Five Diecast Introduction

Post by FiveDiecast.com » Sat May 04, 2019 4:44 pm

Hello,

In 1998, my father created a wholesale company in France under the name of Magic Models. His love for diecast model cars started at the age of 8 years old and never left him. So, he thought why not combine work and passion?
He started working from the garage of his home in Paris. Very quickly he became a major actor of the diecast wholesale market in Europe. Within a few years he was working from an 8 500 square foot warehouse!

Wanting to offer a wide range of model cars to collectors, Suzi (my wife) and I (Renaud), joined the family business in developing a website and retail activity. In 2004 www.littlebolide.com was launched.
Success was rapidly. 14 years later we have over 8000 references in stock and a 22 000 square foot warehouse.

Our business is worldwide and shipping from the one office in France was no longer sufficient to offer the widest range cost-effective models to our clients.

For this reason, we have crossed the Atlantic to open our warehouse in Florida
We are now based in Melbourne and dedicated to serve you better with the same quality of models and service!

My first two dealings with them were unpleasant. I don't think they're ready to deal with the US market.

First I ordered 3 x 1:18 Spark models at what I thought was a great deal, then they canceled my order due to their pricing issue. Great retailers usually honor their mistakes.

They did however give me a $50 voucher which I used to buy a 1:18 TrueScale, which arrived damaged. I haven't contacted them about it yet and will do so and come back with an update.

I just emailed you guys about the damaged model I received.
