Ive been coming to this place since 1992 to get model Jets when I was a kid living under my parents roof.This place has everything you need to satisfy your crafts or hobby needs. And still till this day I still continue to come here it is now 2016 and this place is just as great from when I first walked in when I was a kid back in 1992. And now the hobby RC section just blows my mind if you are a hobby person and are looking for good pricing without getting ripped off I recommend coming here before you go to places like Hobby People. And honestly what has kept me coming back is the customer service very very nice people and just the good old smell of the history of this place when you walk in. Im a old fashion kinda person so I feel right at home every Time I walk into Busy Bee love this place these people know their stuff and the owners of Busy are always there they are all so polite. I just purchased my Traxxas Stampede from them a few days ago totally happy I say thank you to Busy Bee.

I shopped here several times. This is an "old school" Hobby Shop. They have a LITTLE bit of everything. But they usually have something close to what you are looking for. I have bought something every time I have gone in. It is fun to walk all over the store to see what you might find. If you are in a hurry then ask one of the people working there as they pretty much know where everything is located. AND they will order something for you if they dont have it.

Dont let the broken sign on the outside put you off. This store carries a little bit of everything and was very organized and clean. The employees were friendly and helfpul. I primarily looked at the bead and yarn products. They had a small but nice selection of yarn, some of which was half off the day I walked in. At $1.50 per skein, this was not a bad price for fun fur type yarn. The store utilized their space nicely. It was not cramped at all.

The worst customer service ever! Came in to buy a Rocket for my 11 yo son for Christmas. They had the perfect Rocket. I brought up the Rocket to pay for it and they told me that I couldnt buy it because they didnt have a price? Three Rockets on the shelf and not one of them had a price. The sales associate was Rude Rude Rude. He told me How the hell am I going to sell it if I dont have a price? What?? I wont EVER EVER go back

Very inexpensive for crafts. I have been going here since I moved out to SB many many years ago. The people are helpful buts its a small place. Its better than paying double at Michaels or somewhere else. they have a cool section in back for model airplanes and trains I dong get tat stuff but they have some regulars that always et modeling stuff you can tell when you see thm in there.

Very rude workers. They followed me around the store the entire time and actually grabbed stuff from my hands. I went in to buy a large dollhouse and some little props but after they treated me so badly and trailed me, I left without getting anything. Ill have to fund a new place to get my things, which is a shame since I live so close by.

Walked in at 10:04- hours posted open at 10 was told they were not "Opened" as door sign says. needless to say felt unwelcomed and will not be returning to this store can purchase crafts supplies and model car supplies at more welcoming store on Second and G ST in San Bernardino.

Good selection of tank and aircraft models at a decent price, and was able to pick up a 1:32 Trumpeter F4F Wildcat for less than Amazon was asking, a rare thing from a small hobby store these days. Fairly priced Model Master and Tamiya paint there as well.

If you are designer, artist or something else and you love art supplies this is your place to go, from books to paper and an amazing staff to help you at any time! Is super hard to go just for the things you were looking for... I ALWAYS get so much more!
