That is the problem for the collector. Store employees have first dibs, I’ve also heard that the delivery guys get to box first before they deliver. But that’s also the fun of the hunt. Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don’t. Best of luck on your next hunt my friend!
I think you were fine/fully justified with what you were inquiring about. I haven’t had that good of a hunting rate at Dollar Tree, it seems to get hit just as hard as Walmart/Target/others or there may be things going on like you documented that I’m not aware of/not in the collecting loop enough to know about. I was getting the same issue by a certain Target a few times. Pegs were almost empty of matchbox but when they checked I had to wait a while and they came back with a plain box with only 14-15 cars in it. Saw they were busy doing something else so I asked another employee and they magically found a Target basket in the back with 9 matchbox in it which included the reds/other new models. Had similar things happen since then too at that store.
I saw a lot of good stuff. Just because it's not something that you can flip doesn't mean that it's not good. That classic cobra was sweet. True collectors see the beauty in almost all castings. Not just treasure hunts.
Lmao this is funny. You finished hanging them and you still checking them hoping something pops up 😂😂😂 Imagine if YOU were to work somewhere they have hot wheels. I could only imagine. You can’t get mad you’d do the same.
Yeah she's shady as hell, dollar tree workers i wouldn't expect anything else. Product has to hit the floor first. Guests have first picks , that's ALWAYS how it is. No matter what
Yep, I believe this happens in Kentucky ALL THE TIME. Dollar Tree has some real NUTS managing locations!! I ro know a few real nice and they will help and find you a box BUT bad managers make DT so bad.
Dude, I would’ve went back again and see if she brings you some open boxes with her and I would’ve took everything on the pegs Hotwheels related and unable peg them so they can restock them
He didnt buy that box. She didnt do anything bad to him. Dude just come there as a customer he don't work there, why yall think he can open boxes? People who work there, that's their job to open boxes and to put them out. 😅😂😂😂😂
I was in Publix and I chatted up two women who were filling the hooks. One said she takes the colorful ones and buys them. Meanwhile, a third one came up who must have been their boss and asked if everything was OK. The first woman repeated what she had said, and the mgr told that was not allowed. They took the rest of the cars that didn't fit ( i looked thru them first) and left. I found a TH in the ones on the pegs!
@@Chris_Hood They have a whole PR department and Research department centered around their relationship with consumers. The heads of these departments report directly to the CEO. They have a Global Consumer Insights department specifically dedicated to brand strategy. You can bet they do care about if they are putting that much money into these departments.
Like ignorance is bliss or something. I personally don't feel so motivated to drill down and find these kinds of things out, shenanigans at the store itself.
I feel the pain man some of my Dollar tree in my area is holding boxes too to some collectors but employee getting the good stuff before hitting the floor is hard to beat. I feel you man :(
Wow Bro that's crazy 😧 I don't think she should call herself a collector, a scalper maybe 🤔 Sorry you didnt get anything good. Totally unfair 😡 Thanks for posting, and letting us know, where not to go 👍
What bro? She is scalper and he isnt? 🤔🤔🤔 Yall guys lost your mind. Dude is scalper. She works tjere she can do that. He can't. How yall can't understand 😅😅😅😅
All I can say is with what you got to peg up on that visit, my wallet would have been lighter afterwards. I'm not one to crave supers or TH, the TH I find are usually the fantasy cars anyway. The employee could have been busy which led to the delays, and those backrooms are hella crowded. The hunt is hit or miss, don't let it go to your head. Skip that store if it's too sus.
@@Cali_Collector75 just please don't let the hunt become the life. I got back from watching some fellow in Canada saying he's gotta hit a Toys R Us when two managers aren't on the job. No way I'm gonna take it so far I need to find when some people work
Yo bro that's crazy I went to a DT and a manager told me she goes through the boxes and get all the good ones for herself major problems..... Just like holding boxes for people they are not collectors they are scalpers
@@cgtcoolguytvcollection3569 why she can't do that and she work there but you scalpers who don't work there yall can come to store and ask for boxes to go through them and take all good ones and that's it? Why yall don't buy whole box then go home and jerk on sth's? I just wish to see few of you guys so I can make my fist busy
Hey man , if a employee ever brings out a fresh box like that again and you know for sure she is going through them . Dude you take down her name first , than confront her first with the threat of calling HOT Wheels Inc. For her job. GARENTYED SHE GIVES THOSE HUNTS UP TO YOU. She's probably buying them after work for her husband and they know and are warned of being fired for that very reason. Trust me, my friend Tim did it at Toy,s R us . Good luck 👍.
Its obvious she housed what you were going to cop,sorry I know the struggle-few yrs back you got about 75%of what u looked for today the stock is prescalped.

Man bro. That's everywhere! I can't stand it. How do u compete with a worker. They do that at some of the dollar generals in my town. Telling me they collect. I chalk those up and don't go to those anymore. Hope you get to find better stores!
Sorry man. LOL that looks like the same corrupt Dollar Tree that I went to one time. 😅 That is why I skip some of the Dollar Trees. I know for sure they or someone is taking some of them before putting them out. Cool but frustrating when you hear that they are collectors too. But then why take all of them?
You can’t really get mad bro if that was you in that situation and they let you open boxes before putting them out shit idk about you but I definitely would be taking what I want as well she did bring out new cars it just not treasures hunts still cool cars
@@eddiemelendez2951 real talk! One thing is to have a hobby and collect those cars, other thing is to be a scalper and going through the boxes all day and record yourself "weeee I find super treasure hunt" 🤔🤔😬🫣😭😭
Yo Issac, lame on Dollar Tree and non-stockage! This is really bad for the hobby. It happened with a lot of boxes from Target and Walmart. Employees take the hot, hard to find stuff and buy it to resell on eBay. It means the end customer has to pay more and is never rewarded for driving around to find stuff. I would report this to dollar tree. It sounds petty to report something like this, but bottom line is these stores need customers and if no one is buying stuff from them because employees are taking the best ones, than they should be concerned about that. I would be if I was a manager or owner. Aside from that, hope you are well brother.
She can't shop while she's working. She could only shop during a break or meal time. Clearly she's doing something she's not supposed to while working.
Ranting because you didn't get to cherry pick the hot wheels before she did. Lol. Grow up. Hot wheels scalpers and collectors take this to a whole ridiculous level. I just bought 100s in 2 huge lots. Full of THs and STs. Thats the way to buy them. Not chasing store managers down like a zero.
Bro why you don't buy whole case than youll get good ones? This lady works there, she can go through boxes, why she can't and you can? Are you serious? What's wrong with you people? Bro if you are collector don't be scalper 😂😂😂 This video is disgusting and what you talking here and acting mad at her, 😅😅😅 brooo buy box. Who the f are you to talk bad about lady who works there. This video is amazing 😅😅
Wow smart guy maybe he doesn’t wanna spend 100+ dollars for a bunch of fantasy castings to get the few good cars there are, and if you watch him you’d know he’s not a scalper, why spread hate on someone else? 😂 it’s sad bro get a life 💀
