Working with The Hob Hub was super easy, almost too easy! I bought an inexpensive comic book on their website for my son. It was so easy to order it, and it arrived within about three days of ordering... See more

Fast shipping but minorly damaged product.

Shipping was quick and the product came in great condition (not perfect but great). The packaging was perfectly done but the issue I have is because of Gemtek. There is a minor tear on the outside of the product which could have been caused during manufacturing. Other than that. I would buy from you guys again.

Welcoming and well stocked

Great shop. In my experience it's the best stocked in town! Everyone makes you feel incredibly welcome there whether you're a veteran player or just starting out. They're always non-judgemental and very excited to share their love of games.

**WARNING** FRAUD ALERT: RECEIVED SEVERELY DAMAGED COLLECTIBLE

Diamond Select - Legends in 3D Obi-Wan Darth Vader 1/2 Scale Bust -

** WARNING **

FRAUD ALERT: RECEIVED SEVERELY DAMAGED COLLECTIBLE
- SELLER FAILS TO FOLLOW THEIR OWN SELF-SERVING REFUND & RETURN POLICY

Seller HAS NOT contacted or answered absolutely any inquiries to damaged collectible received via USPS. Better Business Bureau in Central & South Alabama Reference = Complaint ID 21281483. Awaiting Response For Full Uncontested Refund For Damaged Collectible.

Repeatedly called + left voicemail messages @ [****]. Both prior to delivery + shipping (020324) & twice after receipt of ''damaged collectible'' (020824) + (020924). Seller [Tanner Brockett] Refused to Call Back at Home Landline Provided. Below From Seller Website : If you have any questions you can contact us at: Email: [****] Phone: [****]

Several new updates have been attained directly from Manufacturer + Fabricant (see attached images). The additional issue that a ''FRAUD'' had been committed by the seller (The Hobby Hub) since this collectible in addition to ALL the aforementioned damages (see attached). It was proven by the direct contact to the aforementioned fabricant + manufacturer (Diamond Select Toys dba Gentle Giant Ltd.). The invoiced collectible was supposed to be ''BRAND NEW'' and the fact that it was an ''OPEN BOX or OPEN ITEM'' is definitely not the agreement by the purchased price of $199.99 (see attached).

Most likely the damage may have already even been done since it was mishandled by ''several hands'' from the seller (The Hobby Hub). The original price was marked as $225.00 then later after it was either damaged or deemed ''used'' it was marked down $199.99 (see attached image of price reduction) but absolutely never ever mentioned on description of sale (see attached detail from seller website).

Packaged very well

Packaged very well. The condition of the product was a little less than what I expected. The item was a hard item to find, so I can't complain too much. On the other hand, I did pay a higher than retail price.
