I have not delt with them myself, but several of my freinds have, and no complaints from them.

Hope this helps.

I looked at their website. Yeah, prices on the brand new stuff were as low as they seem to get. But on a few things that I remembered prices on, they weren't that much better than some of the other mailorder places.

The break-line today on some of this stuff is the shipping charges. Different places have different rules, min. orders, etc.

I saw no mention of min. orders or shipping charges on the hobbystation site. On a small order, shipping and handling charges can make all the difference between a good deal and a bad one.

I know alot of people who have dealt with them and were very pleased. Their shipping is generally $7 per ORDER and an additional $5 shipping and handling if you buy a starter set.
