Big Shout-Out to a Great Store with an Awesome Staff !!!…read more I'm from Illinois and travel for work. One of my hobbies are searching for and buying art or vintage photos and then reframing to keep, gift to friends or family, or sell. I've been to many Hobby Lobby stores throughout the US and this one here in Prattville is exceptional!!! I've been there about 10x in the last 6 months and it's always a great experience. A clean & well organized store, very friendly and professional employees! Today I went to do an exchange on a frame that didn't look as good as I thought it would for a 1951 Photo of boxing legend Rocky Marciano that I'm gifting to my nephew. Madisyn, who was working in the frame department understood what I was looking for, helped me select the perfect frame and put the photo into the new frame to be sure I was happy with it! She then helped me with the exchange at the register (I had lost my receipt) and between Madisyn, the cashier and the Manager who had to approve the process I was in & out in less than 25 minutes with the awesome photo nicely framed and ready for me to pack and ship to Chicago for my nephew. Thanks Madisyn and Prattville Hobby Lobby for being awesome !!! Joe

Talk about being overwhelmed by so much selection of great Christmas stuff! And that is only about…read morea third of the store. Huge selection to pick from and there's a huge sale going on right now where it's 50% off a lot of items!! The staff was friendly and rung us up fast.

Tightly knit local community. Great if you are already part of the "in" crowd…read more If you are new, don't expect very great service. Their selection is low for what some people might think of as a general game store. Many games are simply not offered. What is there tends to be older and not particularly well priced. Positive reviews appear to be mostly from when they had different management. Thankfully, there appears to be new competition in town.

Shelves that used to have no room for another box of mini's now only hold a few boxes of a random selection. Glass cases that held thousands of cards now only a single layer of 10-20 cards displayed. A shop that used to be Visions Cards and Games, now known as "Blurred Vision with Cards and Lames." I don't make that up someone standing outside the store did. Some people say there was the in-people, like and inner circle with the owners, yeah there was, it felt good to be liked by the owners but it was because I was really into MTG and not Vanguard, Yugioh, Pokémon, or Warhammer. They used to have so much!

Absolutely crap service nothing but regrets after shopping here!!!!!!

She immediately helped me find the parts I needed for my mini cub and promptly checked me out. Since it's hard to differintiate one toy/hobby store from the other, I think the organized layout and helpful service is what makes The Model Box stand out.

Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. They had everything we needed and prices are very fair.read more

The manager of the store was joking about people with learning disabilities and Autism and how she…read moredidnt want them or kids coming into the store.

So I went to a "coin shop" in Hoover, (Southern Coin Shop), was treated terribly and was offered…read morefar less than the melt value for some silver dollars. A few of these coins had more value than the melt value, but the Jesse James working behind the counter said essentially "Take it or leave it, offering far less than "melt" on all the coins, including a few that I graded to be Fine or better. (I am not a professional grader). I left it! I gave them a review on Yelp and went to Alabama Coin Shop a week later (today). The experiences could not have been more different! "David" owns and opperates Alabama Coin Shop. He is pleasant, knowledgeable and fair. He patiently explained the relationship between melt price and volatility. David bought 10 of the Morgan and Peace silver dollars for slightly less than melt-Fair, and I left with cash in hand and a new coin shop.

We live 2 hours away from Pelham but no one reliable in our area to buy gold and coins. So, after reading reviews and speaking with David we made the drive and it was a great experience.
