how many people will use spectrum hobbies, since it will be so local for all the east people. Will be worth the drive for those living in pickering and scarboro also

They will not be like Advanced hobbies for the amount of stock right away. You may have to order some parts for your rc, but they will not be beat for PRICE . I have already talked about ordering some stuff that will not be kept on the shelf when they open, but no problem, they will order whatever you want and at a better price than any of the other hobbie shops in durham region. I can see spectrum hobbies getting a huge number of loyal customers when they open. I know they are great people, helpful and have the most experience out there, I would say nitro-tech is the best rc mechanic out there, you will all see how good spectrum hobbies will be ,when they open Aug 19th.

Ahhhh!!! Now I have place to go when my wife is at the Micheal's Arts & Craft store. She has her hobby and I have mine.

But... the store will hopefully be open on Sundays or he'll miss out on my business then I'll be stuck going over to Best Buy and Future Shop.

Best of Luck!!!

This is cool, anything is better then that dude at Discount.
If you carry Traxxas Revo stuff, I will be there like white on rice..

I usually order the stuff I can wait for from this guy in the States.
If your interested I can hook you up with him. He has great prices & super communication..

You probally already know but if we have to order, the faster the better..

Keep us posted, website ???

Good Luck......
