Where were the rest of the cars? There's 12 to an inner and 48 in a case. I know you're not a math teacher but 12 does not go into 40 evenly. ;)
Maybe you were not the first one there. :confused:

48 cars inners, so someone beat you to 8 rides.

You should consider yourself lucky - I've never seen 4 GL's on the pegs, much less a Green Machine!

Guess you were the first legit customer. Too bad they got poached :( (At least you have GL's in your stores) Goose eggs here all around.

I don't think I've ever seen more than 12 hanging around here at one time.
There's about 6 GTOs hanging at one of the K-Marts around here. They've been there quite awhile.

The GL's from the first series that K Mart got are still hanging at the one near me. I think at one time I saw a good 25 there at least.

Saw almost the same thing couple 3 weks ago... the Meijers had got tons in.... must have been 5 or 6 pegs with 5 or 6 cars on each peg...no GM's...

...AND they stayed that way for at least a week or 2.... guess the few people that wanted the regular versions got theirs..obviously, the GM's were gone, maybe even before they hit the pegs...and the casual collectors just saw the same 5 or 6 cars repeated over and over and left them..price?
