Thanks for the info, I feel a little secure now. I know HotWheels did, but it's still damn near impossible to find them anywhere. The only city I saw them in was Bangalore, and even that was only in a few areasI have bought from Sarvam regularly until 2022. Mostly Tarmac models. Prices were slightly better than other sellers.
Met the owner at a scale model meet, nice guy. Some of the brands he has are sourced from Karzndolls.
AFAIK. Matchbox got certification and HotWheels recently. Can't say for MiniGT.
I texted them on Thursday asking if they are running any discounts or coupon codes at the moment and got no response, which is why I made this post.You can interact with the shop on Instagram. Generally responsive. However, the collection hasn't been updated other than MiniGT's in recent times.
For real man. I was talking to a guy who was selling a few at "offers accepted", and he priced them at 750. When I asked him why so high even for Indian units he started cussing out his reseller, saying that this was the only way to stay afloat. Scalpers are truly some of the worst of humanityHotwheels are scooped up by scalpers these days and re-sold at an inflated price. Shops in Bangalore mostly stock less popular models these days bought for kids.
