[QUOTE="99MustangGTman, post: 16514833, member: 55199"] I am not sure why the seller didn't put down a $100 bid with a $150 BIN or $175 BIN OBO. Just speaking logistically since he has 24 different 1:18 scale Shelby Collectibles models with 7 of them being 2013 GT500s. If he has 24 Shelby Collectible models I know he paid way less than $100 per car and is looking to probably get at least double, if not triple his profit, but it's supply and demand and it's a seller's market right now unfortunately. Historically they've sold for around $120 BIN since they've been out of print. Before the new round of Boss 302s came out, they were selling for about $100-$120. I actually almost bought one, but i'm glad I lost the bid at the last moment and then found out a new batch was made that lowered the price in half. Unfortunately with the 2013 GT500s they're out of print, so the price isn't going to be coming down with a new batch release. You'll just have to get lucky on eBay or be willing to pay a lot. The only possibility is that a retailer receives a leftover stash from another retailer looking to move stock via a distributor, which was what I was hoping was going to happen, but I don't think that will come to fruition like I thought. These are models for owners of the actual car or just a Mustang 1:18 diecast collector who wants this particular model in his collection. The 1:18 diecast models have shot up in price over the past few months. I used to buy a slew of 1999 Maisto 1:18 Mustang models for about $15-$25 in any condition, do a few simple mods or re-paint them and then resell them and double my profit margin or more, but it's not profitable on the 2013 GT500 models if you're looking to flip them. I never understood why another diecast company didn't make the 2013/2014 GT500s since at the time is was the most powerful Mustang ever built. [/QUOTE]
