Sounds like a good way to go out of business to me!

Depends how much they were charging to start with! Maybe it is like those electrical shops which offer a huge discount, but on some spurious price supposedly once offered for 28 days at their Rockall branch.
30% of what?
Maybe it is like
Ah the Rockall branch - bought my Puffin Billy there
Did Bachmann have a stock take week recently - perhaps someone found a huge pile of boxes in the corner labeled "Deliveries For Low Volume Outlets - Non Urgent".
Cheers, Simon
There's f*ck all on Rockall.

30% off extortionate
Might make the prices more like the model shops but I doubt it
Guano make you an offer you can't refuse... Brian
Well my local(ish) Hobbycraft normally charges list price for toy train stuff, as does the remaining local model shop. :-/
The local model shop maybe open to negotiation on big ticket items though.

Why, it probably means they are still getting 30%!
