I just wish the dealers would realize that if they had pricing that was realistic, they would actually sell product. Maybe that means the vendors would have to search for replacements to sell, maybe add American Models, S Helper and Flyonel to the tables but that's the game.
At that point more new entries would be encouraged to get into S and it would be better for everyone; manufacturers, vendors and buyers. I pray common sense will enter into the game soon.
For those who think the old Flyer isn't over-priced; Say you purchase a Flyer Pacific for $150, then many will upgrade to a DC motor ($40), and either DCC or ERR system (roughly $175 with accessories), which is a total of $365. If you purchase a new Flyer Chief Berk, it is about $340, take it out of the box and run it on AC, DC or DCC. Hello!
Norm was looking for an old heavyweight passenger car to kitbash. There was nothing below $60, that we found and on most of those the condition was abysmal. Hey Nick Smith has them for $30 in the store.
