Default Buying model cars

I have bought a lot of models through e-Bay - just type in "Cobra" under "Toys & Hobbies". I also attend a lot of car shows - many have a swap meet, and, often you can find some model cars there. Whenever I travel out of town, for buiness or pleasure, I scan through the local yellow pages for hobby shops, and try to visit as many as I can - especially the smaller, non chain shops, which may have some old product around. With Mapquest, Google or Yahoo Maps, you can even prep ahead of time with a map showing hobby shops (with addresses, phone numbers, and distance) near whatever location you will be visiting.

regards,

Jeff
