“A great, hidden gem of a bait and tackle shop! My kids and I thoroughly enjoyed stopping by here on the way to Beltsville lake to get some fat, juicy nightcrawlers which landed us a ton of bass that day! The owners were very accommodating and gave the kids a nice tour of their shop and different types of bait. On the way home from the lake, my youngest son asked if we could stop by the shop again just for fun!”
“It was my first time actually going into the store. The owner is super nice. Made me feel welcome!! I had some comic books I wanted to sell. I feel like he provided a fair and respectful price. Will be back!”
“I am new to the hobby, and John went out of his way to find me some obscure cards of retired players who I want to personally collect. The shop itself is exciting to visit, with a variety of different cards and memorabilia to buy or just admire. It is a great source for Phillies cards. Parking is abundant.”

“Hands down the best vendor I have ever used in my 20 years of fabrication and making. Supper friendly and extremely helpful with technical questions and troubleshooting. I would recommend them to anyone needing a quality and reliable material vendor.”
“Very nice place, but was a little disappointed. I am a 63 year old retired army veteran of 20 plus years and I have a great comeback hobby, Estes rockets 🚀!I drove from orwigsburg with a friend, got there to see what they had in stock,...not a whole heck of a lot...but I did come home with a few little things that caught my eye 👁!”
“Outstanding experience at Keystone Rare Coins. I inherited a collection and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Buddy walked me through the valuation clearly and treated me with total fairness. Buddy was patient, transparent, and very fair with his valuation. I felt comfortable the whole time and left satisfied with the offer. Great family business — highly recommend!”
“Owner is straightforward and a decent guy. Knows his stuff. Lots of cool historic items around the shop.
Would have liked to get a bit more for my silver 1984 Olympic coin, but I understand he's running a business and I don't fault him for it. I got cash in hand for an item that was collecting dust. I hope someone gets some use and enjoyment out if it.
Had a nice little chat with him about the downfalls of selling on online platforms like eBay.
Asked permission to take the coin out of the plastic case to inspect. He was honest about the other coin not being silver, which was news to me. Even let me keep the case, since all he needed was the coin.
Glad we have this shop in our little town. Seems like the negative reviews are mostly from dishonest people who think the world revolves around them. Keep up the good work, sir. 🫡🪙”
“At 7:53pm I bought 9 batches of flower stems for a project. The lady at the register along with the manager, Will, were the sweetest. They provided great customer service! I've noticed their boss Frank and other managers like Tina and Chris are all very hard workers. There's also this very sweet and helpful young lady named Michele who I sometimes see when I come in as soon as the store opens. I love shoping here and all the hard working hands with big hearts are what make Michaels a lot more than an arts and crafts store ?”
“This place really is a hidden gem. Very unassuming, but it’s like a time capsule for old school, real hobby shops. Their stock of model building supplies is really good. All kinds of plastic kits of all genres, Balsa planes, and lots of train stuff. If you don’t see it, there is a chance it might be in there somewhere. Yes, there aren’t stacks of RTR Athearn or Walthers stuff, but it’s a breath of fresh air with some kit boxes and plenty of new stock.”
