Hobby Corner to close

Just to let you all know that 30th March Hobby Corner, Wrexham will close its doors for the last time.

M

I knew it was on the cards but still doesn't make good reading

That's a shame

So guys were is the next local shop to us then?????

Model Exchange, Greenfield
Steve Webb Models, Frodsham

shame think the internet is partly to blame!

the end of an era

Only partly?... completely I would say - especially as hobby corner never really bothered to embrace it.
Despite the sadness - I bet Kerin will secretly be glad to be out of it TBH.
Greenfield shop is a bit of a joke, Steve Webb's is great and always has been, but it is and always was too far to travel to make any economic sense for me to use, and with petrol currently around £6.50 a gallon forget it.
WWW all the way for me, but pretty much always has been for years.....

I still use Steve Webbs online, used to get there once a week when we were working Frodsham market but let the couriers do the mileage now, save my petrol for the models

YEP I agree. the odds are against individual model shops now trying to survive in this most difficult financial climate

come on tim you tight git, get the wallet out do sme shopping, what's £6.50 to you. webbies is just up the road you could be their and in a jiffy on your cycle, think of the fresh air you'll be having
