I see that a lot with non-collectors with any Hot Wheels they sell. I went to a collectible place called Jimmy's USA which is in my link I sent to Mike... and there is a place I wnt to called Frank And Son's a collectible place that has other stuff but when you are there they have so many vendors that sell Hot Wheels and they are marking them up even on Walmart and Target's website they mark Hot Wheels up. The Team Transport that sells for $12.97 is marked way up. I have seen the Team Transport Yellow Moon Eyes sell for ($15.00-$19.00) or more At Frank And Son's... I saw the 55 Chevy Belair Gasser marked up at ($4000.00) I have been seeing what Mike is seeing whether it's a Team Transport set you want or a car where I see it much cheaper and they are willing to pay more money for it. I don't get it... What do they want to be able to say it is worth more when it's not?" If you see my post the Team Transport you see in the link I can't find them anywhere online except eBay and I don't know where these non-collectors and Hot Wheels Collectors are finding them... And I have a hard time getting anything I want at Walmart at my location because the non-collectors and the Hot Wheels collectors are taking them. I like to save time and a trip to Walmart and Target if they don't have it in yet but Walmart is not very helpful. I asked a girl if she can get her scanner to tell me when the date would be they are getting an item in and she has helped me before but said I don't have a scanner when I know she has one... She just didn't feel like telling me or even helping me which is her job to help me... The date always changed because of the virus and if someone orders too much or they put in the wrong letter they have to re-due the order again. Now they are saying the scanner may not give you the correct date of delivery. This one Walmart location I called the woman was very friendly and very helpful said when they would be getting a shipment in and make sure you get there at 7:00 AM or the Hot Wheels will be gone and sold out. She was sure she would get more Hot Wheels on Saturday but when I got there they never got them in. The dump bend had bent cards but I was willing to go through the whole dump bend and found a bunch of cars where the cards were not bent. No one is as thorough as I am. That is why I see so many people in their videos missed a car because they didn't look hard enough. You need to look at every car from top to bottom. You would have never none what I found was there unless you were willing to search the whole dump bend or search the whole wall. That is why I'm trying to go online to get them but I can't find them anywhere but on eBay. I don't want to pay these markup prices... This sucks... Someone needs to put a stop to this... I feel your pain. I can never get Hot Wheels, anyone, as I used too... If a certain Hot Wheels is going for more money than fine but don't mark it up because you are trying to get more for it... to me It is highway robbery.

What really pisses me off are the sellers in Malaysia selling 10- 20 loose supers of the same car knowing the whole time they are probably Mattel employees that are stealing them from the factory. Why can't Mattel do something about it. They're stopping the collectors from having a fair chance at finding them in the wild.

@HotWheelsTV 4 года назад

That's all stolen stuff and is actually worthless! But people keep buying it thinking they are getting something special! Question is... Where on or in their body do you think they're getting the parts out of the factory...? LOL

@rajplayaz16 4 года назад

U are absolutely spot on buddy. I am a Malaysian here and these guys seemed to have their hands on STH scheduled for the next 3 or 4 cases in advance and all of them are loose pieces. I personally feel tht Mattel is staying mum as it creates hype among collectors and they see it as another avenue of publicity. And it’s free publicity.

@hughjass2745 4 года назад

the more they steal the less there is to find out in the wild, which essentially means their value goes up. It's not worthless if people are prepared to pay for stuff not even out yet, some need it before everyone else. So Mattel essentially isnt losing, it just adds to the hot wheels hype on STH's and upcoming releases.

Yep and that's exactly what all the rioters think, that s***'s annoying as hell. I'm just saying. we're all on their level as long as we think we should tell other people what to do, let the The sellers and the buyers learn. That's why we all don't touch hot stoves remember. Now if they come to you looking for advice that's another thing.. I'm probably being a little dramatic here but. I'm so ready to get back to everybody minding their own business. in today's environment if Mike made enough of those videos eBay may go shut that seller's store down and he may be just screwing up on that one item.

Yep-I don’t buy much off ebay but when I do it’s for a reasonable price only. I do take into consideration that I have to pay sales tax (which is expensive in California), the shipping cost, and how much ebay takes from the seller. So if I see a premium Hot Wheels car (Car Culture, Boulevard, etc.) going for around $10-$15 (including shipping)-I understand (a little profit). If I see that same premium car for $20 (including shipping)-forget it-I’d rather spend that on materials for customizing.

So true Mike! It's bad enough that some sellers charge $200 for an RLC car that they purchased (multiple of) for just $30 each during an RLC exclusive sales window (preventing other members from securing one), but then one seller comes along and lists theirs at $1000 since it is has a "low number" sticker! Newsflash, the stickers are not applied in the same order that the cars actually roll off the production line!

I recently bought the '67 Camaro Treasure Hunt from the 2019 Q case on Ebay, and I payed about 30$ for it, including shipping and I thought it was pushing it, but some others are just way too high!

There’s one seller in China selling a Mini GT Lamborghini for 10 bucks, which is good, but he wanted $999.99 for shipping. I called him out on that and he wrote me to tell me that’s what shipping is. Idiot. He has other cars with the same shipping cost.

i spent $7 on ebay for a blue/white 6-wheeled Fast Fortress from 2009. idk if its worth more or less or if it was a good deal.

