This is the reincarnation of JP Trains and Hobbies formerly located in Latham, NY. I came here on…read morevacation and was pleasantly surprised with the shop. The good: compared to the old store, it is well lit, the aisles are wider, and it is easier to find things. The hours are probably more regular as well. The bad: the inventory is the same as the previous store, but with even less O, S, and G scales. So, if you are an N or HO modeler you will find this store is nearly the same as the previous one. However, if you model in some of the less-popular scales you won't find much here aside from some scratchbuilding supplies. The prices seemed reasonable. Still... the area neads hobby shops, and I will do what I can to support this one. Check it out!

Although the place was about to close at end-of-day, the store was open when I walked in, and was…read moreamazed with this store. Although the aisles were pretty narrow, but the prices were higher than average. Although this place features items for the hobbyist in outdoor hobbies, they do sell craft paints and a few others for indoor hobbies as well. With the prices, come the employees. The employees were knowledgeable, but hard to come-by. They might have been in the back, or out of sight, but they weren't seen, no matter where I looked in the store. I would have expected at least one of them to be behind the counter, but there was no one nearby to ask. (both behind the counter); there was no one on the production floor to help move things back to where they should be(which most stores tend to have at least 1 during all times). This might not have been the best hobby store I've been to, but it certain won't be my last. I don't get down to Poughkeepsie much (from a town in the northern part of the county), but personally, I have my stores close by that I can easily purchase from that doesn't give me much problems.

I finally contacted Michlle on January, 6 and told her that I would not be picking them up I was tired in chasing the Items which did not come on Christmas nor on New Year the Items went back to Mint Models and finally after almost 2 month the Issue a refund of $748 this CROCKS want to keep $43 shipping charge and Michale told me I was lucky they did not charge me restocking fee for the cars which never came to me that rich coming from company who did not ship them on time and Items which never arrived to my location. As mention by everyone don't buy from them go to Ebay and by the models there this crocked company sells on Ebay but the difference is Ebay protect you write away . We all buy first then go look for feedbacks I wish I looked for feedbacks before. Yelp claimed this business is closed not true change of address they are open and treating customers very badly. They should of gave my money back when this Item was on the way back no I had to wait one more week to get even $748 they used my money for 2 month made Interest on it and know ant to steel my $43.
