Spidge - there was a LHS I used to insure (I'm an insurance agent) that was in a warehouse just like you said. Was lower rent, less chance of theft, etc. I'm pretty sure he's still around but the store is about an hour away and he carries mostly structures. I have to agree with many of you that the internet is the best store for me at this point. I like to patronize the small business (as I am one) and I love to just drive down the street and pickup what I need but that just isn't possible for me. It really is a shame - I was ready to spend hundreds of dollars for DCC, track, and engine, etc at this man's store but now it looks like the internet vendors will get my money. I have even considered opening a shop myself since my area is so desperate for a decent LHS. But I would have to leave my own business and a rather comfortable salary. That would be interesting. I might try again today to check out another store if I can get up the nerve. If not, I will make my purchases on the internet. Either way, I'll post my results.
