Who says Walthers is under any obligation to stock Con-cors entire line, i am willing to bet you that Walthers is probably their biggest buyer/customer.

Having worked in this business..........I would think not. Concor's best customer? I would guess Trainworld.

Remember ConCor sells direct dealers, big and small, and direct to you.

Walthers has dropped the ball!

I don't know who at Con-Cor is doing the complaining, but in my opinion I think that person's time would be better spent straightening out their own website.  I took a look at it and it seems to be populated with "under construction" notices, " a "building a mobile friendly website" (whatever that might mean) notice, and references to sales that ended  3 or 4 years ago.

Hi everyone,

Since none of us work at either Walthers or Con-Cor it's time to let this thread die. The word "unknown" as it relates to restocking at Walthers could very well be the default choice in the software pull-down menu when the last item is pulled off the shelf and a re-order has yet to take place. There is no conspiracy.

So let's give both companies a rest.

Sincerely,

Neil Besougloff
