CeCe offers Wednesday night knitting where they pick projects or you can just join and work on your project. Thursday is open knitting or any project you want to do in the afternoon. The people who go to this range from new knitters to experienced knitters and everyone is always willing to help. The selection is vast and CeCe offers classes from learning how to weave to knitting classes (making socks or mittens) or felting classes. CeCe listens to her customers and is always open to suggestions on what classes you are interested in. I find her prices are competitive and she carries excellent quality items. It is definitely the place to go as you will not be disappointed.

Two days later I went in again and the back part of the store was abuzz with everyone knitting and laughing together. What a delightful place! This made my experience in upstate New York that much richer. Thank you for the great yarn selection, reasonable prices and warm ambiance.

This is a fabrics-only store, so no crafty or kid-creative items a la the larger JoAnn locations. I found them quite light on furniture/upholstery fabrics -- they do have a selection of mostly gaudy prints that you have to special order -- and they didn't have heavy hand upholstery needles, and I am taking from the reaction I got to asking for such items this is very much a clothes-and-drapes sewing center. They do have some things like burlap and nylon it may be hard to get elsewhere, in case you're making your own flag or gunny sack. So there's that.

As a forty-year collector of model vehicles, primarily 1/18 scale resin and diecast, numbering into…read morethe thousands, I have had only one other occasion to purchase from Mint Models. The first transaction was totally without drama. My reason for limited patronage is due to the fact that Mint Models carries some of the best, and sometimes expensive, offerings from a variety of manufacturers and unfortunately most are out of my budget. Still, it is fun to visit their beautiful, comprehensive website and dream. On occasion I will treat myself to a model a little more than my usual price range as I like to sample one or two examples from different manufacturers to scrutinize their detail. I have a handful of Exoto, CMC, BBR, MR, etc. but most of my large collection is moderately priced. I was interested in the Mclaren Speedtail as it was featured at Mecum Monterey this year and I had been looking at a future Top Speed release. In my search, I found Mint Models offering a Tecnomodel version, in stock, and in my color preference. This model is normally about twice as much as the Top Speed but Mint Models had it on sale at a HUUUUUGE discount. Almost too good to be true. Having never owned a Tecnomodel, I decided to go ahead and purchase the model. Although I had trouble having my account identified in their system, likely because I hadn't purchased from them in such a long time, once in, my order was received. I placed my order in the midnight hour on the West Coast and Mint Models had it on its way within a few hours of their morning opening on the East Coast. I only paid for standard shipping but the model arrived far earlier than expected. I have to admit to having anxiety about all my model orders arriving safely when coming cross country and have received boxes that looked like they had been dropped from a five story building probably embarrassing the delivery driver who had to deliver them. Not in this case. Mint Models double boxed and double "popcorned" my model and it arrived in absolutely perfect shape. Once I unboxed the model, it did not disappoint as it was beautifully finished, detailed and even came in a display case that I was not aware of. As nice as the model was, Mint Model's service was even better. I have to admit, in my reconnecting with Mint Models, I was a little concerned with some of the negative reviews but took a chance anyway. I am in the habit of never giving bad reviews in favor of giving no review at all. If you have an ugly baby I won't stretch the truth and say it's cute, I'll say nothing. Fortunately, with this purchase I'm not in that position and felt inspired to write this "short novel." I'm sorry some people felt they had a bad experience but I can only speak of mine and in forty years of collecting and sourcing my models from dozens of vendors, this is one of the best if not "the best" transaction I have participated in. If I can find it in my budget, I won't hesitate to purchase from Mint Models again.

I finally contacted Michlle on January, 6 and told her that I would not be picking them up I was tired in chasing the Items which did not come on Christmas nor on New Year the Items went back to Mint Models and finally after almost 2 month the Issue a refund of $748 this CROCKS want to keep $43 shipping charge and Michale told me I was lucky they did not charge me restocking fee for the cars which never came to me that rich coming from company who did not ship them on time and Items which never arrived to my location. As mention by everyone don't buy from them go to Ebay and by the models there this crocked company sells on Ebay but the difference is Ebay protect you write away . We all buy first then go look for feedbacks I wish I looked for feedbacks before. Yelp claimed this business is closed not true change of address they are open and treating customers very badly. They should of gave my money back when this Item was on the way back no I had to wait one more week to get even $748 they used my money for 2 month made Interest on it and know ant to steel my $43.
