Title: Hobby People
Post by: Gerald Arana on January 14, 2017, 09:02:20 AM

I got an eMail this morning that says "Hobby People" are going out of business and everything is 33% off.

Has anybody else received this message?

Now is the time to load up on building supplies.  y1

Cheers, Jerry

Paul Bender has recently pasted away. I was told a friend that they are closing all stores except fountain valley store. Their focus will revert back to the beginnigs of Hobby Shack a mail order business. Global hobbies will continue to sell to the existing Hobby Shops in the USA and around the world.

Yea what really sux is a week ago I ordered a few items and today got two e-mails...one, this going out of business notice with 33% off every thing sale, and the other canceling my previous order

I tried to all to call and ask what was back ordered, or not available, but got only computer answering machine telling me to e-mail them

Sad we are losing another of the dwindling resources...

Unfortunately we are going to be seeing more and more of this as time passes.
