I filed a claim with UPS who did an investigation but failed to retrieve my item. After also contacting Lombard Hobbies, they replaced my purchased item at no cost. Their handling of this matter is greatly appreciated and I definitely will purchase from them again based not only on their quick and fair handling of my situation, but also for their prices which are lower than some of the other online hobby stores.

The entrance and exit to this store is kinda strange. There is just a singular door for each- the…read moreentrance and the exit. Not a lot of glass, so it wasn't until I came through the first door that I could confirm that this indeed was the entrance. No room for carts between the 2 entrance doors either, so carts are just Willy Nilly out in the front sidewalk. The store was clean but didn't seem to have very much merchandise on the shelves. I came looking for hot pink yarn and I did find what I was looking for. I wonder if craft stores like Michael's are just not stocking the shelves like they did in pre-pandemic days? Anyway, I noticed a cool patriotic chalk drawing on the sidewalk in front of the store, where the shopping carts were.

I watched a group of other customers adding to it, I thought it was a cute interactive thing the store was allowing. Apparently not, I was barked at to not to do so lol, it wasn't a problem when the other customers did it so I felt very targeted and embarrassed. It was a complete misunderstanding on my end, maybe don't pick and choose who you tell? Maybe put up a sign? Maybe take down the completely decorated piece? It's going to keep happening and this misunderstanding made Michael's likeness for me go down

This store is simply amazing for the train lover!…read more They have everything here that you will ever need. From vintage trains and accessories and tools that you need to repair them, to new trains and toys, paint and plays, this store is a throwback to when everyone collected trains. There's model kits, puzzles and modern toys for the little ones, I particularly loved the vintage section with some older models on display. It's time to just walk around here, i never knew that such a store existed.

Stop in here on a whim we were out for a drive and saw that there was a train and hobby store…read more What a hidden gem. My father was a train collector and he would have loved this store. This story reminded me of the train set up that my father had in our attic. So many trains and accessories , as well as cars, model kits, newer Breyer Horses, dolls, puzzles, and toys for young and old. I could have spent all day here and my husband had to drag me out.

This place is exactly what's wrong with many collecting hobbies. Yea, the selection here is pretty…read moregood. That's mostly because the prices are terrible--worse than eBay and Facebook marketplace scalpers. Case in point: there's a pokemon illustrated set that just came out. It's $17. You can still get lucky at retailers and it'll be restocked. Here, just 2 days after launch, they're selling for $50. Just nuts. I guess it's clear this isn't a "card shop," it's a scalpers storefront. Don't go here looking for Lorcana--guessing the margins are too low. Except for their singles, which they sell for $2-4....crazy pricing for Lorcana. Anyways, i won't be back. Will have to continue my search for a card shop that's ethical and somewhat reasonable. --------- Edit in response to business reply: 1) i agree conversation could go a long way. But when your pricing on a brand new Pokémon set (which doesn't have a set market yet) is already 3x MSRP, what productive conversation can happen? It's just a straight up gouge. I'm not naive to expect to get everything at MSRP, but i think 3x markup 2 days post launch is unreasonable. 2) i did ask about Lorcana. I was told you "don't carry much" and "didn't have any right now." 3) you seem to be implying that you're aware prices are high and can then be negotiated lower. If that's how you want to do it that's your prerogative, just understand that's offputting for new customers. It's hard to want to establish a relationship and have a conversation when the first impression is being taken advantage of. And when your response to pricing questions is "well the hobby is thriving!" I don't think that's off base.

It turns what for many is a great hobby into a greedy money scheme. There was not one game at this place that was priced competitively, even the least desirable games are over $5 what you could get them for at other shops.

I saw a straight line down the far side (there's almost always a straight line for the 100% GO FAST!! crowd) funny thing about these places, they're way funner if you listen more than talk; more often than not the guy running it is a professional...

Mike was super easy to work with and pricing was very reasonable to host a 2 hour party for kids. The main track can be dialed back so that the kids won't send the cars off the track. Mike (one man team) did a great job of rotating the kids in for races and even had a separate area for those not racing to send hot wheels care down an inclined race track to pass time while they awaited their turn. Overall the event was a success. We were able to bring in pizza from next door for food. I have pretty fond memories of my dad taking my brother and I slot car racing when we were kids so it was a really cool to be able to share the same experience with my son and his friends.
