E-Bay is my savior. Living in Wyoming where hobby shops are far and few between. I find E-bay to be a great place to get my hands on what I want. I am also a paitient person and dont bid on the first thing I see. The advice about being careful, and shopping around and looking for exactly what you want is well said. I also reccomend don't even bid unless there is a clear in-focus well exposed picture of the item that is for sale. I learned the hard way on this one. I was able to repair it in my shop, but the seller made the picture slighly out of focus to hid this flaw. I shop around for deals and bargains and I often pick up what I call "junker" lots. Lots that have lots of cars and locomotives that I can have fun tinkering away fixing up and making runable again. I often duplicate equipment with these purchases. But that is Ok. I plan when I get out of college to super detail them, repaint them. and resell them as one of a kind custom models, which they truely will be. Peace. James
