Spent plenty of money there

This guy has a very poor customer service attitude. He speaks down to you as if you're some kind of dummy. No help whatsoever with defective battery that he sold me. See receipts. 90 day warranty on batteries until he points out in a pompous way "says Zacksters battery" " Does the battery say zackster?" Then says he doesn't even sell them anymore. So update the receipts is what I'm thinking. Says go to the website and deal with manufacturer. Not very knowledgeable of what he sells. I would not recommend buying from him. Beware kids and elderly people. Wish I could give less than one star.

We were visiting from Northern Nevada, surprised to see a storefront small hobby store that was very well stocked.

Ask the Community - Zacster's Hobbies And More

Are you the owner of the shop back in the early 90's who ran RC off-road races next to the old shop location?? If so, I'd like to spend money in there again, for the wonderful memories from my Cal Poly days.

No we have only been in business for 8 years. Hope you come visit or go to Zacsters.com. Have a great day.

Hello. Could be within a day or could take several months. I would have to have an idea what you are wanting.

It is a relatively new business worthy of consideration from residents in and around Los Osos.

Kind of reminds me of the ole Woolworths, but not as diverse…read more More crafts & household odds and ends, than Hobby stuff, but it still useful for some items, like doormats. For some odd reason, they typically have many types of doormats and various other "thing-a-ma-gigs", like analog wall clocks. It is best to go when they have a 50% off sale, and then you can save. They do serve a diverse crowd, and one can see Cal Poly students of all types, including international students. The younger crowd goes mostly for dorm furnishings, while the older locals go for fabric, plastic flowers, and crafts. The service here is really nice at checkouts, but you can feel kind of neglected in store...but not as forgotten as in many Big Box or discount stores. As far as where one wants to shop, it is not like Amazon has moral superiority, over here. At the very least, HL does let you touch the items that one contemplate getting. This is more important when one wants to hang a clock in ones living area for example. Many clocks and other items have deceptively rendered near-fake pictures on Amazon for many items, not to mention fake reviews. It is kind of fun to stop in here for targeted missions that could also include World Market, Nordstroms, and off course Sprouts. If one is on a discount mission, then the nearby Ross's, Five Below, and a short drive to the nearby TJX, Home Goods, Dollar Tree, & Grocery Outlet can take up a whole weekend of time.

What a fantastic store. They had a great sale on beads, and my daughter got so many awesome ones…read morehere for half price! She was very excited about that, and we got to spend some much needed father/daughter time together. Very polite and helpful staff. I will be back! Thanks hobby lobby! A++

Beware - this place is a tourist trap! I placed an order through their website and visited the…read morestore on 4/4, only to find out it was a complete scam. The owner actually laughed while telling us he had just warned another customer that the website isn't accurate and that he cancels all online orders. He still has the site up, fully functional, which is incredibly misleading. There are no graded Pokémon cards available--just loose singles. Shelves were filled with opened tins and TCG Live code cards, making it seem like the inventory is being tampered with behind the scenes. It's not hard to password-protect a website if you don't want people placing orders, yet the site remains live, clearly just to lure in unsuspecting customers. We called the store afterward to ask about our refund and were completely ignored--no one answered. Instead of focusing on Google reviews, maybe the owner should focus on updating his inventory and answering the phone. After three days with no communication and no refund confirmation (only a single email stating the order was canceled), I had to call my bank to reverse the charge myself. Total waste of time and very frustrating. If I could give zero stars, I would. Highly unprofessional experience

Located just outside the Pismo Beach area. 15 minutes from SLO…read more ....we took the opportunity to check this shop out and it was worth our experience. Its a small, true sports memorabilia shop but houses plenty of memory bilia. Lots of frames, autographed items, and individual cards. Plenty for the young collector to 'awe' over and look thru and enough for the ol collecta to really appreciate. The owner is a welcoming host! (I mean, i read some reviews and i can see where people Can deem him to come off uninviting on the initial walk in but thats probably because ur a tourist and/or do not understand the M.O. of visiting a memorabila shop....show respect, get respect. As far as the shop, its like checking out a small museum ....sports memorabilia holds extended monetary value, LOOK, don't really need to touch!) Anyways....the owner knows his memorabilia and is a real collector ...Ol skool! We had a cool conversation and talked sports. He was nice to my kids and even enlightened my kid on some sports trivia. ...all while my 10 year old did some browsing and shopping for sports cards. Overall...fun experience and glad we came in. If you are in town, stop by!

This shop is filled with history and awesome collectibles. No matter what you are looking for Lance…read morehas a selection that will not disappoint. Depending on what you are looking for Lance will work something out with you and I am happy to say going forward he is someone I would be happy to do business with! Lance represents the type of culture I miss in the sports merch industry and it was like a breath of fresh air, a true love for the game and of course California. Definitely the best memorabilia shop on the Central Coast and any time I visit my family here will definitely be stopping by to see what great value is inside! - Edwin

This is nothing compared to the real harsh truth of reality. This honest review is for the sole purpose of bettering the company and hope that this doesn't happen to anyone else. Clearly the person bothered is probably the lazy worker who saw the review or the shop owner*** The person working behind the register did not welcome us coming in the store. My partner and I entered twice and I noticed not once did she say anything to us. I saw her look up, look at us and look back down. She was sitting down the whole time looking at her laptop. Did not get up once. Lazy. Meanwhile, when an older couple walked in she immediately said hello and welcomed them. I don't care for discrimination but choosing and picking who you want to welcome in your store is a red flag. She may have judged us by the way we looked or dressed because we felt unwelcome so we left. My suggestion is to not pick and choose who they want to speak to because it was a lost sale, lost customer retention, lost business. For that reason we left and purchased nothing. Employee was unfriendly and did not smile. In the future I suggest saying hello, being more attentive instead of sitting down doing nothing.

I also waltzed around to the other side of the store and checked out their hand blown glass ornaments. I was very happy to find a tiny aircraft carrier because part of our Christmas ornaments are all the occupations of the whole family, and I never thought I would find an aircraft carrier What's nice about the arts and crafts at Michael's is that you can make memories from all the little goodies that they have!

I pressed, and waited. Waited more. Pressed again. Waited another 5 minutes. Repeat, repeat. After spending about 20 minutes waiting on any kind of response, I walked to the front of the store. There I found an employee overseeing 3 customers all ringing up their own purchases on 3 different registers. She said there were only 2 employees working there at that time--and she couldn't get away. I decided not to purchase the things that I had in my hands and just walked out. What a waste of time. It's a shame too since there are fewer retail craft options--but you can't keep items locked up away from customers--and simultaneously not have any way to get help!
