    Who Is Building A Railflyer?

    Supplier Josh, Actually when you consider that our shipping costs on this item are less than Micro Mark then you are not really saving ten dollars. I want to get paid for my efforts but I can be very honest in saying the margin in the MSRP does not go a long way when you factor in all of...

    Border Guys, Remember border delays are an issue. Its costing both sides around 14 billion dollars a year. Its easier and cheaper to get a shipment from China than one across the border. No reason for this waste. We got your back in places like Afghanistan but your "excited" politicians...

    Mailing From Canada Josh, We send via Canada Post. We do not have great shipping options in our area. UPS, Fed Ex, DHL all charge additional fees that usually total close to the amount of your order for brokerage, out of area delivery etc, even though the transit times are the same for...

    Couplers Guys, One thing you can do is email these companies, a percieved demand will do more to get these things out quicker. Please note: The coupler pocket cover is a press fit. I placed the pin where it would likely be the best place for a custom made coupler to fit properly...
