Personally, I think those of us that are looking for S gauge trains and stuff have a VERY wide choice at York (and other shows like Allentown) compared to the % we make up of the entire market. I know O folks have remarked at the number of S dealers at shows, and at the quality of offerings. Yes, the prices of "like new" items are high, but there is less of it than vintage Lionel. Although I am primarily into O, all the purchases I made at the two 2018 Yorks were for Flyer postwar passenger cars (adding up to almost $500.).
