I have been to three hobby shops near me (20-60 miles away) and everyone sells for MSRP. I don't understand what's wrong with all of you. Do you pay sticker for your car or truck? Don't you offer a lower price when you buy a house? Does your boss give you a 20% raise every year when inflation is 3%? Maybe most of you are wealthy, or at least well to do, but I for one cannot throw my money away to help some business stay afloat. The hobby shops get most of their product at 60% of list, so they can drop prices 20-25% and still make out. If their volume is too low to make money, they are in the wrong business. They sell for list because you all pay list. Stop buying and they will drop prices, if they want to stay in business. I spend $100-150 a month, and ALL of it goes to internet dealers. When the LHS wants to start helping me out, I will help them out.
