Beckett Offical Price Guide to Hot Wheels - A good basic reference, but limited in yearly scope and descriptive power, July 23 2011
By Mark, der Bergermeister "The Bergermeister" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beckett Price Guide to Hot Wheels (Paperback)
I use Beckett's Price Guide often, but not as my only source for updated prices, as those quoted are very often well out of date by the time the book hits the stores.In conjunction with Zarnock's book(s), and the variation book well-known in the collector community, the above reference is more useful, but certainly not definitive!
Some car models are not even listed properly, according to the package number or descriptive category title.
The 2011 cars are only given a cursory
listing and are far from complete - just a small sampling that comes out at the beginning of the 2011 year.
As HW enthusiasts know, this book does not venture back earlier than 2006, and that is extremely frustrating for me - at least, from 2000 would be a good change.
One other observation...earlier editions of this book showed fewer cars (often there WERE fewer issued for those years) with better photos and descriptions (I believe it was 2/page, which equalled out to four for
the 2 pages you were looking at - instead of the packed format we see today.). The latter limits the descriptive usefullness of this volume and makes for less revealing pictures...a great short-coming in a book of this importance!
I'd gladly pay more for a more comprehensive and more frequently updated (same year, now) volume, with better descriptions and pictures - and
even a blurb, if possible, of ongoing trends in car model availability, popularity, and price trends.
Overall, this is a good basic reference, and I use it often - BUT, IT IS NOT DEFINITIVE! So, handle its
contents with more than just one grain of salt (or chrome, as we model enthusiasts like to say!).

Only goes back to 2006, Mar 29 2011

This review is from: Beckett Price Guide to Hot Wheels (Paperback)
I wish I had waited another few weeks to buy this as I would have seen the review from the last person. This price guide only covers the cars going back to 2006. It is a nice guide and has some useful information, but I was hoping for something that actually covered all years and not just the past 5.

This review is from: Beckett Price Guide to Hot Wheels (Paperback)
I was very disappointed when I recieved this book. It only contains infomation on Hot Wheels from 2006 through 2010. I couldn't find that specified in the listing, may have missed it??? I was looking for an inclusive price guide.I returned the book.
Listmania!
