Its going okay so far. Better then i expected it to be going at least, especially in these economic hard times.... Im greatful for the business i have right now. Most of the stuff ive sold and ordered has been for forum members and buddies lol. Havnt had any orders go through my website yet. Its just really hard to start out, and getting your name out there is the hardest part.....
Walthers is a great company though, and there very helpful and easy to deal with, quick order filling, and fast shipping (at least to dealers, cant say how there shipping is otherwise because i never ordered direct from Walthers before i was a dealer). Hopefully i can get the Athearn Line soon here. Im also looking to get the Micro Trains, and Exact Rail lines, as well as Atlas in the near future.

Walthers is the best, I think.
Never had a problem with them, if something was delivered damaged, short orders, and especially the fast delivery.
If they had a problem, either with something out of stock, or they had made a mistake(once..they found out, before the order arrived at my house)they actually called me to tell me. Can't beat that.

I've used Walthers on a personal note and they are great.The turn around time from when they recieved
my order to delivery is quick and if I have any questions about anything weather I call it in or E-mail they
they are just as fast

Might want to add the scale to the item title and description of your items, as you never mention it except for the two Proto loco listings.
The only way I could tell what scale an item was was to look at what category you had listed the item in.
And congrats on the new business, just getting around to catching up on the news!
