agreed . The closest store to me has recently has 2x what they had a year ago. But ony carry testors paints,no styrene or tubing . But as the last few years we had a big drop in kits and stores. Luckly the hobby shop I was saying that increased its stock started out as a baseball card shop in the late 80s,then in the 90s moved to video games to now a full on hobby shop. Only due to the owners sone being a model freak. Now if I could get him to sell sheets and rods of styrene .
