Ultimate Hobbies does have a lot of products, I'll give them that. Their prices are comparable to others, and service is somewhat questionable. Knowledge about the products is good but rather opinionated. For instance, I went in to get a specific part, a swash plate leveling tool for an Align 450 Pro helicopter. Instead of yes or no we do or do not have the part your looking for, the counter guy thought it would be best to give me his opinion of why I don't need one, just eye ball it, it's not necessary. I don't care if you ... read more

Worst Customer Service – After being a customer for a few years and spending a lot of $$$$. I just bought 2 lipo batteries, top of the line charger, new truck body & 1 connector for my son . When I returned the next day to exchange the connector. Somehow it was not on the receipt, and if you shop there you know they escort all parts to the counter for you. The sales person grabbed the connector and basically called me a thief. Not quite the customer service you would expect after being a loyal customer. They are willing to l... read more

Bad Service This hobby shop is probably the worst in Southern California in regards to customer service. When you call, they act like you are bothering them. You can stand in the store and no one will help you AT ALL. If you ask for help they will clearly show their negative disposition. Furthermore, when I brought up the bad service, they gave me even more of an attitude. I visited this store twice, and both times it has been the same story. I live in West Covina and I was looking for a hobby shop where I could spend my har... read more

getting kinda expensive. the staff here are all very knowledgeable and they have a LOT of stuff. They will probably have what you want or can order it, though they are a bit on the pricey side of things.

Great Hobby store. I was very impressed with this store. They have a huge supply of everything. Very courteous staff. They have had no problem answering my technical questions. Returns are easy, as long as you have a receipt. Prices are pretty good overall. I bought a Traxxas Rustler there for $135. You can't get a better deal than that.

Superb Experience Ultimate Hobbies is a large hobby shop with a tremendous selection, lots of parts/accessories and electronics for the R/C modeling community at lower-than-average prices. I was referred to Ultimate Hobbies by, of all people, an employee of another well-known hobby shop that didn't/couldn't carry the equipment I needed. Thanks to them for a great referral. It was suggested to me that I specifically speak with Topper. Topper is an older gentleman that I found to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful when it ... read more
