This place has a great selection of model kits and RC equipment. It's impossible to beat the price of their paints and I make the trip at least once a month to check what's new! Overall I'd say completely disregard any negative reviews because when I mentioned the reviews he explained that the previous owners ran the poor shop into the ground and were super rude. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the trip to Central Carolina hobbies and support local!!

These used to be $9.99 each and now they are $12.99 each in the store. We had seen them on the app…read moreas buy one for $4.99 online or in store get BOGO with price at $9.99. So we grabbed 2. I asked the manager filling balloons as we got the the self serve island of trust. You are your own cashier here. They don't want to pay cashiers. But anyways - there is a manager filling balloons. I ask if they will price match their own app and she says yes, and then pawned me off to another employee. Still fine. The price came up as $11.69 each on sale from $12.99. Then bOGO. But it's annoying you pay $1.69 more at this location than the app says it should be. I explained the coupon to the employee and suddenly the manager is interested. She says what is the deal again and I explained it again, it's directly from their app, and she's like is that a screenshot? I said yes because the Internet in here is terrible. She then says I need you to pull it up on the app. I'm like OK but your Internet's terrible so my wife does pulls it up on the app shows her exactly what the screenshot shows, where online the frame would be $4.99 in store. You have to buy two to buy them as a buy one get one for $9.99. I mean if you're gonna treat me like a criminal like I'm trying to steal $1.69 remember it's in a store with no cashiers where you're literally self servicing each of your items as your own employee because they don't wanna do it. I already hate Michael's now because their product qualities has gone way down and the prices have gone way up. I'll give an example as their picture frames. The hardware and backing on them is the lowest quality and typically will break off and is not even really on. It's kind of glued or haphazard attached to whatever you're inserting into the back of the frame. This location does so poor that they still have a ton of Christmas stuff on mega clearance. They can't get rid of because there's hardly anybody that shops here - the store is in disarray. It's gotten kind of dirty, even though it's not that old and it's just not fun to shop here. We hardly ever come here - we'd rather go to Hobby lobby. I said to the manager after we paid that people don't like it when the app has a cheaper price then online and then I try to explain it to her and she acts like I'm trying to get one over on them again for $1.69. I said I would leave it in my YELP review. They both actually laughed at me as I was leaving. Take note MICHAEL - there was like nine people in the store. It cannot be affordable to have people just not shop here anymore because your product qualities is low. Your stores are a mess. Your prices are high and your employees just aren't very nice and hardly any of them work there. Crafts are fun. Shopping at Michael's is not fun. A lot of craft items are supposed to be affordable cause you know - you're crafting - somebody should tell MICHAEL. I know I'm not the only one that feels this way because it's always empty. I really used to love Michael's back in the day. Not sure what happened. They've lost their way. Again, you tried to overcharge me $1.69 and then made me feel like I was trying to get one over on you all while I'm doing self checkout. maybe having a darn employee help somebody - silly. Pic of coupon included - left agitated.

All the equipment is from top-notch manufacturers: Walthers, Atlas, Lionel, MTH, and many more. For other hobbies, they have a selection of model planes, ships, and cars. They even have models from movies: Star Trek, Star Wars, and all the figurine models from the classic horror shows. They also stock rpg materials, and a variety of paints, glues, and tools for every enthusiast. A decent selection of Estes rockets and kits, engine motors, and launch equipment round out the interests. In fact, every square inch of available space is utilized, without appearing cluttered or over-packed. Service was also top-notch, as the store assistants were well-versed on the tools, equipment and various hobby interests. Finally, the prices were good value for your money. And they have a thriving mail-order business, too! I will return in the future. Two thumbs up and five stars!
