This past week I was in Trainland and I want to share what is special about Ken Sr and Ken Jr at…read morethis store. I have an autistic son that loves Thomas the tank engine since he was a little boy. He is older now, but he loves trains. Seeing me come into the store with a friend both Ken Sr and Ken Jr took the time to say hello to me and made me feel welcomed. What is special for me is they know about my son and went out of their way to offer me a Bachman catalog and then Ken Jr made me aware of a special Thomas anniversary car that he knew my son would love. As a father with an autistic son this recognition and caring means so much to me and my family and was appreciated by my wife and loved by my son. For those who have a child with special needs that love Trains I highly recommend you find time to order from or visit in person Trainland as we need more stores that actually care about their customers and their family.

These guys look like they're going out of business. My son went in with a gift certificate, and…read morefound that (other than trains), all other hobbies were poorly represented. The paint section, for instance, was all but non-existent, with some paint being dried up and their containers shrunk and shriveled from age and exposure to the solvents within them. The owner/salesman was horribly disrespectful to him. They had an oil-free air compressor there, but it looked like it had been sitting on the shelf since the late 80s (and still full price!) So, unless they plan on surviving on their train section, I'm not sure what their game plan is. But based on the way they treated my son, that's not really my concern. Would not recommend.

Now they only help me once but besides that I will NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THERE AGAIN. See THOMAS that's the problem I have placed 2 orders in store which I was told that the items will be in there HOBBY SHOP now I was very patient & now the day that the products I ordered from should should be there I called I told that 2 items where but that would have to find the other product I ordered & that they would have to call me be now you I never received a call back that never happened so I called back for a second time now no one knew of what I was talking about now that really made setup & there is more problems .

From the very first day…read moreI walked in - Danny and his crew including his father Tom who has owned the store since the 70s have been the only reason I have stuck with this incredible hobby ( RC Cars & Trucks). They answer all questions and more importantly educate you on trucks, cars, helicopters, planes and more. I refuse to go anywhere else because they are that good. I recently had a traxxas bluetooth controller stolen from me and Danny just gave me one of his. This is exactly what Im talking about when I say I am a customer for life - period. If I could give them more stars - I would.

It's good to see the string of Hobby Lobby(s) marching across Long Island. This is the 5th one on…read morethe Island by my count and the one currently closest to me, so that I no longer have to drive out to Massapequa, Commack or Bay Shore to pick up hobby supplies. Forget about the one out in Riverhead. My current hobbies are building scale plastic model and flying model rockets. These are in one aisle that I make a beeline for when I come to the store. The selection is not great, but adequate. The plastic models go on 40% off sales a few times a year and the model rockets & supplies are usually discounted 30% off MSRP. I wait for the annual clearance sale, when they knock off as much as 75% from the already discounted prices. There are also items in the clearance area with prices slashed as much as 90%. Those are usually junky, returned merchandise or damaged goods, but if you have the time to browse through there, you might come up with some gems on occasion.

Unfortunately, they were either short staffed and had no one working in the department. We waited a while and the service bell was busted so we left. For scrapbooking, their stickers are decently priced and of course always better when on sale. There is a large selection of merchandise throughout the store, a lot of seasonal and religious items. We found ourselves making a wrong turn into the parking lot (into Whole Foods) but the parking lots are not connected so had to come out and make the correct turn. If someone is looking for a job, I think they can use your help (that is if they're hiring).

I watched another customer get three packs no problem, but when I asked for the same, I was told the exception was only because they "knew him" and the cards were for his kids (that apparently doesn't matter if they are there or not) to quote what I heard a worker say one-time "doesn't matter if you bring your friends or family and they are there it's still limited to one per person." The next day? The rule was suddenly back in full force for everyone else. So if you enjoy selective policies and a little favoritism with your purchase, this is the place. Otherwise, don't expect fairness -- just a reminder that you're not part of the inner circle.

There's a good selection- you won't find everything you want but there's certainly some gems in here. The staff were lovely and helpful. I'd come back here next time I'm in the area.
