exactly. the vintage Matchbox cars i buy are seldom
pristine,
but that doesn't mean they're open game for a crash car
derby. lee

Right. We've bought some vintage cars. We're not
collectors who won't take them out of the boxes, but these
cars do retain value.

i don't buy vintage with boxes. that sorta would preclude
playing with them in my eyes, since they then become
'collectables'.
i also try not to buy toys as investments, as in keeping them
MIB & reselling in a year or several. if i buy a toy, i want
to play with it :) (so we won't talk about the case of Living
Dead dolls, series one & two, in my closet...)
however, i have sold some of my nearly untouched childhood
dolls when i needed money. can't part with my matchboxes
though :)
