The great buys are on Craigslist.

Charlie,There are folks on e-Bay that must win at all costs regardless if the bids shoots above their MSRP..
I seen a Bev-Bell/Athearn 50' boxcar lettered for St.Lawrence Railroad sell for around $25.00..I bought one recently for $9.95 BIN with free shipping that had KDs and metal wheels. I normally don't pay that much for a use car but,it brought a end to a long "treasure" hunt that stretched over several train shows over the past 10 years and the price was acceptable under my personal e-Bay guide lines.
My best deals has been BIN prices and I avoid bidding..
What I don't like about Craigslist is the possibility of walking into a robbery. That has happen several times here in Ohio in 2014.
