[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by aloco I'm wondering how many model railroaders pay retail price for new locomotives? I know I can't afford it. I look for sales, shop on ebay, and look for used stuff when I want to buy locos. [/quote] You are correct, most of us do not pay list price, but I try to purchase at the local store too and that means I pay more than I want some of the time. I am fortunate to have a LHS that usually discounts 20%, and that makes it easy to purchase items that I would not want to send away for. I don't believe it is right to look at you LHS and then buy it wholesale someplace else. I have never paid near list price for cars or trucks either. Just my thing.
