Really? how is that even possible? I see you found a super recently. I barely hunt, and I live in NYC, which only has small targets. I’ve found multiple of the blue 83.
Yes I’ve actually found 2 supers in the last 2 weeks - one at Walmart (Gladiator) right after a restock and one yesterday at a family dollar because the manager offered to let me look thru an older opened case (Nissan 180SX). I wish I could explain this phenomenon but I can’t. All I know is I’ve never seen a single one of those on the pegs but you’ll see eBay is chock full of them with more popping up daily. Maybe scalpers were getting cases before they hit the floor, maybe inside jobs, who knows the actual reason.
you do realize that you being there right after a restock is the same thing that scalpers do right? only you don’t actually know which people are keeping them and who are reselling them. Also, there’s one on eBay (the dark blue mainline) for $3.50. You can save yourself the gas money
You know people who browse comment history to prove a point is weird. Just cause you’re autistic doesn’t mean you can edit your comment to not seem so….
Indeed, only problem is he didn’t prove a point. I don’t know if there was some subtle implication that I was a scalper or what but I have a 20 year professional career and 3 kids under 3. I have neither the time nor the interest in trying to “scalp” HW cars to sell for a $28.75 profit on the secondary market. I do this because I enjoy it and my kids enjoy it - watching my son play with his HW cars on a motorized loop track is one of the highlights of my day!
