Exactly and that's the whole point I'm talking about. What Trinity is doing basically lowered the street price and sell more motors. IMO, it's hurting all the local hobby shops. Sure you can buy Monster from Tower for $27.99 but it's not quite the same when the mfg. have it listed for $28.99 ... so, what's the MSRP there for? I'll just tell the store owner to bring in other brands like Orion, Check Point, Team Brood and avoid any brand that's not supporting the LHS.
