Hobby and model stores use wholesale companies that give them discounts for building materials like adhesives, woods, and paints. Many hobby and model construction supply wholesalers also sell other products that hobbyists will enjoy, like miniature military figures, crafts, radio parts, and model building kits that can be used to make cars, trains, houses, ships, rockets, and airplanes. If you need to find a dealer that can supply you with a variety of hobby and model products at a cheap price, then you will need to know how to decide which ones have the right products and prices for you. First, write down a few names and numbers that you find in your online directory so you can keep the information organized. Contact the first company and ask them about the products that they sell. Ask them if they have commercial construction materials that can be used to build miniature cars, trains, and houses. Be sure they have woods, paints, and adhesives as well as full model kits, and ask them if they have books that give instructions for the building process. Ask the dealers what manufacturers supply them with their products. You will want to find a wholesaler that has a connection to a well known manufacturer because they usually make the most durable items. Now that you know what products the company can supply you with, ask them to give you a price quote for the hobby and model construction supplies that you need. This will make it easy for you to compare their discounts.
