Good place to get fastening gear like screws and nuts for 3D printing projects. Bought some R/C battery connectors to repair a VR headset fan. Helpful, friendly staff.

This place has all the gadgets, strings, motor, controller, hobby items galore in a hidden residential area in Kaimuki. If you like drones, fishing, flying rockets, motor small boats, RC cars, making planes, and possibly making gundam, this place is a great place to buy parts to replace or repair your hobbies. They have so many selections depending on your interest. My friend convinced me to look at this place since he likes to fly drones, and planes and I was shocked that this place is near residents and has a wide array of selections to make your hobbies as well as have fun with your hobbies. Science teachers or coaches for robotics or battle bots, this place has multiple items you can teach to build or compete with Definitely will come back again for parts needed or thinking to build something

This was actually the first time I rock crawler with no tumble.

Family owned business with great customer service. I read some of the bad reviews about how, "they tried to sell me a more expensive remote control car." In the end, it's up to you, as the consumer if you want to buy it or not. You control your money, not them. With that in mind, although I was being pushed towards a truck that I didn't really want or care for in buying, I just went with what I researched. After I made my decisions, they pointed me out to the the available parts and accessories. Before going in to buy anything, do your research, and you decide what you want. I'm completely happy with my purchase.

My Boyfriend and step sons best place to go for RC parts when it is needed. This place is a Mans treasure Shop. Customer Service here is Amazing They are keeping it Social Distancing and Allowing a few at a time in the Shop.. If you are looking for Parts it will also help with calling them ahead of time to see if they have it in stock. You will have to find Street Parking

Extremely friendly and knowledgable staff when I needed advice regarding gluing model kits. The prices I think were reasonable.

Is what it is, this is the biggest mariner and boater store we have on this side. While it's a big…read morechain store, that offers benefits that smaller ones can't offer like shipping in parts from the mainland. I've been using the West Marine website to order online and pick up to save time when I get there. Staff is always friendly when I get there, saying "hi, can I help you with anything?" They have a really good selection of general marine parts and some specialty stuff you can order. Many people don't know they have ocean apparel and stand up paddle boarding stuff. Reminds me of Sports Authority of the old days, but for boats. Plenty of parking, just have to drive in a circle, one way in and one way out, from Nimitz/Ala Moana Blvd.

I placed a store pickup order and was disappointed by the customer service. The employee never…read moreasked for my name or order number. Instead, he directed me to a wall of pickup orders and had me locate my own package. After I brought it to the counter, he simply removed the tag and completed the transaction. I've used store pickup at this location before, and staff retrieved the order for me. This experience felt indifferent and unprofessional, with no effort made to assist the customer or verify the order before sending me to find it myself. It gave the impression that customer service was an inconvenience rather than a priority. The weakest part about his terrible customer service was the wall is right next to his cashier station and there were no customers in line behind me or the second cashier.

If you've been around the diving scene for any amount of time, you already know about Hanapa'a…read more These guys are the OGs. I've been dropping by every time we're back on the islands for over 20 years, and it's still the first stop off the plane. I will say though, service can be a little rough sometimes. Some days are good, some days not so much. But honestly, that's never been the point of this place. You're not coming here for some polished haole sales pitch of some sort, you're coming because these guys know what they're doing and they'll get you what you need so you can get back in the water. And that's where they really shine. Need a j tube? They've got it. Need a new band? They can fab it up in like 5 minutes so you can still make it to the spot on time. They almost always have exactly what I need in stock and at a fair price. You'll see some of the best divers in the islands and honestly, some of the best in the world just casually stopping in. The shirts and designs are also totally underrated. They've got their own local style and I've of course picked up a few over the years and they hold up good. Hanapa'a is one of those rare functional places you can always rely on. it's rooted in the community, and it delivers when it counts. If you dive, you already know. If you don't, this is where you start. Just don't be a Karen and you'll be good.

Service was amazing. They have prescription goggles/ masks that he fitted new lenses into right on…read morethe spot. Took less than 10 mins too. I can see again! 10 out of 10!
