I'm sorry but something just isn't right with DM's die-cast portion of their website!
It seems like the past 2 weeks almost EVERY model disappeared and then some old stock/discontinued models BRIEFLY re-surfaced. I bought the DM Pace Camaro 2 weeks ago and the LE Dream Truck. At the time when I ordered the Camaro I asked how many they had left. While she said she couldn't tell me how many they had, I was told "at least 200" THere is NO WAY IN HELL they sold 200 Camaro Pace cars in the past two weeks! My point THAT along with several other models I asked "how many left" and was told 170-300+ are now gone too. I wonder if the person operating their website has screwed up something and dosn't have a clue what he/she is doing! My point? IF you want a model and don't see it on their website dont assume that it's sold out or gone. Call them and if you have the product code give it to them and have them search to see if it's available!

The 1957 Blue Mercury Monclair Convertible appeared for a very short time. As soon as I saw it I called. The sales rep said their may be one left, let me check. When she came back to the phone she said not sure but we'll send it if it's still there. Makes me wonder if somewhere in the warehouse they found a very few. Three days later I got an email telling me it was shipped. Not sure what to think about old issues now appearing, just glad I got the Merc.

Same thing happened to me with the Twister Mustang.
She said there may be one left and she would ship it if that were the case. Three days later I received a postcard saying they were all gone.
