Deluxe Innovation Covered Hoppers

Can someone explain why one Deluxe Innovation Wabash covered hopper costs $12.44 and another costs $37.32.  Why the price difference on the same car?

I'd guess, since $37.32 divided by 3 is $12.44, that the higher priced one is a three pack.

That is correct....  I am currently looking for some cheap ones to strip and rebuild as ex-EL ballast cars.

Makes sense.  The ones I were looking at didn't mention it was a 3 pack.  I'm waiting for the Reading ones and I'll pick up a couple.

I wish KATO would do an open side version of their
hopper....I can barely even look at the Deluxe version.

It's about the easiest conversion you can do, and all the detail is already there when you open it up.
