[quote user="ATLANTIC CENTRAL"]As one who buys a lot of undecorated kits for my freelance ATLANTIC CENTRAL, I can tell you that high detail undecorated kits are not less expensive by any real measure than their RTR counterparts. [/quote] I have just looked up Intermountain kits. They are all $19.95 unpainted and undecorated. The RTR assembled models are between $30 and $40. That is what I'd expext. For painted and decorated kits I accept that there is no or almost no price difference between kit and RTR as painting and printing is a high cost factor on the models. But manufacturers can rightly price their models as they see fit, sometimes perhaps out of the market. Regards; Volker
