Do you think S gaugers will spend that kind of money on these products?

I know some S gaugers that already use the MTH 30-90094 station and several of the farm houses which are almost perfect S scale.

 

Besides, Bar Mills laser cut structure kits (apples to oranges, I know...) run from $49.95 to $149.95, assembly and painting required.  Even the short-lived (for reasons other than price) NASG modular brick factory kit wound up being about a $100 kit. 

 

There's another small manufacurer who makes some S structure kits, but his name escapes me right now.  "Greg's Groceries" was one of his kits.  His kits are over $80 bucks, also. 

 

The $5-$10 wood or plastic structures are long gone. Same for accessories. Ain't nuthin' cheap anymore.
