It happens all the time lately!

With the exception of very VERY few Super Treasure Hunts, if you're paying for them on the secondary market, you're paying too much. If you're buying them in hopes of them going up in value, you're going to be disappointed. They ALWAYS go down (with a few exceptions like I said). If I don't find them in the wild, I leave them alone. I'll never pay $40+ for a $1 bathtub toy that they make 200k+ of and are NOT rare whatsoever (which is why they always go down to $10-$20 within 5 to 10 years).

Yeah, I sometimes find them separated in bins of cars at Walmart and such. I usually try to find the card, car, and blister and give them to customer service to tape back together to sell.

You should definitely inspect it immediately, as soon as you receive it. Waiting 3 or 4 weeks, then finding issues, there is no way to determine what actually happened. Also why would you display it with tape on the blister for 3 or 4 weeks?

It’s rare, but I have had this happen. I had 2 RLC cars last year that did the same thing. The pink 66 Chevy Nova was pretty much already open by the time it got to me from PA. Hope you and the seller can come to some arrangement. Stay cool Phil

My black membership Camaro and pink party Camaro both basically fell off. The premium lines had a similar problem where they didn't use enough heat to seal the blister. That was 2015 and 2016 mainly

I'm not sure if the fact that the pack was open when you got it will really hurt the value of the car, on occasion, some single Hot Wheels pack can come off easily in stores. But the seller could have told you it was already open, not mint in package per say.

Personally, I think it's one of those loose TH's that get stolen from the factory in Malaysia. Seller probably got a hold of one and a store-bought one, and exchanged them. Either way, the seller should include that fact that's it open and has a small defect in the paint. I would definitely complain to Ebay and get my money back.

Dealer was deceptive and could’ve mentioned the blister was loose, thereby justifying the drop in price. However, what did the seller really gain by doing this? All I can think of is that he also makes KZread videos and likes to put opened samples in his videos. Then puts them back and resells them if he finds another sealed one.

Wow that's some shaddy business! Card was tampered with for sure,I would put his information on blast for sure! 👎👎🤬😡 great channel btw! 👍😁💯

just re-glue the blister to the card . I have seen a lot of this when they are dumped into the bins at grocery stores

I wonder why they would choose the top edge of the blister to use acetone. The risk of bending the card is greater than if doing the sides and bottom edge. The other issue is that you can see the card underneath the blister has basically no glue on it. If they did the acetone trick, some glue markings / imprinting would be on the blister side and some on the card side. Paint damage is common with hot wheels, I've gotten a few with bubbles or other issues. Brand new cards from the case have scuff marks from rubbing up against the blister pack. It is completely possible the car you have was sold through factory connections and was swapped out for a nicer version in a package. Hope the seller gets back to you soon.

sad to hear. had the exact same thing on the roof, but on a card which wasnt already opened though. still had to crack this one open because the other one is factory sealed😅

Using acatone does leave marks on the card if you look carefully,,I use acetone to remove my cars too keep the card in good condition an I'm yet to see a card that doesn't have some staining. So good chance it did just come off iv seen plenty of blisters come loose from being poorly glued.

I have had cards and the blisters separate while just sitting in a box. I think it was when the power went out during one summer and the temp went over 90 degrees for an entire day and then went back to 73 after the power came back.

Had hundreds of supers. Quality control on these are the same as all hot wheels. I’ve had many imperfections in paint on these.

In my opinion,you didn't get scammed since you said it yourself "it was a very good price"...you can't get nice things at smaller prices :(( I don't think it's that big of a deal,I mean a bit of paint chip

Sorry, looking at it’s original prices and even with “so called little different features” shouldn’t reach that prices tag. The one who destroys all the price is scalpers and mafia. Some people are dumb enough to accept the price tag and keep this thing existing.

‘Collect it so I could have a brand new in package one and the value would go up…’ you might not be in this for the right reasons… But yes if it was sold as being sealed then you were sold something that was misrepresented. Proving who did it though is next to impossible.

They just kept the card, played with the car, and sold it after the fact. Common play here, and more the reason to go hunt

Most of the hot wheels already came with damages from faktory i have that very often. Maybe you can put the good car in the box and glue it back together

I actually found this Lambo STH in a Dollar General when it first came out. I love this casting and it’s one of my favorite cars in my collection. I hope you didn’t get scammed. It’s ashamed people do this kind of thing to others. Thanks for your video I always love watching your content

