Eighteen  
pages and not a thing that I want/need.  Perhaps I'm simply overstocked or the slow pace of product releases is finally catching up...

I just went through all the pages. NOTE - page 12 says the listing has ended, but pages 13-18 load properly.

I found a few things that are interesting. Probably won't order anything, though.


Hmm... when Kiz and I
go to a nice restaurant,
he won't order anything
for me either...


Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

They never are.  Even HO, G, O, S, etc. 

It's not a N bias.

I dunno, some of those are cheaper at MB Klien...

Also, if you set the display to 300 items per page, its only a page and half

The Walther's sale flyer isn't meant to compete with hobby shops, be it online or off.

Geez, I didn't know it was legal to sell something like that.


Hmm... what'll I do with
the 20 sets I bought...?

Funny,
I got '60-3754 Chernobyl bus stop' and then '60-3754 Seated "Zombie Apocolypse" victims' as the descripion when I looked them up...

The only really good discounts I see from Walthers are in their printed flyers which they mail to me every couple of months (or is it monthly?).  Those sometimes (but not very often) have some truly mind-boggling bargains.

FWIW, their Difco dumpers are going for cheap. Many are marked as discontinued, so may as well get them while they're still available, before the eBayers start charging double list for OOP stuff.
