Where to Find Code 3 - eBay, Amazon, Craigslist?

Post by race2c » Wed Aug 15, 2018 3:46 am

Hi Everyone,

Long time lurker, first time poster.haha.

I wanted to reach out and see where everyone is purchasing or finding Code 3 diecast now-a-days. On the hunt for a few certain models and would love to hear some thoughts.

We all know about eBay, Amazon and Craigslist...any other resources?

Thanks in advance!

this forum is a good place to start, just post what you are looking for on the "buy, sell, trade" portal. then check out several Facebooks pages that offer C3 for sale.

I have been with Fire Engines.Net for years and use it predominately. I find it really helpful. Weeds out a lot of problem children which we have had over the years but it doesn't take long to figure them out and expose them with everyone sticking together to make sure we have a great forum.

The Facebook group I belong to is "Model Emergency Vehicles For sale and trade" at https://www.facebook.com/groups/diecastemergency/

I'm sure there are more. I also belong to a FIRE TRUCK group and a FIRE STATION group but those are just for posting pics of stations or trucks.

Ebay is a good source, But I've noticed over the past year or two, people have been pricing the items way to high for what they are. So you've got to be careful not to spend to much.

I’m starting to compile a list to thin the herd and make space. Hopefully I can help you out! I’ll send you a pm

I started my list on the Model Emergency Vehicle Facebook page to get started. I don’t have enough posts on here yet to post or send private messages and don’t want to flood the board
