Description:

I have always liked die-cast cars (think Matchbox, Hotwheels, Micro Machines, etc.), and I thought a swap would be a fun way to start, expand, or change up a collection. Plus, they're pretty inexpensive and lightweight.

So, for this swap, send your partner at least 2 die-cast cars; these can be new or ones you already have, but make sure any you send that aren't new in package are in good condition. A small amount of wear and tear on truly old models is understandable, but we all know what a Hotwheel with teeth marks from your dog/cat/child/sibling looks like! And nobody wants a chewed-up car in their swap. Unless you do; feel free to put that in the comments.

Package your cars up nicely, add a note to your partner, and send them along!

I also think that unless your partner says in the comments that they'd like or don't mind a NASCAR themed car, try to send one that isn't NASCAR. Some people truly love NASCAR and some people just like little die-cast cars, and sometimes those categories are mutually exclusive.

People with a rating below 4.8 will be automatically excluded, and since this is the first swap I've done I'm excluding newbies until I see how it goes (or if there's even any interest!). This is a USA only swap.

Oh, I so wish this was international! Please alert me via PM (so I don't miss it) if by any chance you decide to change it to international. I love these cars and gave two really cool (new) '60s cars to my cat for Christmas. Made sure they had open (no 'glass') windows so she could hook her claw in the window to stop them! Btw, kitty's 13 so she's no spring chicken, but they roll so enticingly, she finds. ;)
