This year I am trying to really commit to shopping locally for things and I'm glad to find a place that has much of what I need for decent prices. I also always enjoy meeting folks who have knowledge, expertise and good salesmanship. Looking forward to returning for my next project's needs!

I called ahead of time to find out about model ships and the owner was helpful and answered all of…read moremy questions. As a first time shopper for my aunt who enjoys this type of hobby, they had a variety of items such as military planes, tanks, battle ships, and subs too. I enjoyed the display of all of the models to look at as they had many types of cars, trucks and more. It felt personal as this is a privately own established business that I enjoy supporting and contributing too.

When my grandson liked WW2 planes the person (I don't want to say salesman since there was absolutely no pressure or upselling) explained the different types of planes. Also he recommended which ones for a beginner modeler based on size and number of parts. Very helpful. Plus I called for a question when he started painting. The question was answered right away without having to be transferred to another person. So very helpful in that store. I'd like to also click on value but they only let me select service and selection.

As the hobby continues to grow, so do the number of hobby shops. If you're in or near the Phoenix…read morearea, RIP Valley is hands down the best shop for various reasons: -fair pricing -incredible selection -by far the best customer service On Saturday June 6th I went to the shop to browse some discount bins. Calvin and Emmet were working, and they could not have been more welcoming. They invited me to sit at one of the tables so I could watch the game while sorting thru a bunch of boxes. I thanked them for not sweating people who are just trying to find some gold. One of the young men went and got me a cold water and we talked ball for a while as I continued to search. All in all it just feels like the old school shops when you could go in and look for what you like, instead of being pushed out of the way for people buying thousand dollar cards. One other thing I'd like to point out, is they will take a look at anything you feel like parting ways with. Saw a couple different people come in, and the staff gave them fair and honest pricing and advice, instead of belittling them or offering them well under comps. This place is also located in a cool part of downtown phoenix, so you can park for free near the park, walk to the shop, then check into some of the local eateries and bars!

Over 7 days I have "scored" on 3 wonderful cars/trucks (Tmaxx, Jato, and E Revo). I guess you can say I'm feeling like I'm 15 years old again LOL. Jose has tuned both my Tmaxx and Jato not to mention helped me out w/ repairs on all 3 of my cars. My newest car being a E-Revo in which I purchased from Jose which has quickly become my favorite. I just wanted to share how wonderful of an experience I have had with Jose and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to find a shop that is actually affordable, reasonable, and a man who is a people person who simply wants his customers to be happy. I'm writing this experience hoping that there is a kid or an adult out there who may come across this review and pay R/C FIX a visit. You will be so happy you did good people seem to be hard to find these days. So when you can find a good person who actually knows what he's doing I call that an A-1 experience. See you on the Race Track ;-)
