We used to live in Springfield, so our visit last month was a stop in to an old haunt. It's not in…read morethe most frequented strip of businesses, but this is nice for parking purposes. Free and ample parking for everyone! We were happily surprised to find the store larger than it used to be. They finished an expansion this last fall that allowed them to expand space for large board game tournaments and swaps. Really love the board game library free to play from as well. Plenty of space to bring friends and hang out. The friendly cashier mentioned that they are working on a partnership with the local Whimsy Tea Company to serve their DnD themed teas in the shop while folks are playing. This shop has almost everything you could want in the way of games, supplies and figurines and all at great prices. Games are sold at or below MSRP which makes the choice easy to support them. Stuff on Amazon is rarely cheaper. We bought a small card game for some friends and went on our way, but this shop will always be a stop for us while we are in Springfield.

The employee seemed to think such an question was beneath them, as they told me I had to look it up on their TCG player site. Yet, they didn't give me any info on how to find their page. I was driving by the next day and thought I'd give them a second chance. I stopped in and they again refused to be of any help, only directing me to their online TCG site. I am so glad this is not my local game store! Terrible customer service and an absolutely shameful embarrassment to the gaming community!!!

I have had an account for 11 years with Horizon Hobby,…read morealways paid my bills on Time.was waiting for B/O Trains to Come in. They said I had not bought Anything in 6- Months but I could not Even explain why! I had an accident and Broke 5,6,7, 8 Ribs on my left side. They Didn't care they locked my account and Said you will need to reapply. That's just Crazy not even a call just shut me off after years of buy stuff. There prices have gotten higher and inventory is real low on Train items. If it's not in stock you can't buy it, but Even my customer B/O are gone now. There policy should be to call or Email First before just shutting and account Down for short inactivity. Sad that a big Company like Horizon could care less. There Train supply is going out the Window so you lost a very good customer. I'm very disappointed with them

I went to A&R Paints & Crafts on a Saturday looking for a RC helicopter. I really didn't know…read moreexactly what I needed to get or really what I wanted. When I walked in the door I was promptly greeted by the owner who was very friendly. He asked me if I needed any help. After I told him I was interested in a RC helicopter he asked me several questions about what I wanted to do with said helicopter. After he showed me several model and options, he then let me test fly them. What kind of store nowadays lets you test something out before you buy? I quickly learned that flying a RC helicopter requires a lot of skill that I currently don't have so I decided to wait to determine what I really wanted. I will definitely be back here to buy when I'm ready. P.S. during my research of trying to determine which route to go I discovered A&R Paints & Crafts' prices are the same or better than most on-line retailers. This proves why you should shop local.
