Cassie, Melody, and Jessie all do a fantastic job in the warehouse.

God is the owner and we give him credit for any success we have.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)

We started off simple and small in August of 1995.  We have always been a web based company and were one of the first, if not the first business to offer diecast collectibles on the internet.  Our first web site listed about 20 ERTL items. Business was slow at first but grew steadily.

It used to be novel enough just being on the web, but today nearly everyone is.  We try to make ourselves different by providing a superior selection, a state-of-the-art web site, and old fashioned individualized  customer service.  It's not easy, but few worthwhile things are.

In 2000 we picked up the business and family and relocated to Joplin, MO.  Eventually we constructed a new warehouse to more effectively handle the growing business.  Although, it wasn't long until we were wishing we had made it bigger...

2001 was a banner year for 3000toys.com in many ways.  Thanks to our new warehouse staff we were able to survive the Christmas rush.

With the warehouse barely a year old and already bulging at the seams, 2002 brought the construction of a 3,200 square foot addition. This gives us room to expand the product offering and stock deeper when good deals or special products come along.
