MTF is MTF Discount Warehouses. They are based in BC, Canada.
They have 5 Stores in the Lower Mainland and 3 more in the Okanagan area.

But I don't know what MTF stands for. Maybe Mike, Tom and Frank ??

So you didn't say which brand of models, these liquidator guys usually go through inventory obtained from closing stores, distributors or manufacturers or overstock cost recovery from similar sources, Lots of the Hawk Lindberg stuff has been moving/moved through this channel in the US as they seem to be all but done, there was a lot of this at Ollie's, another liquidator. Anything else would likely indicate they ran across some store or distributor inventory.

Ollies first advertized the Lindberg kits as "surplus from a warehouse fire" but we all know Lindberg just dumped overstock that they ambitiously produced. I was at Ollies in Pottstown PA last week and they still had inventory! Must've been a big load of stuff!

I wish some of these great deals would come to our area. It's pretty rural and people really don't have much to do around here.
