Hobbylinc

I have used Hobbylinc for most of my model car supplies for the last year. The have a comprehensive supply of the specialty items needed to properly build a model car at an affordable price. I just wish they were closer by where I live, but the shipments have always arrived in great shape.

I really enjoy sharing the finished products on their website and getting feedback from other enthusiasts. I have recently recommended the website to a coworker who's into model railroads. He really liked the selection and prices.

Keep up the good work and hopefully we can keep this business open.

Hobbylinc takes a ridiculously long time simply to place your order in the mail. If you order from them, be prepared for an unnecessarily long wait.

I have been buying from Hobbylinc, 1/72 scale Aircraft and Vehicle models (50 plus kits), plastic sheeting, tubing, rods, brass and aluminum tubing, glue and paints since 2015. With every hobby shop within a 40 mile distance from my home closed, they have become my primary source for most all of my modelling needs. Everything I have ordered always arrives in my mailbox or on my door step within the estimated week to 10 days. Always properly packaged so not a single item has ever arrived damaged.

So far I have had really great experiences with Hobbylinc, other one small issue, ( I had some Revell Glue that did not make it to my home in very good shape. But I don't know if that was a shipping issue or the USPS issue) in the long run, I ended up transferring the contents into a container designed for that purpose. Anyway other than that. No issues. I've received all of my items that I've purchased thru them in a timely manner and in perfect condition. I've ordered everything from supplies to models From them

I'm starting to order models from them, which upon opening a package, we had 10s of 10s of ants coming out of the box. My wife goes to break down the box and another bunch of ant came out. Now we might have to get someone in here to spray.

I've had a great time using this site to restart modeling. They have great selection and the site is easy to navigate. Ordering is easy and shipping prompt. I highly recommend!

I'm a full time model builder; I purchase about 1K per month in all manner of hobby supplies ranging from paint and scratchbuilding supplies to kits. Hobbylinc is at the bottom but they do carry a few items I can't get elsewhere so I am stuck.

Shipping speed is slow. They take on average a full week to get your order processed; most others get it done in two to three days tops.

They use the cheapest shipping option which means you can add at least another week to the shipping, i. E. two weeks.

Their packaging leaves much to be desired; I got my 24 inch styrene shapes sent to me in an 18 inch box; they bent the styrene into a horseshoe to fit the box!

I use Scalehobbyist, Sprue brothers, Modeltrainstuff and Trainworld first; I only go to Hobbylinc as a last resort, mostly because of the shipping issues.

Great service. I had a small order of HO building parts for a non-train project. Their inventory is diverse. Delivery was quick, in spite of current delivery delivery chain issues, world wide. I would definitely buy from them again

Giant selection. Easy to navigate and always have what I need and at a great price. Ships right away

Very easy to find what your looking for & if it is in stock. Great prices & very fast shipping with tracking provided. I was looking for AK wax tube paint all over the web they were the only hobby store I could find that had all the colors in stock. Ordered on a Sunday & had them by the next Friday. Very impressive! Will be buying from them again!

Great selection and best prices of all I found on the internet. Fast shipping and a pleasure to deal with.

I made probably the smallest order Hobbylinc has handled: under $5. Even so, they checked with me to be certain that I'd ordered just a single piece (yes) and it came within a few ddays. Couldn't be happier.

Let me start by saying processing times are a little slow, but knowing it's a family run business makes the delay understandable. Also, shipping was really fast so that also makes up for processing.

Prices are unbeatable and packaged with care to ensure my paints/primers were not damaged during shipping.

I will definitely be ordering from Hobbylinc in the very near future, also don't forget to sign up for there rewards program, points accumulate really quick for credit towards purchases.

First rate hobby item and supply source, Great selection, prices, good service, fair shipping prices, Good communication and even advice when needed. Top flight.

Good range of products, great service, reasonably priced. I have made a number of purchases from this company for both kits and supplies and have never been disappointed. Good place for all of your modeling needs.

I have ordered many model kits from Hobbylinc. All have arrived safely and quickly. I always compare prices and they usually win,

Prices are good, the selection is huge and impressive, shipping prices are in line with industry standards, but i have put off ordering because ive read reviews that say actually receiving your items takes forever, granted its only been a week but im told at least three more days to receive some 1/72 troops, Atlanta to Des Moines doesnt seem like that far, if you want your order QUICK try Mega Hobby in New Jersey, shipping is a little more but its worth a few bucks to get my package in at most 4-5 days, also Burbank House of Hobbys is not quite as fast but close, and better rates

As a modeler of many years, I have needed many types of model supplies. Anytime that I have a need, Hobby link is there with whatever I need. A fantastic selection of supplies, great service. And great swift mailing of what ever I order! Job well done Hobby Link!

They have some things that the others don't. That's when I pull the trigger. Their point system is a plus.
Down part is that things don't move until about a week. Then you have a delivery wait. Too slow.
It's the 2nd time I ordered paint and found myself in a hobby shop and getting it.

I find that they usually have the lowest prices.
Great shipping, well protected and fast.
I haven't had a bad experience yet.
Cheers!

Very unhappy with HobbyLinc. I would do lots of business with them if we could pick up! I'm about 5 miles away. But I bought paint from them and a week later it gets packed and shipped. WAY TO SLOW. And still waiting! Will not order again from them. That point alone is only worth a one in ratings for Hobbylinc.

This site is really my only online choice! Read some other reviews and yes, shipping can be slow, that's your choice-you can pay for faster shipping! I try to plan ahead and the standard shipping is fine! Also have had good results with customer service inquiries. If a popular item is out of stock, just click the e-mail me when in stock feature it works! Great job Hobbylinc employees!

I especially like their clearance items. Prices are lowest I've seen. Most items arrive before their estimated delivery dates.
