Let's turn this argument around and say that we are concerned about  
quality issues from our S scale manufacturers because, aside for the  
inconvenience and annoyance to the consumer, we are concerned with  
their survival.  Over the past 18 months we've had a new club member  
in this area who has purchased over $3,000 in locomotives from a major  
manufacturer.  Each and every item received was missing some kind of  
part (many times whole sprues), had broken parts or had some  
mechanical or wiring defect.  Each time the manufacturer had to send a  
second shipment of missing or replacement parts.  I can't imagine what  
all that extra UPS shipping add up to.  Probably 6 to 8 extra  
shipments plus the extra parts.  All preventable with a little QC.   
Not a way to stay in business.
