They Need More Hobby Shops In NC ... They Are Few And Far Between

Nice shop, thanks for sharing Tim..........I seen some of the vendors bringing stuff in today for the show tomorrow.........gonna be a good show with good deals......

It used to be Hobby Villa

We can't thank you enough for showcasing our store! Absolutely amazing video! I've checked out some of your other content and I must say I'm very impressed! Thank you for supporting us!

Belle vidéo 👌 😉. Très beau magasin de maquettes. Super 👌. Incroyable tous ces modèles. Super 👌 👍 😉 🇺🇸 🇫🇷

I’ve been in and out of the hobby several times but always kept up to what’s goin on in the hobby

Nice shop thanks for the tour good selection, have a great weekend 🙂

And unfortunately that’s why hobby shops go under the prices you pay the high price and then the markups for the rent of the building and utilities and so the owners can make money for more product and make a living. It looks good in that shop but it only be around for about r years and go belly up. With the current economy people need money for food and other bills instead of hobbies. Sad but it’s true

34.95 now days for the kit not including paint glue. I’m here in Western Pa and hit the model isles all the time and certainly pass every time I remember models back when I was a kid “80s” kits were only 6.95 lol.

Buddy that hobby shops go under isn’t going to last too long them prices are ridiculous. I would visit it once and probably go back to shopping on the internet.

Nice new shop, with many things not seen everywhere. Have to agree we need more hobby stores, I'm traveling too far but I refuse to buy on eBay or Amazon. I won't be enticed by the 20% off on plastic model kits however. I just bought a Buick Riviera for $28.99 and ''55 Chevy Nomad for $29.99, and a Pontiac Catalina for $29.99 in the past month, at the hobby shop I frequent. I'm seeing $32.99/$32.99/$34.99 respectively for those same kits in this new store. I'm waiting on a Kenworth cabover I ordered that is going to cost $47, not the $73.99 I saw on the KW kit in the KY store. Even if I lived closer there, the 20% off is not moving the needle for me, sorry. Plus, Hobby Lobby and Oillie's carry some of those kits. Pricing must be more competitive, just saying.

A New hobby shop is a good news . Thanks to show

Thanks for sharing! It's always a great idea to shop and support your local businesses. I've been going to the same hobby shop in Northridge, California since 1976.

I’m fortunate to still have a HobbyTown USA here in Mobile. I used to be into R/C airplanes, big time. But I was more of a kit builder. All the foam and electric power turned me off. I hope they’re able to draw enough business to survive. Peace and love.

Nice video. Amazes me how manufacturers plan on production, not to mention distribution. This is a golden age of kit building.... yet I never see teenagers looking at kits? Please support your local hobby shop. These guys went out on a limb and of course RC rules the roost. An active RC community is a must for any hobby shop to survive. I so miss my local shop which was anchored by an 8 lane twentyfourth scale high bank slot car track.

Very cool I wish you could get them up here in glens falls new York thay would be the only rc shop in 50 miles of us. There money to be made up here.

How much for that Arizona ship model

Nice selection of kits! Thanks for sharing this Tim.

I live in the Rochester NY region, home of the original Performance Hobbies. It's a great store, well-run and well-stocked, with 20% off for kits. I'm sure Performance Hobbies South will be the same -- your hobby shop of choice. Congrats.

Looks like a nice place.
Wonder if they are opening one in New Jersey or NYC ?
Lots of great selection .

Great!!

hi Tim... i have a store just like that near me... thx 4 the tour... vinny

This is awesome news. It's always great for all of us when a new hobby shop opens up. Even if we don't live near it.

Once again Tim, thank you for your relentless efforts in to keeping the hobby alive! My model building is temporarily on hold until I complete some home projects.
You have again inspired me to go and make a purchase at my local hobby shop! If I had a YT channel it would be named "Too Much Kits, Not Enough Time". Thanks again,
As always, keep the glue bottle upright!

Was just there. Fantastic place. Got 2 models and some Tamiya paint. Time to build.

So good to see!

any serious modeller should try at least 1 'real grade' gundam, just to appreciate the engineering that
goes into those things.

Any Trains

Where are you located

Thanks for the walk thru Tim, great that a new hobby shop opened considering many are closing.😮

Very cool little shop. All we have around here is hobby town and hobby lobby.

Awesome Tim!! Ryan is an awesome guy, his dad Tom owns Performance Hobbies here in Webster, Ny. I was just there today getting some things lol Tom said you did a video there so I definitely had to come and check your video out, thanks for doing the video for Ryan!

My wallet can’t handle it. I’m like a kid on Christmas. I want, I want , I want. So much cool stuff. Thanks for the view.

Unfortunately too many Hobby Shops have closed over the years. So it's always an exciting time to see one open up!! 👍🙂👍
