[quote user="Don Gibson"][quote user="Safety Valve"] <p>Well, Ive a stack of Kaydee 148 whiskers waiting for the crappy ones to fail. (And they will) It's too bad the manufactors refuse to invest a few dollars and install Kaydees right from the factory.</p><p>to discriminate in future rolling stock purchases based on what I call the "Hassle factor" the fixing of shoddy work. The less potential for it the more likely I will buy that boxcar.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p><strong>translation:</strong> You want someone else to pay the $2.00 so you don't have to?</p><p>You wan't something for Free - So does the manufacturer! InterMoutain products come with Kadee's. How many do you have? You get what you pay for, and vice-versa.</p><p>Buyers of Brass haven't gotten any couplers with their expensive $200 - $600 purchases for years. It would seem that most of the complaints come from low-end buyers.</p><p> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>I dont mind paying the 2.00 or whatever as long they are installed correctly. In this age of 400 dollar Sound/DCC engines with dummy front couplers really piss me off.</p><p>Sometimes I think about ditching this crap and go back to O gauge where all couplers are one height and need a anchor to break.</p>
