Best place to buy 1:18 diecast

Seems like you guys have a really good grasp on the diecast market and I've only just started in it. Where do you guys get all these. I frequently check Wal-Mart and Target, but that's only limited to Jada toys for the most part. Not that those are bad, but I'd like to get some variety. Let me know.

eBay.

Or do a search for diecast stores in your city. I found a great diecast store just by going to yahoo and typing "diecast stores in Milwaukee, WI".

Ever been to Model Empire on Greenfield? I haven't been there in a couple years.

I've had luck at some of the KB toy outlets.

Yeah Collectable Diecast is an awesome place for diecast.

And then eBay is where I get around 95% of my diecast...mostly because places like walmart, zellers or whatever don't stock very much variety
