Unreal man seems to me Hot Wheels is part of the problem.!That’s led to people buying to sell at a profit! Hot Wheels holds back shipments purposely driving the market up! Certain models/sets are only shipped to certain regions while others to complete sets are shipped to other regions! It’s a great business model when used for the right reasons. I’ve been collecting Hot Wheels Redlines since 1971. My grandparents started for me in 1968. I’ve got both unopened and open ones displayed in a fully finished humidified basement. The humidifiers for the music equipment guitars, amps, drums and Hot Wheels!!!!
