Green Machines typically go between $50 and $100...so if they were in that range, what would your thoughts be?
I'd say you have lost your marbles

I'd say you have lost your marbles JasonD 08-25-2007, 12:34 PM I'd say you have lost your marbles Based on that response, I'd say you have no idea the rarity and value of them. But thanks for your opinion anyway. :lol: Check completed eBay listings for "green machine greenlight". Some are as high as $300. Chevycobb 08-25-2007, 04:13 PM I would buy a green machine for sure!! mdacton 08-25-2007, 04:19 PM Check completed eBay listings for "green machine greenlight". Some are as high as $300. Thats crazy.....but with my need for booze and low class street walkers I'm going to have to pass and hold on to my couple dollars JasonD 08-25-2007, 04:24 PM Thats crazy.....but with my need for booze and low class street walkers I'm going to have to pass and hold on to my couple dollars Hey, I can understand that. A man's gotta have his priorities. :lol: Perhaps you can use a Green Machine as a bargaining chip to upgrade to a higher class of street walker? Possibly one that comes with booze? Two for one! If there is one that that street walkers know about, it is the value of high-quality automotive collectibles. ;) mdacton 08-25-2007, 04:45 PM If there is one that that street walkers know about, it is the value of high-quality automotive collectibles. ;) sounds like you have experience in this area.......I may rethink this now......would be nice to move up to a higher class street walker, perhaps one without a wooden leg and eye patch Purple 92 SS 08-25-2007, 06:24 PM honestly, yes i can see your point jason, but i was hoping for a more economical and fair price.. 20-25 each.. i can see.. but much more than that, i'd feel like there was gouging.. and yes, i konw what green machines go for.. but im not a die cast collector, im a Camaroz28.com fan, and camaro fan in general.. thats the only reason that I much like many others here, are interested in the diecasts to begin with. JasonD 08-25-2007, 07:01 PM sounds like you have experience in this area.......I may rethink this now......would be nice to move up to a higher class street walker, perhaps one without a wooden leg and eye patch Beware the street walkers with walkie-talkies. honestly, yes i can see your point jason, but i was hoping for a more economical and fair price.. Don't get excited, I was just saying "what if". :D If I am going to do a special sale, of course I am going to make it a special price for my friends here. I won't be giving them away, but I won't be asking for eBay value, either. :cool: I strongly suggest that if anyone is interested in this, to go to http://www.cz28store.com and enter your e-mail address in the "MAILING LIST" area (if not done already). I will give that list a head's up before I post here when this "barely secret sale" happens. :D Purple 92 SS 08-25-2007, 07:04 PM cool. you had me going there.. ;) is there any way we can get any rough estimate of number available? JasonD 08-25-2007, 07:15 PM cool. you had me going there.. ;) is there any way we can get any rough estimate of number available? Best answer I can give you on that is "not many". Purple 92 SS 08-25-2007, 07:28 PM ok. understandable. next question, I gotta take the wife out to dinner, can you not put them up for sale till like tomorrow? :) JasonD 08-26-2007, 11:26 AM ok. understandable. next question, I gotta take the wife out to dinner, can you not put them up for sale till like tomorrow? :) Won't be for several days yet. Purple 92 SS 08-26-2007, 03:15 PM cool ;) hope i am lucky enough to pick up one. JasonD 08-29-2007, 08:01 PM Okay, here's the "Semi-Secret Green Machine Sale" info! I think I will make this a Labor Day sale. Why not? Holidays are cool. I get the day off and so does most everyone else. Here's the scoop... Starting at 12:01am EST Monday September 3rd (late Sunday night/early Monday Morning) and running until 11:59pm that night (nearly a 24-hour window) I will have the coveted CamaroZ28.Com Die-Cast Car Green Machine version on sale in the CZ28Store for a very special price. I figure since most people have that day off work, everyone can get a good shot at this. It will be a very fair price compared to market value. Consider it this way, it will be lower than what they normally go for on eBay. If you like your collectibles and you like the car and you like this site, you won't want to miss out on this one. It will also come with a signed certificate of authenticity like the pictures mentioned before. No one else offers this with their Green Machines. I do not expect to be repeating this sale with this car, so set your alarms or do what you gotta do. When the clock strikes midnight or so at the end of Sunday night, I will add the car in a small limited quantity to the store for purchase at http://www.cz28store.com. Once they are gone or 24 hours pass, the sale is over. I expect o be shipping them out on Tuesday which means that most will have them by the end of the week. There will still be the 24 hour advance notice e-mail as mentioned before to those signed up on the CZ28Store mailing list. Consider it a reminder and if you haven't added your e-mail to the list, you might want to in case it slips your mind. You probably want to anyway, since that mailing list will get advance orders in the future on other cool stuff. And there ya have it! Have your PayPal or Google Checkout accounts ready, these might go fast. See ya midnight, Sunday night at http://www.cz28store.com! Purple 92 SS 08-29-2007, 08:49 PM Excellent. Thank you jason. mdacton 09-02-2007, 08:29 PM Starting at 12:01am EST Monday September 3rd (late Sunday night/early Monday Morning) Tonights the night 95 firechicken 09-02-2007, 11:21 PM look what i found http://cgi.ebay.com/CamaroZ28-Com-Greenlight-Camaro-Concept-GREEN-MACHINE_W0QQitemZ220141961374QQihZ012QQcategoryZ22 3QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem mdacton 09-02-2007, 11:32 PM :think::nuts: JasonD 09-02-2007, 11:35 PM look what i found http://cgi.ebay.com/CamaroZ28-Com-Greenlight-Camaro-Concept-GREEN-MACHINE_W0QQitemZ220141961374QQihZ012QQcategoryZ22 3QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem :think::nuts: :lol: Like a baseball card, they are only worth what some will pay for them.

JasonD 09-03-2007, 01:00 AM :lol: that didn't take long, he made more money than a gang of prostitutes on a friday night It is not how much you make, it is how much you keep. The manufacturer got a good deal. ;) cool jason, count me in on the next one.. Watch this forum. New posts in a few weeks or less. will any of these green machines we just ordered be signed? No, but the Certificates of Authenticity are. would the new one happen to look like this? http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p310/JGReaper/custom5thgencamaro.jpg ;) Not the next one. Or the one after that.

I dont know about you all, but I think that the 35.00 price was worth it! what do you all think? -steve shock6906 09-13-2007, 11:32 AM Wow, I couldn't imagine paying that much for it. And to think, I was hesitant to drop 40 on it. Purple 92 SS 09-14-2007, 05:46 AM i know right! i was thinking that when i ordered my 4, i was like, should i really do this, thats a lot of money for 4 little toy cars... ( actually, my friend bought 2 and I bought 2, which then, he turned around and bought my 2 for me for my birthday, so I got 2 for free, and the other two are his) so it worked out real well. :) I got 2 green machines for free cause i got 2 really killer friends, even though i ordered them and paid for all 4 at once.. I know iknow, too much information, and you really dont care, but hey, i am bored at work at 5:50am, so what else is there to do? LoL!
