Default RE: local hobby shops RIP

Sadly we lost one of 3 local hobby shops here in Central Alabama. It was a hobby town USA and was not the greatest hobby shop but it did stock quite a lot in the line of RC both Airplanes and Cars. It was one that was really close to me which was really convienient so if I needed a screw or small part I could just run up there and get it, but not any more. The rumor was that because they were in a Walmart shoping center/ strip mall, the people that owned their building wanted to raise their rent to some outrageous price that would have been too much to pay each month. So they just had a going out of business sale an left.
