything to prevent scammers. And a lot of sellers are trying to cheat the new $600 tax rule too.

    I hear you about price gauging and the postage in the US is ridiculous now but its mainly due to Evilbay using their own postage services which won't allow sellers to combine postage was also known as International Shipping Program so that's probably why the diecast business as drop lots in the last 18 month I use to import 300 plus boxes per year but only about 35 in the last year now, that Chevell is better than most STH I reckon but people worry too much about chase cars or STH and anything in between that they can gauge you for lol, love your vids m8!

      I can tell you with 100% definite answer the $600 tax limit is what killed eBay through and through. The fees have killed it off for the past 15 years. But the tax reporting rules have destroyed it.

      I don't bother insuring my collection, I just make sure the house is good and safe and save the money for more cars and not putting my cash into giant corporations pockets. In the event of a disastrous loss of all the items, I would stop collecting and move on with my life.