I'm not a collector, I freely admit. I'm just a guy who worked retail and stocked these. I've actually seen packaging for Hot Wheels and even a couple of other products separate *in the shipping totes, brand-spanking-new*, without any visible damage to the card or plastic blister, seemingly lacking full adhesive to the blister containing the product. At one point, I even pulled a pack out of a tote with the blister looking as though it had never been adhered to the card, with the card, blister and car all independently loose in the tote--miraculously, all without ANY signs of damage (it helped that the Hot Wheels in question was a transparent plastic model with no paint to damage, heh). I'm not saying that's what happened here, but it's *possible*. My *guess* is that you're RIGHT about your hypothesis in this case, but I figured I'd speak up regarding the age of a product potentially having nothing to do with how well adhered it is from the factory. Quality control issues happen.

that kinda sucks, man. 🥺

I have had this happen on several cars during the 50th anniversary period. In 2018 I bought cases upon cases and I will tell you that HW was rushing the factories and so I feel what you got was a poor factory sealed car and you did not get scammed. I have several of the 2018 "Race Series" mainlines that have the blisters coming loose. I bet that along with the shipping process created the issue. Also I have 4 of those Aventador STH and none of them have perfect paint....2018 was a very bad year for HotWheels quality control. They just produced too much too fast to capitalize on the 50th.

It definitely looked opened but i have had cars from the past few years come open like that. Factory defect in glue or how its put on

I have had bubbles come off cards before, RLC and mail in both, however I have seen people do stuff like that...

I've found STH & mainlines on peg & in boxes....& after a while the blister DID come loose....just poorly glued on from factory.... So it MIGHT have come loose that the seller knew about it......OR it came loose in transit of many sitting somewhere to humid for a day or so & it came apart.....

Many factors with the blister coming off the card such as handling during shipping or temperature swings from being on the airplane. The paint defect sucks but have you seen all the pictures of the card and car before buying it? If the pictures already has a paint chip then you know what you are getting into especially for the price you were paying.

I have 2017 Mainlane Renault Sport R.S. 01 error that the blister has come apart just like that, without touching it, first time I've seen it 🤔

the only thing i can say for the devils advocate side is that here in Arizona if you leave these out in the heat of say a garage/man cave the glue releases a LOT faster than if kept inside. Its something we have to watch for when buying from other collectors locally. Loads of collections are stored in hot storage areas. So maybe it was intentional to screw you over, maybe it wasnt.. But the seller should have checked before sending it. Often a bit of Acetone on the glue of the plastic side will reactivate it and it will stick again.

That’s forgery. It’s ILLEGAL if you do it with collectibles (such as the car) and antiques!

Mention the seller in description so that we can avoid the particular seller because if it was an honest mistake like sometimes sellers are not aware what they got but in such case they will replied but since there is no reply you can assume that they were aware about the card condition and scammed you the price for carded car for an uncarded or recarded car.

Quite a few of the premium retro entertainment Hot Wheels had their blister packs come unglued just like that.

At least u got the real deal. I got scammed when I bought 2 STHs from Ebay,07, 69 Pontiac GTO & 07, Custom 69 Chevy. Both were Customised. Very disappointing. Have all from 2018 on card but the Datsun Ute.

Hey from 1 hot wheel collector to another that has happed to me a couple of times (being scammed) but I wish u look getting your money back and continue your collection I love your videos keep it up 👍🏼

Not really a scam per say, more of misadvertising as it is not new in box. But I understand. Might also have explained the comparatively low price.

I personally dont think this was a scam. I've seen plenty of cars where the blister and card come apart with no tampering. You can see that there is some ripping of the card that left a bit of cardboard on either side of the blister. If this was tampered you'd think the scammer would be more careful to avoid that. This could have been the result if weak glue and rough shipping. On the other hand, have you sniffed it? If it smells like acetone or scented nail polish remover then that is a sure sign of tampering.

I would also be disappointed, what probably happened is they wanted to enjoy the Super out of the blister, they did and at after that decided to resell it ... obviously out of the packaging would not worth so much so they sold it as sealed ...

That's common online. Scammers galore.

Have to check it out when you get it don't just put on a shelf! Especially hot wheels lots of bad sellers out there had that happen to me had to go though ebay but got my money back! Because I checked it out

I've had hot wheels car open by itself just like that over time, I had it hanging from my bookshelf and it just fell out of the packaging

I ebay usually sides with me even if the item seems to have just been lost in post.

That’s a hotwheel car I found at the store and bought it due to my love for Lamborghini and now I made MONEYYYYYYY!!!

I'm just imaging a forger in some dingy basement wearing a visor with a jewelers loupe in his eye carefully applying acetone to the card with an eye dropper.

I'm not defending the seller, although if it was in that condition, it should've absolutely been disclosed. HOWEVER, not all cars are free from defects, this means supers can have them as well. I've gotten a couple sealed supers right off the pegs that have had fingerprints on the windows, meaning they've been handled before. I've seen many cars that have paint chips just sitting on the pegs, still fully sealed. I've seen bubbles that have very poor adhesion to the card, to where the bubble is barely hanging on, and considering it has a couple rips, it was either poorly done or it was like that from the factory. All of those things are excusable. If you got that for less than half the normal going price, something had to be wrong and you looked over it. Go reread the listing if you can.

