Nothing like an authorized Horizon dealer price gouging customers. New R/C aircraft was released. The first batch sold out on the website in one day (but more are on the way). Dealers were allotted inventory and Shaffer's decided to put them on eBay at a premium when they can be purchased directly from Horizon for MSRP. Don't do business with people trying to screw over their customers over a measly $17.50. Order from Horizon directly at the MSRP and get your Horizon points for the purchase. Store owner claims I was never in his store. That's not true. I was there and left due to lack of following of PA mask mandate and social distancing.

ive got quite a few RC trucks/cars/drones/boats here. there very friendly n helpful. esp. when ya need parts after making to many driver errors n crashing n breaking stuff, but thats just part of the hobby crashing n getting them fixed back up. if the repairs are more than you care to get into yourself thats ok drop it off n theyll get it fixed up for ya for a small fee. they have most all new RC's on hand and in stock for purchase in store so no waiting for it to be shipped. the only store around this area like this no where else do they have an RC selection like they do here. great place!

Love this place, great selection of RC and model train stuff and only 45 minutes from me. Have bought a lot from them and happy to support a local business. They also have an online store which I order from a lot and being so close only takes a day, two at most to get my order. Highly recommend checking them out :-)

This place and these people are amazing! So knowledgeable! So friendly! So helpful. I went there undecided on what to buy to get into racing this year and every person I encountered, the staff, the customers, the racers, kids and adults alike, they were all some of the nicest people in pennsylvania! One phrase sticks in my head, i think at some point each one of them said to me to take my time and decide whats best for me because "we want you to leave here happy" this should be their motto because let me tell ya. Them wanting their customers to be happy is the reason they are as successful as they are today. I am only 1 of many customers that left that store today happier than I expected! Thank you all so much, and may god bless you all and your families for all of the joy you bring to your community with what you do. Dawn and I will see you soon. thank you again...

I will never go back to this store for anything, these ppl are some of the rudest ppl I have come across, went into the store to buy parts for 2 rc cars i bought used and i was more less told they could not help me without even knowing the rc cars make or model. Both cars were bought new from this store less then a year ago by the first owner. I didn't know buying used was looked down upon by this store.

SHOP AMAZON OR EBAY ITS SO MUCH CHEAPER AND U GET A REFUND IF THE PART FAILS ON YOU!!!!!

Yes these two horizon cars were bought from ur store. I would love to know how you know or don't know if these cars we bought from ur store when the cars were never looked at, the lady was so rude she didn't even take the time to...

I'm so glad that I found this great hobby shop! The people working there are nothing short of amazing, I mean they really treat you so good and they are so informative about what your interested in. They take a lot of time with you to understand what your looking at and then spend the time to explain how things work. It's r/c heaven and they have so many other things. Parts and accessories are overwhelming because of such a huge selection. I just got back into r/c after 20 years and they were amazing at taking time to educate me on how technology has changed. My new toy store! It's honestly impossible to walk into just about any business anymore and be treated like this. Very happy with...
