If only you had requested the GE Evolution locomotive two weeks ago. My local hobby store sold their last one just before Christmas for around $900.00 new in it's factory sealed box. In the future I would recommend to you that within 30 days of any new item announcements that is the time to decide whether or not you want an item. That is when you usually get the best price and you know that you are getting it. I paid around $800.00 for mine.
