Matt,
Are you buying a car or just trains?:)

What are two things you see before buying a car.

A dealership.


Adverts.

I checked CTT they are Lantz's Hobby shop.

They are a Lionel service station.


I can tell you they do exist and appear legit.

Is there apprehension? Or just fishing for a story?

Anyway that's the first two things I think of when shopping online.
The third is a sleazy web page. They have a nice one with a good price on their books. Greenberg service manual $20. I may get it just for another
reference.
The fourth is a street address.

Has anyone had any experience with "Wholesaletrains.com"? I welcome any feedback, good or bad as I am considering a purchase. I will anxiously await any response.:confused:
Yes what are you planning on getting?

Most likely they are a reputable seller.

Where are you located? Don't you have any hobby shops around?
Most likely you could get a better deal with them as you save on the shipping.

T....? Where did you see the manual? I couldn't pull it up. Just curious I won't buy it.:laugh:

Yes I am considering buying a train from them. The reason for my question is that I saw on another forum some mixed reviews about them, but alot of those reviews came from people buying RC equipment.

Wholesale site has a book section. I went to Lionel first. Then to books. They were just for Lionel. By doing that I may have narrowed down the selection.
