OUR currency is being devalued to the point of being almost worthless! I remember being in Italy back in the 70's and seeing prices while window shopping in the thousands of Lira. Not long after that - the Government dropped a couple of zeros and magicly that 179,000 Lira pair of shoes was "ONLY" 17.90 ? How does that happen - lol.
Even if you want a single car "Single Cars Minimum order of two cars required. Road numbers are chosen at random."
Depends on what a person wants, Rapido has the best details on their offerings. I just wish more was in my time period.

A fellow truck guy owns Burlington Junction Hobbies. I asked him to check into prices for us. He is a Rapido dealer. He will let me know if he can do better.
The price of having goods made in China has been increasing. One of the reasons is that the workers are demanding (and getting) higher wages. It's a cycle that's been repeated before with other countries: Japan, Korea, and now China. Mfg is already starting to migrate to the "next" affordable country of significance.
I saw a link to this video. Love the cat video bomb. Looks like they are shipping, but no idea when they will make it out. No Frisco cars in the video, but they do have them. Cars look great, but I nearly fainted when I saw the price. I have Accurail and Ertl USRA DS cars; they'll have to do.
