Title: Model Exchange Hobby Shop, Holywell, North Wales
Post by: kinmel on March 04, 2016, 05:46:33 pm
The Model Exchange Hobby Shop on the Coast Road at Greenfield, Holywell is to close down due to ill-health in April, unless the  business can be sold. It may possibly stay open on Friday and Saturdays in April until all stock is sold off.
 Until the shop closes, all stock will be sold off at a 20% discount of it's marked price.
 We will be very disappointed tif we lose the last shop of it's kind in north Wales.
 
 The shop is usually open every day except Thursday.

The shop closed at the end of June, but still opens now and then as they try to sell off the remaining stock.

The website has closed, but the shop is not empty or for sale.

Try phoning them, ......  OK, the system here won't let me post their phone number, I will PM it to you

Apparently the system is preventing phone numbers from showing in emails too.

Let's try again.... 01352 713027.  This phone number was for the shop and the house.

The problem was I had cut and pasted from Google and I had not realising that it was a hyperlink.   A plain copy worked.
