Nate, I'm curious and not prying into your business but how do companies like TTH sell at those prices if there's so little mark up? Do they buy in bigger volume and get a bigger discount? Does Kadee use distributors or do you deal with them direct. I love their products and think they are the standard by which all others are measured. On the other hand I think the 40 dollar range is a little steep for the covered and open hoppers. They don't seem to sell as well as the boxcars do. I wish Kadee sucess and to keep offering more great models. MIke J
