Has anyone else's Local Hobby Shop gone out of business lately?

I agree with MisterBeasley. The internet is one of the things that's killed the business of hobby shops, that and computer games which kids find a lot more interesting than hobbies such as model railroading I'm sad to say. <br />If a hobby shop wants to stay alive today, they also have to sale on-line as well, and sale as cheaply as possible as so to give the other guys competition... <br />I have to admit, I can sit right here with my bank card and order almost anything I want without having to leave the house, and I like that very much. Besides, most hobby shops have raised their prices to make up for their loses, so I come out better by buying off ebay or from on-line train shops. <br />It's just a change of the times... <br /> <br />trainluver1
