I was talking shop with my LHS. I asked him if the local club buys there. He said no, they go somewhere else thats cheaper, but he added, that they never gave him a chance. They never asked for a discount. So tonight I asked, if he would give me a dsicount on Unitrack. He said only if I bought my whole layout at once. I said well I plan on buying more tonight, but your out of stock on some things I need. I didn't occur to him I'm in the new excited spending stage. Spending $40 -50 a week like clockwork on Unitrack which isn't exactly walking out the door. So with his answer he has led me to the internet. Some of the price differences are too much to swallow. His shop Double Slip Switch $65.00 <br />Toy Train Heaven $39, PArailroad the same. Average pack of Kato LHS $8-9 Internet $5-6. <br /> <br />That really adds up over the building of a midsized layout. I gave him a chance. If he would have went 10% I would stay local, but he wouldn't budge, Like my 1-2 x a week wasn't enough. Well enough bloviating for now. Dave
