Unfortunately, Menards does not sell wholesale to retailers. We have to buy it
direct just as anyone else does. The only break we get is when we buy the bulk
packs of items for resale, but that never happens with buildings. Thanks for
the mention.

I wonder if Russell can get the buildings for a "good price" since the store
sells Menard's stuff.

Perhaps just like the track plan we can come up with a template for the
buildings and roads etc. so we can have a standard set up for this layout.

I have the " Grandpa's House" which was on the corner of my module at the
GBGH. I like the quality.
Wally has a good point about packaging. The club has a lot of foam left over in
the trailer from the train box orders. Perhaps we can use that to protect the
buildings.
Go for it.

Jack, I have 3 items - the train shed, the station and Morton Salt. I think
they’re excellent value for the money. My only complaint is that the packaging
is flimsy clear plastic, designed to display the product on a shelf and not to
continually box and unbox it like a modular group will do.

The buildings look pretty good from afar. Has anyone bought these and liked
them?
