General Lee 1/18…. Guide To Buying A Diecast General Lee Replica!!! 

Thank you buddy

Very cool! These older ones are $$$ now so good score my friend! And thanks for watching! I would love to make a custom RC General Lee one day

And I should have said, my friends have scored some good deals in the eBay auctions. I’ve gotta try that! I go by the buy it now etc. I should try to bid on something one day soon. Lol.

I got lucky! It was a 6 day auction and no one countered my offer. I only paid $10 US over the ask! Thanks for the video on the shop at Dixie Mall. I've got to get there.

Wow that’s awesome buddy and yes I highly recommend the guy at Dixie he had everything I wanted hahaha

Yeah! Yeah that’s the BEST version made! Thank you for watching!

Oh buddy there you go!!! Yeah I have the older American muscle chrome chase as well, but the silver screen machines for details oh boy! Yeah I stare at mine all the time hahaha. I even got the littke vintage 3 3/4 Mego bo and Luke figures to display with it! Glad you got one my friend!

Oh yeah, for sure I would totally have one of those.

@@RetroCollectables My stunning ERTL flag box year one General Lee arrived yesterday in truly mint condition in an unopened box, the tape was original and man it's even nicer in person than I thought it would be; the photos don't do it justice. But I have to say that Ebay is one weird place isn't it. I bought my "or best offer" General Lee for $135 after starting out at $180 and today on Ebay the same exact model in the same condition sold for $251, $18 shipping with 45 bids, and all the while right next to it in the listings was the exact same model, same year, same condition listed as "Buy It Now" for $199 with free shipping. It's like people get emotionally invested in bidding on an item and lose themselves, I don't know if it's the process or what, but I know that's not smart. If people buy them for more than I paid I'm happy, if I find someone paid less than me for the same thing I'm pissed, it's just how I'm built as a collector searching for a bargain. The only thing better for a collector than having a great model is how much you got it for. A good deal satisfies the soul.

Nope I agree! It’s the best

Me too my friend I’m hooked hahaha love this stuff!

​@@RetroCollectables I just bought an ERTL General Lee for 160.00 I been looking forever for one at a decent price

Yeah the OG isn’t as detailed as our new ones but it’s still the OG. You’ll get one

​@@RetroCollectablesI just got one for 160.00

Oh awesome we have some of those small weathered ones here. The barn find! I’ll show one next video we do for you!

That would be awesome. E. Really appriciate​@@RetroCollectables

Very cool! And the cooters ones are just as nice as the silver screen, made by the same people! And can’t beat the 1/64 that’s the OG! I had that as a boy too!

Wow, thank you so much my friend for that compliment. Yeah, I always stressed out about COAs and even COA can be dodgy themselves.! And wow I just googled that ramen racer! Wow is that diecast! Dammit, it’s sold out. I wish I knew about it.! What scale is it? Is it diecast? I’ll be looking into that thank you!

The one with the car if the box and everything is in good shape, probably around $300 cad. Glenn has that one somewhere. It has a little bit extra value than the rest of them because it comes with the smaller version.

For real??? That sucks! I didn’t know there was issues with those

None of the doors on the silver screen should open. I have heard on earlier releases that they used less glue and some people pried the doors open, but they shouldn’t have been able to open. The cooters place one by auto world I’m not sure if the doors open. Mine the box says opening doors but they do not. They tried to make it like the show with the doors welded shut. Check this one out. Made by Autoworld same quality. I’m not sure about the doors but it’s a good one. Only thing is you put on the decals which are included. But it’s still in retail at cooters! cootersplace.com/cooters-garage-1969-dodge-charger-with-general-lee-decal-kit/

@@RetroCollectables I don’t like the cooters release. I’ve seen them side by side with the autoworld and it looks like a cheap chinese knockoff. I guess the ones on ebay some of the sellers have pried the doors open it’s a shame hard to shop online i wish there was places in ontario i could shop for stuff like this.

Wow yeah mine doesn’t have paint rash. and I would shop around my friend. If you are in Canada like me. I wouldn’t pay over $300 for one (I got Glenns mint and sealed for $250 for him). If your in Canada I would avoid eBay, and watch for one on marketplace and Kijiji. Also, you can still order this one. Same quality. You just have to put the decals on, which are included

@@RetroCollectables ya man even market place guys are trying to sell them for 500-700 dollars this is nuts ebay is another big joke

@@RetroCollectables the only thing i don’t like about cooters is it has the fender light side markers and the emblem “charger” on the sides.

@@RetroCollectables yes i’m in canada another issue i’m facing no one wants to ship these from market place or kijji. How long ago did you get glens ?

Yus!!
