i last used tower hobbies about 10 years ago and they were great then

but i know plenty of people who use tower hobbies today and they all have good things to say, a reliable and trustworthy company.

sometimes their prices are a bit higher however.

I have been using Tower for about 15 years and they have never failed to give great service. If you have any problems just call them and they will handle it, (I have only had one problem with them ever). I order about $2000 worth of products from them every year, almost $3500 so far this year.

Join the savers club. You get access to deals not open to the public. Also you get a break on the shipping this alone has now than covered the enrollment fee.

If you are doing a lot of shopping on-line with a credit card read the fine print on the contract. Most companies limit you're liability to the first $50.00 if the card is stolen some have even gone to $0.00. Unauthorized use of you account # (such as in getting the # ripped of on-line falls into this category).

I don't even want to think of the cash I have spent at tower over the last 4 or 5 years since I started shopping over the net, I have never even had a hickup from them.
