    Okay...so as I grew up, I collected 1/18 die cast cars. I have two display cases for them, (which I purchased from exoticar.com) they currently hang on each side on my bed in my bedroom. The case can be found here.

    http://www.exoticar.com/pages/showroom_2.cfm?cat=Model%20Cases%20%26%20Accessories

    The question is...I no longer have room for them, or the cars they contain. Any ideas what to do with them...without splitting it all up on eBay? I have one case full of Ferrari models, and the other is porsche, bmw, lamborghini, Mercedes, etc. Anyone interested in purchasing them? The cars never got touched or played with...as they sat in their respective Plexiglas homes. What do you guys think?

    I will post pictures....I have to get someone at home to take them, and send them to me. The collection is certainly worth a bit of money. I dont know if I had a specific number in mind.

    Pictures should be up in a few hours.

    I would first try to sell them to us. Then put them on Ebay. I would try to sell them individually also not as a group. I think you could sell them quicker this way. And hurry up and post the pic's, I might want to buy 1 or 2 of them.

    Well, just as soon as I get them emailed to me, I will post them! Sorry about the delay. I would need to sell the cases too.


    BY THE WAY the cases are the fourth down the website....they are called
    1/18th Scale 12-Car Plexiglass Display Case

    I'd like to have the website if you'll share it with me.


    I have room for 1 more car and I just pre-ordered about 3 more.

    LOL nice

    Those plexiglass cases are a lot more expensive that I would have thought. I don't collect any 1:18, but in the future I'm planning on getting something to better display my 1:64 Ferrari's.

    I have no affiliation with them. Found their ad online, I have bought 8 cases from them. Quick shipping, great prices and beautiful cases...
