Has anyone ever heard of bought items by menards? I saw some stuff on ebay. Then did a search. Found the website. Lots of rolling stock, anyway. Is it a good brand? Anyone have any problems with them. I'd like to get a couple flats to mount Sherman tanks, a couple jeeps, half tracks, and ambulances to and it looks like they have what I'm looking for. Any and all input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Save your self some money goto www.menards.com in the search type O gauge trains. the ones on the bay are buying the items and cranking up the price
The items are decent. I have had no problems with them
Mark @ Menard's is on this forum everyday.......not sure how you have missed the multiple topics. Go back and find some of these post for others opinions and reviews. I will say everything I have bought from them was great with equal customer service.
Do a search, maybe reviews and pictures.
Good stuff for the price.
Yeah I've seen a bunch of stuff on EBay from Menards from some jackwagon that just jacks the price up for a resell. Go to Menards and you'll get a better deal more than likely. Even if the price is a little higher, they usually have a freebie they throw in with every item bought!
Sign up for the emails from Menards. You'll hear about every item on the day it is released.
You might want to spend a little more time on the forum, too. Menards products have been discussed so frequently here it would be impossible to miss at least one posting in any week.
Also, before inquiring with a new post, you might want to learn to use the search function within the forum, or even a Google search, which certainly would have led you to forum posts and Menards' website.
I have been very satisfied with their products. On one occasion I had to call customer support and it took all of 5 minutes and they sent a replacement car that same day. Their buildings are really a great buy and highly detailed. I don't think you will be disappointed.

I have bought a hopper and a boxcar. Both of the have worked really well. I just hope Menards will do some Southern Pacific railroad equipment.
