[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by swdave Why are you using list prices for 1970, and discounted prices for 2005. The list price for an Athearn RTR GP35 is $89.95. A Bowser 2-6-4 $106 now? Where is it who has it for that price I want one.??????????????????????????????? [/quote] Did i say list prices? My mistake. Both set of numbers are advertised prices. I'll go back and correct my post if I mis-typed. Note that I am talking about the kit loco plus the detailing kit when I mention the prices,not the RTR Bowser. The Bowser kit is available a few places, but I don't remember whose ad I pulled it from. I'll try to look back when I have more time. Jon Edit: I don't see where I said list prices -- maybe I'm blind. For both 1970 and 2005, these are advertised prices by dealers, not manufacturer's list prices. Edit again: The Bowser K4 Pacific 4-6-2 kit is listed online at Standard Hobby Supply today at a lower price than I showed in my analysis -- although they're out of stock until 5-13.
