When I was first looking for a hobby shop, I tried many times to go to this store during business…read morehours posted on the door. Never seemed to be open any day of the week of any month. So I stopped. About 1.5 years later I am now looking for something my regular hobby shop doesn't have in stock currently and their distributor has on backorder, but I need it ASAP for a big project. I called C & R's and someone picked up, and I started asking questions and they seemed fine until I asked what the price is as I want to know if I can buy it now, or save a little more first since I'm going to university soon. "Uhh just hang on a moment and let me check." "Ok than..." CLICK He hung up on me. I guess that's what I need to be convinced not to try here again.

This is one of the biggest and most comprehensive hobby shops I have been to in a long, long time…read more These don't exist anymore in NYC, having gone extinct by lack of interest and internet commerce. Supplying many of these hobbies have been relegated to a few shelves in big-box craft shops like Michaels and Hobby Lobby in the US. Once I found Imperial Hobbies on Yelp during our vacation and it was near our hotel, I made my plans. I dropped my wife off for her spa day and this was going to be my spa day ;) The store is in a group of buildings almost at the end of the runway of Vancouver Airport (YVR). If you hang around, you'll see tons of airliners approaching for landings and roaring off on take offs. I just couldn't believe the selection of plastic models of planes, armor, cars and trucks along with complete selections of paint and finishing materials. It's these types of stores that I would spend hours in as a boy, but could only stare wide-eyed because I never had much money back then. But now as an adult with a job and disposable income, I probably would have gone broke if I didn't have to pack everything into my luggage to fly home. The favorable CAD$ to USD$ exchange rate also helped a lot in my shopping. I ended up with a couple of scale plastic model kits and a flying model rocket that are rare, out of production kits or very hard to find, even on-line.
