Collectors Club




I was referred to this store by my friend here in the Philippines. He says that this store has the best selection of 1/18 and 1/43 cars in Hong Kong. I started my journey by looking for this store on my first day in the city. I have searched everywhere and could not find it. The address that was on the calling card was obscure.
I asked for my friend John to help me find it. John is a resident in Hong kong and has been there for quite sometime. We looked for it and had a hard time finding it. Finally, he called up the store. The store is located in a building, on the 9th floor.
I couldnt believe my eyes when I saw all those nice 1/43 diecast cars. Most of them are made by Minichamps. There were probably a few hundred 1/43 cars on display and they were all on sale.




The store is really nice. Its made well and the cabinets look really nice. its more of a showroom than a store if you ask me. I like the service there. The store clerks were nice to me. After telling them about my friend in the Philippines, they automatically gave me a 20% discount. Anyway, this is one store that I would love to go to again. Some of the diecast cars on display here are not readily available in other stores in Hong Kong. Nice service, Nice selection, Nice ambience, cold water, what more can a diecast shopper ask for? :)

To go to Collectors Club in Hong Kong, ride the MTR to Mongkok station. exit B3.
On the corner of Sai Yeung Choi Street South and Fife Street, you will find a building numbered 168. Thats the building of Collectors Club. The shop is located on the 9th floor
