vimana Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Scalehobbyist is great. They have a good selection and usually their prices are the best. I only buy from other stores if Scalehobbyist doesn't have what I want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scapilot Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I don't understand why folks would go anywhere else for kits. Shipping can take a few days at times, but if it's something that you're not in a dire need for right now, then that's irreleveant. What I love the most is that their shipping tops out at ten bucks, whether you order one kit, or 40. That in itself in untouchable. Compare their rates with other popular online stores, and you'll wonder how the other guys haven't gone out of business yet. The downside is that they don't carry a lot of aftermarket stuff from the smaller vendors, but they have recently started opening up to some new stuff, and they seem to be capitilizing well on it. As was stated before, it's the only place I go to shop for kits, and supplies. Hands down the best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor01 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 If I order on Monday I get it Friday. They're east coast I'm west coast. No complaints. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achterkirch Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 Sweet! I ordered tamiya a new F-16 and hasegawa's ANG F-16A ADF twin pack. I should get it in a few days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GEH737 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 My "go to" online place for paint especially. I'm in a spot that doesn't have much locally - really glad to have found Scalehobbist :) Hitch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jinxter13 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) First option Sprue Bros, second option Scale Hobbyist, sometimes first option..mostly when Sprue Bros doesn't have it, or is out of it; if I lived on the other coast or closer to it, SH would be my first option. However; Gordon and the kids have such great service it's hard too not go there, not to mention their inventory...WOW!!!. I have never been disappointed with Scale Hobbyist ;) .

jinmmydel Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yup. Scale Hobbyist is great. Their prices usually can't be beat on kits or paint. If they stocked Gunze and the same array of aftermarket as Sprue Brothers I'd never use anyone else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they stocked Gunze and the same array of aftermarket as Sprue Brothers I'd never use anyone else. Agreed. I can't fathom how it is that squadron, and a few others manage to keep selling kits with the differences in the prices that they're asking. Squadron really kind of being the worst. The only good thing I had left going for them was their huge Christmas discounts, but this past year, they failed miserably to have anything in stock, so yeah, you could save a ton of money....if you were willing to pick through the leftovers they had left to shop with. So that pretty much sealed my fate with Squadron. I do go through Spruebrothers simply because they're the main source of aftermarket, but their prices on kits aren't any better than squadron's. While I do appreciate expediate service, I can wait a day or so longer if it means I'm paying much less for a product. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