@BK33REVIEWS Год назад

People's frame of mind these days are to you ebay as a price guide, baseball cards hotwheels etc, so when allot of these crazy sellers have a listing for sumn that's worth 3 dollars and several of them put it for 50 then when someone has it for 25 people automatically jump on it thinking it's a good deal see this everyday

@SuperDjnrg 4 года назад

You are so right, I've been looking for a General Lee and they are expensive.

@nhragal007 3 года назад

AJ always shows me what crazy price cars are being listed for, I always tell him anyone can ask whatever price they want, but it doesn't mean someone is going to buy it. Some of these people have lost their minds with the prices they ask.

@michaeljordan6008 4 года назад

A lot of sellers are looking for someone who is desperate so they get their price, These sellers don’t care if it takes years to sell.

@HotWheelsTV 4 года назад

Yup!

My wife and I just inherited a 30 year nascar collection and I'm now trying to sell on eBay. The tough thing with 1/64 is the shipping cost. I have thousands so pricing them takes forever and the prices are all over the place. But if it's value is around 10 bucks and shipping is $9.45 you need to list it for more and go free shipping or just see what happens. 1/24 is a little easier when the value is 75 bucks or more you can work it into the price and really valuable ones the shipping seems small compared to what it cost but it's hard. I see prices range from 10 bucks to 100 bucks for the same car. Lucky my father in-law put stickers on the valuable ones with a price at the time but it's only a guide.

@HotWheelsTV 2 года назад

Unfortunately the NASCAR die cast market is at the bottom right now and yes... shipping is a killer! Shipping is always the factor when it comes to bidding or buying anything...

@randycox798 3 года назад

I do get the big deal with them out of package. I have Hot Wheels most over 15 years old they did not come out of somebody back yard. Good luck finding any of mine. I spent years finding the cars I have and everyone wants them for nothing. Yet people will try to sell old ones missing wheels that they dug old of the yard asking hundreds of dollars.

@rcbloke778 3 года назад

Great video, what makes me mad over here in the uk is you can buy a car for say £2 but they're wanting £3.99 postage.. ridiculous

@SargeWolf010 4 года назад

I prefer to hunt in the wild over ebay ... which is funny beacuse I found 7 redlines at a flea market for 2$-3$ea ... also the reason people put stuff on ebay for high price$ is ebay takes a chunk of the $ for them selves...

@HotWheelsTV 4 года назад

Yes!! That's the way it should be! Glad you found some good stuff!

@davidbeeson1178 4 года назад

I totally hear you sir, prices did shoot through the roof. Like someone said on your Instagram I think a good part of it is because of the extra $600 a week for unemployment plus the $1,200 stimulus. I am guilty I have overpaid for a few things but they were really hard to find, which I totally understand the less there are the more it's going to cost. But the prices on eBay are unreal.

@robertdavidson1215 4 года назад

Mike how true and I have seen the same . I have looked at the Drag Demons and the price are all over the place, some are good deals and others are well ....

@forthewindiecastracing5964 4 года назад

Bought plenty of hot wheels on eBay. The ridiculous prices on some are always good for a laugh.

@bring_bandaids1565 3 года назад

Love your videos!.. strange question. What is your favorite thing to use to dust your hot wheels rooms? Everything looks so pristine. 😁

@HotWheelsTV 3 года назад

I just dust them with a cotton cloth like a washcloth. if I need to get anything off of them, just get the cloth damp, not wet!

@edwinmedina4338 11 месяцев назад

Its crazy How much some stuff goes for, I saw a collectible for $7.99 at target but people on ebay want $50 to $80 😅. I didn't buy it as I'm hunting and finishing up a 1 of 8 hot wheels collection but it was pretty cool to see that F1 Ferrari model. If they would have had the FXX to go with the F1 I'd of bought them both that day.

This is getting worse and worse with the AcceleRacers series cars, resellers are going stupid crazy with the prices for no reason, literally $1,000+ for $3 retail plastic cars because people think they're all "RARE!"

@HotWheelsTV 2 года назад

Rare does not equate expensive... Someone has to want to pay that price... I've seen pieces that were only 500 made and nobody wants them. 500 is super rare, but if nobody wants it... it has no value..

@TheLucarioProject 2 года назад

The demand is there, these sellers are just taking advantage of that and jacking up all the prices simply because they're part of the series rather than because that specific car is more rare. Unfortunately now more people are probably folding and paying these ridiculous prices possibly due to new eyes in the scene from some of the cars appearing in Infinite Loop. Personally I stay away from ebay so I can't really speak on this first hand but I know this has been the general frustration felt across the Acceleracers community for the past few years.

@Zippy_Zolton 2 года назад

@@TheLucarioProject the Discord community is quite frustrated, but most of the people on the subreddit are very happy to overpay

@NavinJohnson_thethird 3 месяца назад

I won 260+ hot wheels with one bid of $100. No one else bid on it when the auction ended around 4 am. The seller said I stole it. I only bid on it expecting it to go up 3x or more but somehow I won it and shipping was only $36.
