Ghosthunter.
im only semi organized...i just added...would be going by model number be better hmmm decisions decisions
Yes quite possibly as most of us use the model number first to identify what we want to talk about and to find models in the casting shows. If you only had one of each model, then one case would have a sticky label with #1 to #12 (or however many each one holds), something to experiment with I guess.
well i decided to keep with the theme...farm stuff with farm stuff...cars with cars...construction with construction...like that...im finished for now...filled up 4 and a half of the cases...still have more in another box but those are the beaten of the beat...i left some go in the cases...like #30 cranes with chewed hooks...models with missing wheels...but some that have massive amounts of a kids paint or broken stuff like wind screens...and other parts of the model broken off i left in the beater box

got a flyer type thing in the mail today...this store carries those thread spool holders which are perfect for storing our matchbox models..and other brands
i remember i posted about them and some people didnt know of them...if you do or dont...look into them they are having a sale
Dan,
Thanks for the tip. Made it to the store today and scored 4 cases (all they had) on last day of sale!! Love em.................
nice Bill glad you got some! did you get 40% off? i got that and a coupon for 20% off total purchase
before i left for the store...i calculated how many 100 dollars could buy...but once i got there and saw how many they had...something like 40...once i got ten i said this is all i can carry to the checkout and didnt worry about anymore

Didn't have the 20% off coupon -- should have checked on that before we went !
Still a good value at $8.99 each.
Thanks again for the tip!
