I just received an email advertising the sale on Shelby diecast collectibles. This interested me because I like quality diecasts especially Shelby's and I own many. Two of the items that are on sale are the "Shelby Museum Piece" and the "10 Piece Collector Set". Both of these items can be purchased cheaper at Toys R Us. If you buy these items online they also offer free shipping for purchases over $100. If you are going to put something on sale try to match or beat your competition. I will buy the "10 Piece Collector Set" but not at an inflated rate when there is a Toys R Us near my place of employment and I would be helping my local economy. - Kevin

Just a thought, I buy about everything from Shelby American, the prices are usually close, and the value added is the Shelby American invoice. "purchased directly from Shelby American" is worth the price difference to me and I want to support Shelby American Store all I can. Just one person's opinion.

This is what free markets are about - some guys have better deals, some people look for things that others don't, and people are free to speak about what they like and what they don't like. It's all good.

It works both ways for me.................some stuff is higher and some is lower, it all works out in the end for me.

We try to be as competitive as we can with our prices, and are not always aware of what other companies list the items at. This rule also applies when we hold frequent sales for TS members anywhere from 10%-20%, as well as honoring a 10% discount to your first purchase after you join TS. Were you aware of this? Why don't you give me a call at the number below? I would be happy to help you receive your 10% on the die casts.
