What is wrong, if anything with the model railroad hobby

For me the main gripe with the model railroading industry is the high prices now being charged. I for one am not going to pay $34 for one of Athearn's ready to run genesis boxcars. And to people that have notice less and less spare parts being available, one possibility is that manufacturers may do that on purpose. i mean they don't have a certain spare part you may have to buy a whole kit from them again. I will be saving money from now on by going with cheaper manufacturers such as Model Die Casting, Accurail, Model Power, and Bowser for my freight car kits. I will buy any future Athearn locomotives(not ready to run ones) at model railroad flea markets.