That's hilarious, karma for more money than braincells when spending over 40 bucks for a dollar car lmao

Dude, I don't think you have the hotwheels boulevard Lyman hypersport with rubber tyres and I have it 😉 road to 500k baby!!!

That's strange. Why open it, put wear and tear on it while keeping the card and plastic mint then slip it back into the package and advertise it as new? Possibly they had more than one with one opened and played with and decided to just open the new one and swap in the worn one to try to get the value of a new one in a deceptive attempt to screw someone over or just doing it to deliberately be mean, knowing that doing so would certainly upset whoever bought it, not caring who gets hurt because maybe they just like to hurt people and the knowledge that they have is enough for them to get a kick out of it. Kind of similar to people who do horrible things to others because they like hearing it being talked about by other people like a sick, twisted form of attention that makes them feel special or powerful because of an inferiority complex or just being vindictive.

Its happened to me once and thats after it was sitting for months then i picked it up to rearange stuff and it littteraly came off like yours but without a mark

Urgent! : I own a very rare collectable hot wheels car, over the years the card has decayed with the glue, a small hole between the card and plastic has formed : IS THERE A WAY To recover the car's value and get it both repaired, and graded?

I remember watching that video,I was new to hot wheels I would have not known

That happened to me ! Its not a scam it happens in shipping. My plymouth superbird came like that. Plus some cars from my wall never opened just came open because its quite hot here.

Hey well now you have one to race to lol

that's why I dont buy on Ebay or what ever only shop on whatnot

You should let the seller know you will list his name to KZread if he doesn’t reply first of all and make it right. They wanted to ply with the car and then resell. Thing is for the paint defect, have quite a few supers myself, and all aren’t created equal so that defect may be from factory and actually could send the value up sometime, but that too if it were properly sealed.

Wow, send that paint chipped to me I'll happily keep it in my collection, 😍😍😍

Because the seller is not contacting you does make him look guilty. What did the box look like? Did it look like it was opened ? It's a slim chance but maybe someone opened it but had one so they thought hey swap it and have a nicer loose version. It's doubtful but I am getting less and less surprised these days.

I do that to my Supers too. Then I can put them back, and take them out, whenever I want!

It was opened already. I have cars that are 7 or 8 years old and none have just came open.

and i know how it feels when i think that my cars are not worth alot

Mr. Phil... well the Lamborghini Aventador looks legit but by the looks of it you got scammed because of defective packaging... or maybe that seller just open up and either play it with the kids or himself and put it back in place. Either way it's better that for all collectors out there need to be careful when it comes on online shopping.😓

I've had several cars fall right off the card and Yes one was a Super Lambo I believe they had more trouble with their glue

Ok first let me say that I'm not sticking up for the seller but I have been collecting since 1995. In 2018 Mattel started trying out new "glue" on the blisters but there was an issue with it because the blisters were popping off in places. A good example is the Stars and Stripes series. If anyone remembers seeing them in stores then they saw that the blisters were taped to the cards. I questioned the Walmart manager about this and he told me that they were showing up like that. I didn't believe him but when I went to another store it was the same thing. Eventually Mattel stopped using that glue but obviously a lot of cars went out with that defective glue. I do know about the nail polish trick but it doesn't appear to have been used on yours because it does leave an impression mark. The defect on the roof...common factory defect. I have tons of cars with paint defects. If the seller DOESN'T reply then yes file a claim because that would be shady to not respond. Oh and by the way the blue painters tape doesn't guarantee to keep the blister from breaking. The car is still hitting the inside of the blister and can cause the blister to crack.

Stick the better one in package and use some super glue to put it back together

I hope you left appropriate feedback

If it was really a scam... Im wondering why didnt he glue it back together... ? Wouldve been an easy fix any you would have never noticed it.

Did the glue just come off the package?

you can remove the blue tape and put it back in protecto packet

You know the saying phil pay peanuts u get monkey's!!!

Sorry to see this happen to one of my favorite KZreadrs. I must ask though, did you ask about card condition or other disclaimers? I always ask in trades (i don't buy Sups or variations). I wish I was near you over a year ago as I would have made a trade for your loose for one of my carded but I got a loose from a show in a trade for an EF Civic and with that traded a carded away. This is a nefarious hobby and scammers are out there, everywhere. Hopefully one of your other subscribers can make a trade so you can get what you want and get that nasty taste out of your brain. C'mon subscribers, help him out.
