I was in there today and not a single person asked if i needed help. They dont carry nothing but…read moretraxxas and arma parts. They are more worried about racing then helping the customer. The store reeked of weed and the parts guy was so high all he cared about is the music playing. They don't have any crawler parts, no accessories for scale trucks. The customer service is horrible, Parts and Ready to run trucks were very limited. the staff only knew about drag and carpet racing cars. The race track is very well taken care of, to bad the rest of the store is some shit!

As an avid pokemon TCG collector, I've always wanted to check this place out, but despite living…read moreonly 10 minutes always, it took me 2 years to finally be able to come through and I enjoyed my visit. It's certainly a smaller local game store and prices are hit or miss. In regard to Pokemon, they sell booster boxes (English and Japanese), booster packs, special edition boxes, and single cards and graded singles. Now I compared the singles to the current market price and they are definitely around there or cheaper. However, the booster boxes and packs are a little more expensive than what you would find online, but probably that's due to additional costs of overhead running a store. For example, they were selling a Japanese 151 booster box for $178 when you can easily get one online for around $145-150. The singles collection was pretty diverse and if you're into that, definitely worth coming to look. The staff working there was really chill. He even said he will buy your sealed product, but it would be at 80% of market price so that's an option to sell here for quick cash. Overall a unique experience and enjoyed seeing other Pokemon enthusiasts immersed in the card game.

Hobby Lobby is one of those comfort shopping experiences that cater to a plethora of different…read moreneeds and interests. I recently moved back to Summerville so I made the trip to North Charleston to get a few items. Overall this is pretty much like any other Hobby Lobby with one exception, which I'll bury somewhere in here if you keep reading. Walking in a week after the doors were unlocked for the general public, the experience is almost exactly similar to all other Hobby Lobby's; the space wide open yet filled with shelves of knick-knacks, art supplies, nostalgic themed items and many other items. The place is very clean and sterile while being well stocked and thoughtfully displayed, playing on the casual shoppers innate impulse shopping with "Oh I might need that one day" mentality. Therein lies my personal weakness as I headed back to the front to grab a cart to load up with items, I really didn't need but I could justify in my mind. I could drag the review out but, it's Hobby Lobby and you know what you're getting. Clean and safe stores with all sorts of items, and generally good employees. But that is one of the flaws of this particular store, the people were slow to respond and weren't well trained as they seemed to be missing a clue or two. While I'm ignorant of the inner workings I'd wager management isn't exactly up to par here. That said for the general public I don't think that would be an issue, just my knit picking. I'll end my review with it's not a bad store and it just needs a little TLC in terms of customer relations. Stop on by and take some time to relax and walk around a little and enjoy life while shopping.

Good hobby shop for RC Cars. I'm a model builder, and it is nice to have a dependable place nearby…read morefor paints and supplies. Friendly people here, too!

I'm going to start by saying that RC is not my interest so I can't speak that part of the store…read more My interest is scale model kits and Xtreme carries model kits that you can't find anywhere else in this area. I know Hobby Lobby sells models and has a 40% off sale every 3 weeks but it's mostly the same kits on the shelf and they phased out Tamiya products which I enjoy using and building. Tamiya, besides RC, is one of the top companies when it comes to scale models and this store carries their kits and paint and if there is something from Tamiya you want, they will be happy to get it for you. So, I am in agreement with Jeff W. of Hanahan, don't bother with reading the negative reviews. I have been in the store many times and have not had any bad experiences and it's my opinion that the negative reviews do not accurately reflect this business.

My only complaint is that if…read moreyou're into N scale model trains, they don't have much of a selection, but if you're into HO scale, they've got you covered. I know that HO is the most popular, but there are also a lot of N scale enthusiasts too. Please carry more N scale items!
