Richmond VA???

[Barney]

Folks,

I am going to be in Richmond next week and was wondering if anyone knew of a real hobby store in the area? Hobbyland and Hobby Lobby are OK, but looking for the real deal...

Anyone?

Bueller? Bueller?

Did a google search, sure you have to but turned up nothing.

A Hobby Town USA is there in that area. No idea on how good it is.

I did some searching also and came up blank other than the Hobbytown.

You can check out the IPMS USA website. They are supposed to have a listing of all known Hobby Shops throughout the country.

I started contacting the local IPMS clubs for where ever I was traveling to, and just asked them. I found the club contacts through the IPMS website. It's worked really well.

Thanks to all... I could not find anything close... Hobbytown doesn't count... at least not yet!

Next trip is to Mexico for my honeymoon... won't be looking for any LHS's there! :geek

Honeymoon!?!! Congrats Barney! I didn't find a darn thing for ya in VA. Not ALL Hobbytowns are so bad. The Omaha on ROCKS!! our local Hobby haven sells ABOVE Retail, so after that, everything is better!!

t is awful that LHSs are a dying breed...

However, a friend of mine's brother bought on in Lancaster, OH last year and supposedly it is operating in the black!
