Posts: 1 | Rare mispackaged Kevin flynns light cycle???
on Saturday, January, 08, 2011 3:05 PM
So I was at TRU the other day and found they had a fresh
Shipment of die casts, so I picked up a Sam light cycle and Kevin light cycle.
As I looked through them to get one with the best paint job, I noticed one
Of the Kevin Flynn ones was labeled on the front as SAMs light cycle
And on the back as Kevin flynns light cycle. I bought it cause it was only
3 bucks, is it worth anything due to the mislabeling? I'm thinkin of putting it up
On eBay, or should I hang on to it?

I don't think mislabeling is worth much any more because it happens pretty regularly, but you never know... you just have to find a collector who finds such things interesting.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Very true. I have a Beatles CD called "Magical Mystery Tour" on the cover, but on the CD it's labelled "Let It Be" Documentary.
Not worth much now, but someday, it will.

Well, it depends on the collector.
Diecast collectors do pay a lot for mislabelled or miscarded models.
I have one, a "white" Sentry's Light cycle (the label card says Sentry's, but the card in back says Sam's) - was going to post it when I get a chance to take a pic and watermark it.
You have to be careful with the pics of products you post, a lot of eBay scammers will take the pic and try to sell that product
If you don't want it - I'll GLADLY take it off your hands...

Packaging Errors are not worth much of a premium these days.
On vintage toys they're worth more because there are even less of the toy remaining unopened in the first place.
But on a brand new series, for that particular item to gain much of a premium you'll have to hold it for a LONG LONG time. It's for completists and lunatics that value those sorts of things.
TO me it means bad quality control at the chinese plant where the things are packaged.
Errors in Stamps and Money collecting are genuinely worth more because the government is usually QUITE good at not letting them out into the public circulation. Toys aren't nearly as stringently QCed.

But yeah. It's an error. Some people might get a kick out of it as an "oddity", but it's not like a misprinted coin or bill or something. It's worth exactly what someone will pay for it. Would you want it? If you think it's neat, keep it.

Sometimes they are comedic and are valued as such, most of the time they're nothing.
