    Love buying and collecting Matchbox and Hot Wheels. I met you in the late 80s. I always appreciated your honest grading system. I only bought Mint in the box or blister. Take care Brother.

      Thanks! Wow the late 80's. That was so long ago. We are gradually getting older and older! But the hobby of collecting Matchbox and Hot Wheels just keeps growing and its still fun.

    Congrats to you Dave and the buyer. An amazing collection. I like the yellowing on the sides of the boat as it makes it appear more realistic.

    I have repurchased many of the Matchboxes I used to have in the 60s. They cost much more than the 55 cents that I used to pay for them then.

    just a heads up, can u wrap them with thin tissues when u put em inside the box? it reduces the chance of it being scratched, i do this with my vintage tomica cars

      That is a 1968 Store Display. I watched eBay for years wanting one that was new in the original box. Heavy competition bidding on that so I ended up paying $1,200 for it.

      The cars always included matching boxes. A child would have refused a car with a wrong picture on the box. Imagine a fire engine in a taxi box! No way!

    I have been in the hobby since childhood, and for thirty-eight years, had scouted out every Regular Wheels model that appeals to me, whether before my time or not. I have one kept from when I was eight, the #74 Mobile Refreshment Canteen. It has been with me longer than any, and it got blessed just three years ago with an original box it had from new; And the list goes on and on. I have all I could ever want, and now, for the more prized ones in my treasure chest, I'm trying to get original boxes, which are extremely scarce, and often only up for auction. Women do not generally share our passion/hobby for these diecast cars; I've had a few scoffing detractor women knocking me over what I love. My late wife, rest her soul, was an exceptionally good sport and shared the joy with me, though, to her dying day. Indeed remind your wife, Janet, that there are more than one Matchbox Mavens out there. And it's not unlike a for real antique car 🚗 hobby.

    • @toycarcollector
      @toycarcollector  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rarely are boxes for sale anywhere. If you desire a set of cars with boxes you need to bid or buy cars with boxes. The cars are a dime a dozen but the boxes are rare as hens teeth. Or just order some reproductions. Best wishes.

    Matchbox really were at the top of their game in the sixties.
    BTW, I had the Dodge cattle truck, and it had one or maybe two brown plastic cattle. Or is my memory "Dodgy"?
    Very enjoyable video.
    Edit. OK I made the above comment before 19.50.
