    I sell all my errors but I usually sell the ones that have a completely different casting on card. They normally sell for about $10 the ones I've sold. Great video though, how about a video on the valuation of customs carded or not and custom carded.

    I have a Door Slammers BMW 2002 that I took off the peg the moment that the employee at the shop was hanging it, because it was blistered facing left! Is it worth anything?

One of the cars is missing it's front axle. It has its rear one which I think is strange. Out of curiosity, what would you put it at? If you need more details about it, I'll gladly supply it.

    Enjoyed the review. Collectors will put crazy value on the oddest item. The further you go down the rabbit hole the odder it gets, much narrower of a collecting base however. This narrow base is what drives those giant price tags. I personally am not a collector of errors, but glad people to collect them.

    We were left with a few hundred hot Wheels errors by a family member. About 40% of them look suspicious, but there are some obvious errors that are clearly legitimate - missed rivets, casting errors, etc. While we have sold a few of the more popular models on eBay, most of them are still sitting in a box after being listed for over a year at under $20. Auctioning them ended up with some .99¢ sales that cost us money (thanks to eBay fees).
    I have recently considered making a separate eBay store just for errors, but the possibility of having to deal with all types of returns has kept me from doing it (as well as the time cost of listing on eBay). Anybody out there have any constructive suggestions?
    By the way, the Silverado error was automatically suspicious with that super glued blister, even on video.

    What about a mold mistake on a car. I didn't realize it til today. I had the lil thing for almost 2 months. Originally started to get some cars for a lil girl that loves lil cars. She didn't get a chance to play with this one & I noticed a mold mistake. When I bought it, I thought it was a wrecker racer truck. Then I started to collect more n more cars. 20 cars in almost 2 months I have over 480 sum cars now. I bought out almost every retail store from Walmart to Dollar General n such. Mall has rare ones, but not like this car or tiny truck. I took close notice when newer truck had a spoiler in the back & the few weeks older one the mold didn't set all the way. So wonder how much it it's worth & I didn't know value til now. Last I bought Hot Wheels was in the 80's & now I'm 47. I'm fresh in collecting & value of defective cars I don't know who to contact without paying a fee if it's not worth & I'm out of money. Anyway that's all I had to say
