Matchbox Cars

It's funny, I haven't looked at these little die-cast cars since I was a kid but I find that I look for them now when I'm in a store from time to time. It all started because I bought some batteries and the pack came with a car inside, now it looks like I might start purchasing these things once in a while. I wonder why :?

My brother and I had a ton when we were a kid but gave them all away. Some of them would be worth a few bux now I bet. Anyway, they still seem to be the best die-cast miniatures you can buy.

I have 3 brothers so you can imagine all the machbox cars we had in the house. they used to have cases upon cases full of them.

If I had a son, he'd have a collection of the nicest little cars out there. I have girls so the collections are porcelin dolls, collectable barbies and anne geddes dolls.

there are some really cool looking machbox cars out there!

I have a REALLY good friend, a guy I used to work with, who makes a little money selling those on ebay......in between working on ships. I'd be glad to hook you up and get you a great deal on a great collectible set. He wouldn't rip you off or anything. I think he's a member of the hobby forum....but he never posts.

I still have tons of those cars.

Apparently, they are a pretty big sell item on ebay.

So long as there in mint condition then they sell allright. If there still in the packaging then there worth a small fortune.
