Parabat Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Recommendations for what?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Baker Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Googling shows a few places, but from what I can tell most are geared more toward R/C stuff. I've not made it up to the Raleigh area so I haven't looked for any hobby shops around there. I know there's a Hobby Town in Greensboro, which is to the west of Raleigh, but beyond that, I can't help much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JRobinsonUSAF Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Go ahead and make the trip to Fayetteville and visit Hayes Hobby House. You will not be disappointed! http://www.hayeshobby.com/ JR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Baker Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Had a chance to visit Hayes a few years ago, and it was mind blowing. One of the best hobby shops I've ever been in. Definitely haven't ever seen a shop w/ as much aftermarket parts as they had. I could have stayed for hours looking through everything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Recommendations for what?! He's looking for hobbyshops in Raleigh, North Carolina. Here's a tip for everyone. If you are looking for something are asking a question, make sure that your subject is either in your Topic title, or in your post. If you put it in the Topic description only, people who use a mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc) won't have a clue what you are talking about, since the topic description doesn't show on the mobile version of the forums.

Thank you . Yes, I was looking for a model shop in Raleigh, NC. but looks like a big NO . I have heard of the shop in Fayetteville and I look forward to that one when I can go there but this is part of a business trip so I'm not sure there will be time for the extra travel.

Chris L Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) I am happy to announce that I was able to visit the Hayes Hobby house this weekend ! Thank you very much for the recommendation and I wish to say that it was well worth the drive. The owner and all their help demonstrated a lot of enthusiasm and knowledge concerning the hobbies represented in the store . This is not the norm in places that sell modeling items anymore and it was a very nice experience. I also found their prices to be very friendly. I highly recommend this place for a visit or simply to mail order items. I believe you will be pleased . Regards, Christian Edited May 5, 2015 by Chris L Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Another great model shop in Fayetteville is Hobbit Hobby, on Yadkin road. Quite a varied selection and good rrreference materials, paints etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
