$1000? <br /> <br />I have already blown thru that in the last 4 years in the hobby. <br /> <br />But no where does it say in the hobby that Zealots have the right to stand over the masses and say "You need to spend x dollars for THIS not that or something else." <br /> <br />Every item that I have decided to buy has brought me pleasure. Be it $1.00 or $100.00 Some of these items I have resold to others for a lessor price knowing they too will enjoy these items. <br /> <br />I will listen to that Zealot who burns with passion and ask him why he feels so strongly about (Insert item). Maybe he knows something I dont. <br /> <br />If I had a chance to tell everyone just how good Kaydee couplers are versus others who make imitations in plastic.. I would. And why. <br /> <br />The hobby is about enjoying trains in a way that reduces the stresses on your life. No where does it say I "Must" spend x number of dollars. <br /> <br />Some layouts are well in the excess of 1000. Some of the work of talented hobby masters that have given us the pleasure of knowing thier works and learning how to improve our own work is priceless. <br /> <br />Money is not everything. But I'll take that 20 pack of Kaydee #5's please... because I know they work. <br />
