Title: WINGHOBBIES shut down
Post by: amir on November 12, 2009, 02:12:04 PM
hi,
had a talk with winghobbies, they are no longer in business now.
the reason is still not known, but we will miss it bcz though they had products costly, but it was worth enough for UP flyers, saving much on courier cost outside UP and sales tax forms..

Its sad to see Hobby Centers in India shutting down - 'India Hobby Center' chain was the source of my first chuck glider (I was 9-10 may be) on which my grana spent more on taxi to locate in Cannaught place. I was very sad to to find it log shut down when I went there my self in my college days! It was really sad.

Its heartening to see other forms of recreations (I know RC is more of a passion) proliferating day by day - Video Game parlor, new multiplexes, theme parks. Such exponential growth is totally absent in hobbies like our.

Its grate that at least these new RC stores have sprung up in the last 5-10 years. Hoping all the best for the WingHobbies proprietors and wish they do better in whatever new enterprise they take up!
