    Exclamation Swerve (Chevy Aveo)

    Added this guy to my wants list... only just stumbled across it randomly the other day and I found the whole story behind it very intriguing... plus he looks great and would fit in perfectly with my classics/universe collection.

    So does anyone here have one they're willing to offload at a reasonable price, or do I have to resort to paying drug money on evil-Bay?

    I suspect you'll be forced to go to eBay. But good luck with it (:

    That Swerve is nice, it's a shame it never got a wide release. You can get them for about $80.

    Yeah I've been in negotiations with that seller

    I was hoping to get one closer to home since he's based in Canada (and we all know what shipping from Canada is like)

    But if there isn't anyone here who has one for sale, I might just bite the bullet and get one from him.

    They were initially only available in China if you test drove an Aveo. They dried up, price went up. Then, GM Europe had a few for sale from their site and the price dropped again. They dried up, price went up. Lastly, GM Canada released a bucketload in Canada, and the price dropped again. I'm not sure there'll be another opportunity for the price to drop again.

    I am also interested in getting a Aveo Swerve, maybe we can buy 2 or 3 from a Canadian to reduce the shipping?

    I already went ahead and purchased one off eBay seeing as it was unlikely that someone here would have one for sale.

    I managed to negotiate it down to $80 USD including shipping to Oz.

    It's the cheapest price I could find anywhere.

    This is the guy I got it off... his BIN price is $74.99 + shipping, but msg him and ask him to confirm shipping costs to Oz (should be about $20) and then make him an offer at $60.

    He originally declined and wanted $90USD inc shipping, but if you stand your ground with him, he'll eventually cop $80.

    Good luck with it.

    Arrow Added Henkei Ratchet to wants list

    I've copied my other thread to here.

    So, if anyone has a set they want to offload, reply here or shoot me a PM.

    To a lesser degree, I wouldn't mind getting duplicates of the other 'saber teams' either (Star Saber, Energon Saber & Dark Saber), so let me know.

    So in order of priority and preference:
    1. Cryo Saber
    2. Star Saber
    3. Energon Saber
    4. Dark Saber
    I've also added Henkei (or Classics) Ratchet to my wants list.

    Complete wants list is on the first post and on my signature... can anybody here help me out?

    I picked up Chevy Aveo Swerve ages ago - it's a good mold and not a bad one to get since it's kinda one of a kind.
