WELCOME TO THE SEARCH PAGE:
TO THE LEFT ARE THE PRODUCT CATEGORIES - Hover over each to see what each addreviation means.
ABOVE ARE THE SEARCHABLE FIELDS. YOU CAN SEARCH BY JUST ONE FIELD OR MULTIPLE FIELDS.
BY PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
JUST TYPE IN A BRIEF DESCRIPTION. (DO NOT GET TO SPECIFIC HERE. USE GENERALITIES LIKE ROUNDHOUSE AND/OR SCALE AND/OR MANUFACTURER)
*BRH DOES NOT CREATE THE DESCRIPTIONS. THEY ARE CREATED BY THE MANUFACTURERS.
EXAMPLE: ROUNDHOUSE MAY BE ABBREVIATED AS RNDHSE OR UNION PACIFIC MAY BE UP.
BY PART NUMBER
(WE USE WALTHERS PART / ITEM NUMBERS AND SOME ALTERNATE NUMBERS THAT OTHER WEBSITES USE)
*IF A PART NUMBER HAS A DASH IN IT, REMOVE THE DASH.
EXAMPLE: 30-12345 WOULD BE 3012345. IN THIS EXAMPLE ACTUAL FULL PART NUMBER WOULD BE 381-3012345. THE 381- IDENTIFIES THE MANUFACTURER AS KATO IN THIS CASE.
*IF YOU HAVE A PART NUMBER AND IT IS NOT RETURNING ANY RESULTS, TRY SHORTENING THE NUMBER
EXAMPLE: 3012345 WOULD BE 30123. WHICH SHOULD RETURN RESULTS FOR OTHER ITEMS IN THAT SERIES OF PART NUMBERS
ANOTHER ISSUE ARE PART NUMBERS WITH A "0" IN FRONT LIKE 012354.
EXAMPLE: 012354 WOULD THEN BE 12354.
IF NO RESULTS ARE RETURNED THERE COULD BE SEVERAL REASONS:
1- THE PART NUMBER IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR SALE
2- THE PART NUMBER HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED
3- THE PART NUMBER IS TOTALLY INCORRECT OR DOES NOT MATCH ANY THING IN OUR DATABASE. IN THIS CASE TRY USING THE DESCRIPTION OR A KEYWORD.
YOU CAN ALSO SEARCH VIA THE MANUFACTURER ID NUMBER:
FOR EXAMPLE:
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR WALTHERS CORNERSTONE USE THE MANUFACTURER PREFIX NUMBER. IN THIS CASE 933-
JUST PUT THAT NUMBER IN THE SEARCH FIELD AND ALL OF THE WALTHERS CORNERSTONE ITEM WILL SHOW IN THE RESULTS.
BY CATEGORY

A LIST OF POTENTIAL SUB CATEGORIES WITH THE CATEGORY.

TYPE IN "TI" IN THE FIELD AND THE SYSTEM WILL AUTMOCATICALLY GO TO THE TICHY TRAIN GROUP.
CLICK ON THE NAME OF THE MANUFACTURER AND YOU WILL ACCESS JUST THAT MANUFACTURERS INFO

Minimum Order Quantity | In the item description field it is noted what the minimum order number/amount is for this particular product. If you order 1 when the minimum order is 6, your order will be changed to a quantity of 6. If it is minimum order of 12 and your order 1, your order will be changed to a quantity of 12. And so on. This is done because many items we sell, such as scale lumber, come in packs of 25 or 50 and these packs can not be broken and shipped or sold in smaller quantities. The change in quantity does not update on the shopping cart. It is updated when your order is placed for "picking" to fill the order. You will not be notified if you order incorrectly. Any returns under this scenario would require a 20% restock fee and require an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) before the items can be returned. |
