Don't buy here. This site is fake. They did not send me my complete order. Do not recommend at all.

Since taking the shop over from the previous owner in November 2008, they have done wonders with ABC ModelSport, turning it from an unfriendly, unhelpful place into an alladin's cave of plastic. The owner is a modeller himself (building a Harrier when we visited), and the shop specialises in Armour, but has a healthy supply of aircraft, Warhammer 40K, ships and car models. He's also a stockist of Great North Roads diorama bases, which are fantastic.- Read Guest's review (93 words)

myself and a friend went into ABC modelsport today and its all changed now , well laid out and Paul was really helpful and courteous and listened to what we were after and sorted us out with everything we needed , I have been using ABC for over 10 yrs now and it was always a bad experience , only went over because we knew it had changed hands , all the best for the future guys , see you soon- Read Guest's review (75 words)

Good stockist of plastic kits and models and also warhammer. The new owners aren't concentrating on RC stuff anymore, but are certainly knowledgeable about what they do stock, and working hard to ensure the problems with the website in the past don't happen again.
Glad to see that the shop and website have now been bought by someone who knows their stuff - first impressions are that whilst there isn't much RC stuff anymore, the new owners are concentrating on what they know.- Read Bricksy's review (83 words)

I ordered an item at beginning of July and after numerous unsuccessful phone calls and e-mails eventually got through to someone late August! They informed me it must be lost in post. Waited one more week to no avail and finally got refund 7 weeks later.- Read Tracy Allen's review (69 words)

I ordered parts for my helicopter online because I have received prompt response from other companies and was able to get back to my hobby by the following weekend. abc modelsport emailed me saying that the order was dispatched which I do not think was the case because 9 days later I have not received anything. I have tried to call them and have sent them email messages with no replies yet.- Read Rotorbuster's review (109 words)

ABC ModelSport debited money from account, claimed goods were out of stock. Did not receive a reply to my emails. They sent a substitute but have not refunded the difference yet.- Read mdbrackbay's review (38 words)

ABC ModelSport debited funds from my account when the goods I ordered were not in stock.
They informed me the items have been posted but I have not received the goods.
Rarely answer phone whenever I phone, unable to leave answer phone messages as system apparently full.
Will not give me a refund even though goods were not received.
I have received half my order now. Make your own judgement after reading these reviews- Read Guest's review (84 words)

Got an email confirmation from them for the cancellation, but no money yet.Currently processing dispute with Bank.- Read Username75's review (67 words)

They did not call me back, answer emails, send out my goods or refund you your money when you ask. I have called numerous times and emailed 6 times. They promised to send out goods 4 times (initially claiming lack of stock, then a stocktake!) and when I asked for my money back after 3 months of waiting, they suddenly said they had the item there and could send it out. I had already bought another elsewhere by this time and said I still wanted a refund. I am still waiting. ABC Model Sport have ba ...- Read Guest's review (127 words)

Although I was told my order was unavailable after ordering a Serenity glider the money was taken out of the account right away without delivery of goods. I was later told that a cancellation fee would be payable when I cancelled the order after being offered an alternative which was not suitable.- Read Guest's review (54 words)

The shop is close to where I live, but I'd rather use mail order or travel than shop there, the staff are surly & unhelpfuland the stock is very limited and poorly displayed.I still was half considering ordering something from them, but after reading these reviews I won't take the chance.- Read Challeger2's review (63 words)
