I'm going to try to make custom colors of these. If they look better than my 1st and 2nd futile attempts, then I might sell some.

I bought the exact same model from Wal-Mart for $20 CAD. It's sitting here in my office, to remind me of my Vibe!

They had a pile of them at Walmart. But i noticed they are not around any more.

ragingfish · Post by **ragingfish** » Sun Feb 29, 2004 1:26 pm

I couldnt' even find single-packaged matchbox at walmart? All I could find were the 10, 20, 30 packs...

I finally found one in a grocery store. They had 6 matchboxes, and one was a vibe. Afterr I applied the factory rebate, conquest discount, and matchbox in the driveway certificate, I was able to get enough off the sticker that the monthly payments fit in my budget.

I just won a Voltz Bit Char-g on Ebay yesterday. can't wait to get it.

man, if i'd known that guy had so many of those little buggers, i'd have tried to buy one from him! oh well. i still was one of the firsts to get one, so i'll claim that! lol

And I got the one before you. Just like you, I have another bidder kept upping up the bid price I can't really complain considering that this website, http://www.nanorc.com is selling it for $119

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Mon Mar 29, 2004 5:38 am

well, i paid $99 for mine! can't remember when it was, but back in october maybe.

4X4CHICHI · Post by **4X4CHICHI** » Mon Mar 29, 2004 6:45 am

I got mine for $39.99 plus shipping. not a bad price, but when it's something you want, what are you going to do?

4X4CHICHI · Post by **4X4CHICHI** » Fri Apr 02, 2004 2:34 am

just got my voltz bit char-G yesterday. it's cool, i really like the factory 17"s. too cool
