It is also interesting to see that you have just received a new consignment of models from Exoto when some of thenm are retired on Exoto`s website.

Hi HurricaneHarold,

We obtained the Exoto agency in May. What has happened prior to our acquisition I really have no control over, I am dissapointed to hear that your experience has not been favourable in the past dealing directly with the manufacturer.

Ordering directly from us as the Only Australian distributor will ensure quick delivery & 100% guarantee on your purchase.

With respect to retired models, this only means that Exoto has no stock. Some models may be manufactured again others will not. Please also consider that Exoto have small production runs & it is not uncommon for them to sell out of a new model in a few months. A new consignment means just that, a new shipment, some are brand new models & others we have bought from there existing stocks.

No smoke & mirrors here, our 15 years as the leading Diecast collectable manufacturer in Australia & now agents for a few brands of 1st class imported models should give you peace of mind.

Thanks for your response

I hope that you don't mind me posting here as I am obviously not a member of your club but do collect die cast models. I have a huge amount from Exoto and only once did I ever have a problem and that really wasn't their fault. I have all six of the Daytona Coupes plus the stainless one they gave to anyone who got the whole collection. I have some high priced ones, in fact I was offered over $500 for a few of them, but won't sell. I have the first 260 cobra made and if you use a magnifying glass you can read the 260-1-EX hand painted on the valve covers. I have a lot of cheap ones too. I think over all I have around 350/400many of which include NASCAR cars and Dale Earnheart's car that he wrecked at Talladega. There just aren't many die cast collectors around here to chat with.

Ron
