Difference?

What is the difference between Bit Char-Gs and the ones on www.char-g.com? They are much cheaper, and I can't figure out why. Sorry if this has already been answered, but I am new to this whole thing.

Although the site says Char-G, I dont see anywhere where it says Tomy or Tomica so im guessing they are clones. Some of them are pretty cool looking bodies and I wouldnt mind getting for myself.

This guy lives 10 minutes from me, and was trying to tell me that he has the real thing and the bit char g from japan is the clone... What a goof ball.
His site says that the real deal is $19 and the microsizers are more expensive... Why would the clone be more expensive than the original??? What a joke.... He's trying to GANK kids out of their allowance... Don't pay any attention to it.

He's NUTS... He thinks the tomy products are clones... He's just upset cause he was tricked into buying 5000 units of clones and now instead of taking the loss, he's trying to pass along the rip off

Misery loves company...LOL

What?

Are you talking about me? If you are serious you are mistaken. I only learned about these cars a week ago. I have a feeling you are just being an idiot, but I just want to let you know you are wrong.

Chill out... I'm not talking about you... I understand that your just asking a question... What I'm saying is that the guy running this site you were asking about is not thinking straight.. He's very confused and doesn't understand what he's gotten himself into...

re-read my quote...

Oh.

Sorry. I thought you meant I was advertising these cars. Thanks for the warning though.

payaso is right, I would suggest that you avoid that site at all costs, it's one thing to sell clones, but it's another thing to try to trick people into thinking that they are genuine TOMYs. Very bad business IMO.
