One day I'll have a coal mine at one end of the layout and the docks at the other.
So why do I want to run a Shinkansen down a South Wales mineral line?
Hi All
All this proves that you can't please everybody. Personally, I think that mail order in a week is good. I live 15 miles from any town and no model shops with a comprehensive stock anyway. Being able to do something on the www at any time of any day and get the results via the postie is a godsend.
You also have to look at the total package. I used Hattons to buy something for £15 that was £30 in a model shop.

I've used Hattons before, and have just orderd a Heljan Hymek from them. Last time I ordered on the weekend, got the stuff the next Friday which was pretty good.
They do have good prices, take the Q1 for example the price from Hattons INCLUDING the postage was cheaper then the "priviledge" price of a rival seller, whose normal selling price, although cheaper than RRP (slightly) was about £10 more. To a lesser extent the same can be said for the 50, I paid £2 less at Hattons than this other seller's "priv" price.
I must add that my only connection to Hattons is as a satisfied customer, one who has returned to them.

Shop-around and check-out what they're offering......the goods are the same, it's only the service and/or back-up which detracts and deters.....

I have to say that as a satisfied customer purely, I now buy all my RTR stuff from Hattons based on price and service. It has not been all smooth sailing but is generally pretty good compared to another place I have dealt with but am reluctant to any more. Highlights:
I would prefer not to name the 'other place' as others I know have been happy with them and they have their redeeming features but I now have a policy of buying things primarily from Hattons.
And no, obviously I am not an employee of theirs (long way to go to work if I was...8^)
