I feel this will/is an interesting thread. However, one thing that is somewhat unique in this hobby as opposed to most other hobbies is the way new rolling stock and/or locomotives are introduced. I am referring to pre-orders. For example I don't think golf clubs, model planes engines, etc are pre-ordered before manufacturing begins. The model train pre-order has to affect the MSRP of these products as there is less of a gamble in making the first run of these products. If the price affect is high or low I do not know. But it surly does affect supply and demand economics, does it not?
