My current collection of Mini 500's. I am looking to add more colors! Anyone got any to sell or trade? I have extras in Grey, Yellow & Ivory. Let me know what you have! Thanks.

Nice set! Doug, at $35.00 you should have pushed the button! I wish I saw it then. I need to spend more time on eBay!

I like to look at salesman's samples on eBay from time to time. Some pretty cool stuff comes up in that search. Today I came across the mini 500 which looks like Rose Beige! Pretty poor pictures but the white numbers & letters on the dial caught my eye. What do you all think? I pulled the trigger anyway, cheap enough. If it is it will be the crowning piece in my mini 500 collection!

Looks like there are some subtle color differences with the rose beige and beige mini 500 sets.

Yes, but they still have white numbers.

You also dont know if its could be a bit sun faded. Could have been part of a window display for a time. Or they were just made by using the beginning or end of run plastics in those colors.
