Looking For A Buyer Of Pocket Cars?If you're interested in selling whatever Pocket Cars you have, you need to do a few things.
First, create a detailed list of what you're selling. The details should include vehicle description (see Checklist page for examples) and condition (packaged or loose, mint or not).
Second, take pictures or make scans of all the vehicles that can be sent by email. Most people like to see what's up for sale.
Third, have reasonable prices (both for the vehicles and for shipping & handling) and be willing to negotiate. No one is going to buy a Pocket Cars vehicle if initial price is over $ 15 regardless of the condition, demand, or rarity (at least they don't at any of the online auction sites or toy shows I've been to). Also, be careful on what you ask for S&H -- most of us have mailed items and we know what the postage can be; and don't be greedy on the handling aspect. Just remember what you think when you see S&H posted at $ 4 or more for an item that costs less than $ 2 in postage. (My apologies for the 'ranting,' but this is a rather 'sore' point for me since I only charge actual postage and no handling.)
Fourth, contact the person below using the email address provided.

If you're wondering why I didn't list myself, the reason is simple.
Though I am looking to get a 'complete' collection of Pocket Cars, I only would like those blisterpacked models whose main entry's either have no description or have "(pic)". I'm not 'into' variations.
This makes me, I think, somewhat 'selective' as to what I buy. Also, I live on a limited income; this means that I have to prioritize as to when I buy and how much I can spend.
