There are customers out there that know the prices of everything and the value of nothing. Then there are hobby shop owners who haven't a clue how to run a retail business. And then there is everything in between. <br /> <br />I shop everywhere. Local, internet dealers, mailorder and Ebay. I do what makes sense for me. For example, it might be worth it for me to buy my Digitrax system from my local dealer and pay full price. Why? Because I know if I have a question, and lord knows I have many when it comes to DCC, he's always happy to help me. If I want a new loco, I'll orobably shop the net or Ebay. If I need some Woodland Scenic stuff or some other odds and ends, I'll go local. <br /> <br />It's a give and take. If you have a local dealer who knows what he's doing, it's always good business to keep him as your friend - and that means give him some business in exchange for the service. <br /> <br />
