Before I deal with the hassle of listing them on eBay, is there anyone out there interested in buying stuff from my collection of Matchbox Superfast models which I’m thinning out? Mostly 1969-77 and mint or near-mint in box, maybe 150 in total. Can’t really remember. I have a few on display but there seems little point in most of them just sitting there in a box, so the proceeds would be better spent on real life cars, brochures, etc.
I’ll try and post pic’s of what I’ve got as soon as I can, though likely to be a bit busy for the next night or two.
Prices will be based on what I bought them for 10-15 years ago plus a bit (I’m not going to be giving them away!) which should still make them reasonable value compared to eBay and toyfairs. Would consider trades for Tomica diecasts, Japanese-market brochures up to 1990 and 1:24 kits.

Sadly no on the RS2000, though I'm shortly going to be putting a load of Escort MkI/II road tests, adverts and articles on eBay so keep an eye out for them! Here are the pic's quickly taken tonight, looks like there are just under 110 in total. Let me know about any specific wants and I can tell you which version it is and take a better picture. (That's just a reflection on the bonnet of the Lotus) I feel a tinge of regret about having to let go of them so I am definitely going to keep some back, but as I said there seems little point in most of them just sitting in a box.

How much for the complete set? Thanks for the interest you and steveb63. Still very much in two minds about this, as it would be nice to think my children will be interested in these one day (not for playing with though, sadly, they get what I had as a kid for that!). Complete set? Hmmm, not sure if I want to sell them that way unless offered A Significant Amount. You can always contact me via PM. I'd much prefer to sell a few small batches or individual models off, leaving me with a still reasonable collection. Here are some more pic's (Majo-Kit filling station and Roadmaker set not included!): I will happily price up and give descriptions for specific requests.

Excellent collection! I have the Mini 'Ha-Ha', used to love that one as a kid, remember some of the others too! I definitely don't need that Mk1 Golf... got any other watercooled VW models?

I definitely don't need that Mk1 Golf... got any other watercooled VW models? Bigger 1980's (?) Matchbox Superkings type Golf Mk1 5dr, in black. 5-spoke wheels. Excellent condition but unboxed.

I'd be interested in a few, dependent on what price they are going for, inc superkings, WHY? Awesome collection BTW.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts
