The older releases are getting tougher to find.

LOL! I had that very auction in my watching list untill it outpaced my willingness! The most I have done on a Kyosho is around $35 delivered. Still the most I have ever paid for a single 1:64 casting.

When I begin to collect kyosho (lambos series 1) I saw an urraco begins the bid in 10$ and ends in 350$,
Personally I doubt the truthfulness of the bidder and of course I lost the bid and several days later I got mine for 15$.

The Most I paid for Kyosho

33.00 British pound for the secret car Porsche GT3 RS
31.00 British pound for the Alpha Romeo 8C

but I saw only one secret car to date on ebay.

What amazes me is that some sellers offer the whole series that were sold 2 or more years ago in shops. For example, not long ago, someone was selling all cars from Porsche series 1. I wonder where do they find all these, do they store lots of them in some basement and sell a series from time to time... :confused: I always thought they try to sell the new series as soon as possible, but I guess they are speculating a bit and saving some for later.

I paid a hefty sum for a 330 p4 spider almost 3 years ago.

I only have one more chase car to complete my collection, it used to be two but yosho reissued the 360 spider.

There have been several, in fact, 1 actually closed with no bidders at all -14.99 I think.

I wanted to punch my face in because I forgot to bid on it.

I got one of them for about the same amount you paid for.

To the best of my knowledge, Dydo is a brand of coffee in Japan.
This 360 spider came with the diorama during the 1st promo/vol 1 dydo-kyosho Ferrari.

The dio looks nice but the 360 spider from series 5 looks a lot better.

I understand I don't like the chrome wheels of the collection 1-2
details are not as beautiful as the other version


For these reason I pass 2x on red enzo collection 1.

That's true.

I don't want to think of myself as a completist, but sometimes i feel that my collection is incomplete without this one; despite its appearance.

NO. I was offered, but I knew I was too unexperienced a driver. This was 20 years ago of course. Now I can handle that type of machinery all day long. If I had the opportunity of course. :cool:

I don't consider myself to be a completest, but rather just want everything;)

I don't have Ferrari's from 1 or 2 but have all the cars from 3,4,5. As a collector with Muky and Buby being prized pieces in my collection I am not a stickler on authenticity but do appreciate it.

Re: The original post on this thread from "troopeur"...

Although I was not the direct buyer of this Ferrari 330 P4, the buyer, (a good friend) did indeed buy it for me. (I do not have a Paypal account)

I feel very bad if I bid too much on this item and upset some of you.

I feel very bad if I outbid you on this item, (I wish there was a way to tell if someone here is bidding on an item - I would then back off.

PLEASE accept my apologies if that is the case.

I'm relatively new at collecting the Kyosho brand of diecast.
I saw this item and I fell in love with it.
I heard previously that a 330 P4 sold for over a hundred dollars but since
then I've found out it was probably the VHTF Dydo release.
(Ignorance is expensive at times.)

I love this forum, you people have giving me a breath of fresh air in the diecast collecting world. I have 25 or so Kyosho pieces and I feel like a little pup compared to some of you big pups with the amazing collections.
I luv and enjoy your pics very much.

Sorry if I disapointed some of you folks :(

Never feel bad! We all have access to the same cars, it's just a matter of what were willing to spend. Looks like you landed a great piece!

its funny how the bidding goes. i just bid and won a ferrari/lancia D50. i won it for about $9.00 after losing last week on two sales of the same type car that topped at $30 and $36 if i remember correctly. guess it depends on whos bidding and how bad they want it that day. i also seem to be more lucky with certain sellers. go figure. mj
the D50 is one of my favorite cars of all time!!

:) I was in on that D50, but was away from the PC at the time auction closed. I need to get more disciplined about putting in my bids in ahead of time.
Congrats on a great buy! :thumbsup:

Good Luck to everyone going after the Ferrari 330 Spyder.

It would be a nice one to own but it would need race livery
to find a home in my collection.

Not picky, I just know what I want - I think :lol:

Red Ferrari Dino 308 GT4 from the latest Ferrari series reach higher prices on ebay, higher than most of the other models. Does anyone have any idea why? Is it so desirable or is it just a hype at the beginning?

troopeur
05-21-2009, 02:55 PM
Yeah I saw that me too , most expensive than the FXX evolution ???

the f430 too is higher the reason is certailny the metalic red paint.

Kotetsu
05-21-2009, 11:25 PM
Must be the hype for being a new release. Maybe that buyer is missing that one car out of the whole set and I could easily see why he'll pay so much to complete the set.

I wonder what happened to the display case

Kotetsu
05-23-2009, 03:38 AM
Maybe the seller is using it for display... but then is willing to let go of the car?

he sell the display on another auction.
100$ for the spyder rest 2 days...
