What are you trying to get? A collection of die-cast cars or are you looking to make a killing down the road?

I for one did the exact thing most young new collectors are doing, going out and trying to find those "rare" models and scoop them all up for my second retirement income.

Trust me gentleman and ladies if that be the case, IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

If you really love these little cars and enjoy collecting them as a hobby, I suggest that you continue looking for the one that you like and not the ones that other people say are going to be your hedge again inflation.

BUY THE ONES YOU LIKE AND DON'T BUY THEM IF YOU THINK THAT ARE GOING TO ENCREASE IN VALUE...IT AIN"T GONNA HAPPEN, olesarge90/Gill

You mean that I'm NOT going to be able to retire on all the cars that I got stashed away in my basement, attic, garage and a couple of closets? Somebody lied to me! LOL! :tongue:
