My wife always seems to have a wish list of seven or eight Arttista figures she wants for her side of the layout but we can never find all that she wants at any dealer website and do not want to order from Arttista because they charge like $9 per figure that is sold for $6 through one of their dealers. Ordering from multiple dealers is not a good option because the shipping minimum is usually around $10. So, what we want is a dealer who will order what we want from Arttista and then ship us the whole order at once. Thanks.

I bought some at the last Big E train show, but do not remember the prices. Arttista figures are excellent quality but not cheap IMO. Arnold
Arttista's prices are about or exactly the same what my dealer charges (Nicholas Smith)...I am looking at Arttista's prices list right now. Figures with tools, animals, chairs, etc. will cost more than a figure that is by itself.
Try Crusader Services.

www.modeltrainstuff.com They have a good selection with good pricing.
I've bought a considerable amount of Artista figures over the years ... some directly from Artista, and others from Crusader Rail Hobbies ( at shows ), modeltrainstuff.com, Engine House Hobbies, and Harrison Trains ( when they were in business ) ... and yes Artista figures are great quality and of course commensurate with quality is price.

They have close to 500 on their site and you can sort by in/out of stock. Great discount as well. Just set up my wishlist last weekend and the wife went shopping cyber Monday.
JPS,
I found this great site Xtrains Model Train Supplies for a couple that have a large stock and variety of O scale Arttista figures. I also like their site because it tells you how many they have in stock - none of this nonsense where you find out an item is unavailable only at checkout, grrrrr. Pricing is very good, shipping is fast and modest. Brought from them several times this year already, one purchase from them below. Very pleased.

Tom, that’s a really nice scene with a lot of attention to detail. I’ve had a couple of Berkshire Valley cash registers for years. About time I painted one and get it placed in my cafe. Great use of wall signage as well.
