For me, it’s online discount sites. I’ve narrowed it to 4, but any suggestions. BTW, on one, a Atlas MP15 w/o decoder is $69.97.
The local hobby shop is a discount store, basicly
I buy most of my supplies from online discounters such as Trainworld, Ridge Road Station, MB Klein, and many cottage industries. I get glue, stripwood, styrene, paint, and other scratchbuilding supplies from the various discount arts and crafts in this area. I very seldom patronize the LHS as they rarely have what I want and sell at MSRP.
