View Full Version : Givin Up..
streaker 07-15-2005, 08:03 AM I have Offically given up looking for cars in the stores. There aren't any around here and the WL's are scarfed up by scalpers. from now on i will buy my cars from rob and save the gas and the time. i went to WM this am and found absoultely zip. i asked the stocking person if they had cars to put out and was told nope.
:cry:
cherrokee 07-15-2005, 08:48 AM same in the little town i live in 1 walmart no new cars, tons of import cars and clue ,and poker cars are the only new ones warming the pegs .i get mine from rob too .
about 50 miles south of where i live there are 3 or 4 walmarts and t.r.u. stores .you can find the odd new car .but not worth the drive to find something you know the scalpers always get .if i see a series i like and know there are 3 or 4 cars in a case that i want i just by the case or half case however they are packed .rob allways knows what i mean, like the classic plastic set ,i order it and he sends me the set ,the extra cars no problem getting rid of them .a wife and 6 grandchildren that collect little cars ,im luckey if i get to keep the ones i want l.o.l
StreetFreak 07-15-2005, 10:16 AM Same here!
Everything is gone before it even hits the floor (toy department workers and scalpers). Plus I don't think as much JL stuff gets ordered anymore in comparison to the other diecast types.:confused:
Atencio 07-15-2005, 10:18 AM I came to the same conclusion a few months ago. I got tired of waiting for series to show up only to see them never appear.

olesarge90 07-15-2005, 12:05 PM Look in his profile and send him and email. Rick will help you out just like the other o.l.d.s.:
tinywheels is a great one. I use him exclusively for my JLs and then I use KEYSTONE from MCCH for my Matchbox NSF Cars. Just my opinion too!

Aww, that makes my day. LOL :lol:
NovaSS 07-15-2005, 01:08 PM O.L.D.'s are the way to go. Especially now that we've heard that prodution numbers will be lower. I can't imagine finding less than zero in the stores. Is there such a number? That would be like walking in the store with cars in your hands and leaving empty handed. :tongue:
StreetFreak 07-15-2005, 01:30 PM Yeah but you have another outlet to get your JL fix. ;) :wave:
