I have a set of Rivarossi passenger cars (no interiors) bought in Chicago Loop Woolworths in January 1967 for 2.99 each on sale from 4.99. I recently bought several 4 car sets of Rivarossi (with interiors) from Trainworld for 30.00/4 car set or 7.50 each. If the consumer price factor between 1967 and 2005 is right, the 1967 adjusted car price would be like 18.00 now and the 2005 car price adjusted to 1967 price would be a little over a dollar each. I know this is an extreme example. It is kind of funny as I also had an AHM C-liner bought in 67 for $5 which would be like $30 adjusted to 2005. I remember someone who had 20 of those c-liners back then because it was such a deal then(?). I thought of this a few weeks ago when I got the P2k c-liners from TW for $15 each. That would be like $2 each adjusted. I could have got a whole fleet and it would be a lot nicer than those old AHMs.
