Internet Hobbies: good?
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, September 21, 2004 4:42 PM
Is internet hobbies (http://www.internethobbies.com/) a reliable website? I plan on ordering a car model, but I want to be sure that I can trust these people with credit card #'s and the like.

I'm not sure about them, I haven't heard one thing or the other about them. not to say someone else here might know something good about them, but the two I use a LOT and have never had a problem, in fact I have heard others brag on their customer service when a part arrives broken are:

squadron.com

greatmodels.com

both have a GREAT selection, good prices... it took a little longer to geth my latest shipment from great models than I am used to from squadron but it was complete and everything looked great when it got here... I would be more inclined to use one of them before one I haven't heard mentioned... unless someone else comes by and has used them before that is...

Greatmodels does tend to be a bit slow sometimes, but their selection and prices are way better than squadron. www.modelmecca.com had the best service that I've dealt with, but their prices are usually list.

While we are talking hobby shops online, I also highly recommend www.hometown-hobbies.com . Good selection and hard to beat prices combined with excellent customer service....can't beat that! Big Smile [:D]

I too used Internet Hobbies to buy Rocket models and had really good service. I tend to use them when they have their year end clearance sales.

I've used Internet Hobbies as well for a couple of things and I always got them in a timely manner. I think I still like Squadron better, though.
