Lots of neat stuff in these pictures. Even see what might be 1/18 planes on a top shelf?

Checking the site the only 1/18 he lists are some recent and still available items like the Panther & Tiger at regular retail. Perhaps he reserves rare items for in-store sales or auctions?

I know some places keep their gold offline as internet sales will clean out your inventory of treasures real quick. When people had to physically travel to your store to get a rare piece it slowed things down. Once you lose those things that made you unique, you no longer can compete with the cheaper online stores and pretty soon you're just plywood in a window.

Looking harder at the craigslist pics, there is quite a bit of inventory he doesn't list online but my assumption is price-wise he is about industry standard at the moment. Someone near there needs to walk in and make a list of everything and then come back and post it here.

That simple, right?


Hey? Aren't you like two hours away or something?

Yep, about 2 hours out and back and about $30-$40 in gas. Been giving it serious thought. Would like to combine it with some other mission in that direction though to accomplish more for the effort. :mrgreen:
