Several times now the people at Rider's have helped me with programing my transmitter and airplane. I couldn't have done this on my own. This week they sent my broken Saito engine back to Horizon Hobby for repair. They did all the paperwork and packaging and covered the shipping cost. Two weeks later they called me to say that they have a brand new engine for me to pick up. No questions asked, no charge, not even for shipping. I can only imagine the heartburn I would have had to deal with if I had bought this engine online. We need to support our local hobby shop because their support is vital to us and our hobbies.

Also a great place to shop for unique gifts for kids. I come here to buy role-playing game products and miniatures and paint supplies.

My boyfriend and I recently got into RC cars, and he has visited Riders a few times to pick up…read moreparts. Unfortunately, each visit has been disappointing. They often sell him the wrong items or are completely out of what he needs to get his RC car running. Most recently, he purchased a brushless motor they recommended, and we returned today hoping to buy a transmitter. To our surprise, we were informed that they wouldn't have any in stock until the end of August! To add to our frustration, they have a strict no-return policy, so we're stuck with parts that don't work for us. It's frustrating to rely on a shop that consistently misses the mark on customer needs and doesn't offer refunds for incorrect purchases. We won't be coming back and want to warn others to think twice before buying from them.

Seriously another thing that happened, which is wild, it made me feel as though I grew up in another era. Crazy huh???? I think so. The gentleman that was at the cashiers, welcomed us and immediately made us feel at home. I guess that also had a lot to do with my experience while in here. I could tell the care and thought that he puts into his store! Very cool place!

Recent purchases from here were stencils kits purchased as a gift for a young man in the hospital and he loved them. I purchased two games recently Yahtzee and chess and picked up curbside. The chess set is well made with durable pieces and a great value. Before the pandemic, it was a fun store to browse in and look at the variety of vintage and modern toys. They also carry that line of books about towns or cities history with vintage pictures. Tecumseh has a rich history especially and some local buildings and landmarks are well preserved.

Not to mention you save the expense and risk of shipping if you come to the store in person.

Evolution Games is a gaming store located on the west side of Lansing. It has several different…read moresections. It sells a wide range of board and tabletop games covering basically the entire gaming spectrum. It also has a number of rooms for game playing, and often hosts gaming sessions and tournaments. There is a calendar at their web page with information on these sorts of events. There are also tables in many areas of the store, and a number of 'store copy' games so you can try them out before you buy (or just stop in to play a few games). If Evolution Games suffers from one problem it may be the fact that it has such a wide range of games limits the amount of space that can be allocated to any single area. The store, while a reasonable size, could be bigger. If you are into gaming, check it out. A good selection and friendly atmosphere.
