Had to wait over a month for my order. Although the delivery error was with bpost, I had to repeatedly ask 1001hobbies to find out the locations of my product. Nothing was done or communicated of my own accord. However, friendly in the communication that was there each time.

the product was not great. the price was outlandish and the whole thing was a rip off.
The cost to return it was $270.00 to get it there in time. We will not be doing this and so have just written the whole thing off to experience. We will not deal with 1001 hobbies ever again.

I took advantage of Black Friday to make these purchases. It's one of the rare occasions when you can get good prices on certain products, but generally speaking it's the least interesting offer on the market. I also wanted to buy a Dumas boat with an internal combustion engine, but the explanations concerning the technical specifications were insufficient or even non-existent for this product, so I preferred to postpone my purchase and look at the competition from across the Rhine.

I've been a customer for a few years now, and I've noticed that the delivery time is shorter than usual - great! On the other hand, the condition of the parcel, with the box all dented, gave me a few cold sweats when I picked it up at the post office. Happy holidays to the whole team!

I give 3 stars only for the customer service which is very reactive, attentive and does its best to find solutions. On the other hand, 15 days to receive my parcel, and yet specified in stock at the time of my order. Moreover, given the price, it is not normal at all that the parcel (cardboard where the model is) is badly packed and thus cardboard damaged! that does not look good to offer. For the model and painting that I received, I hope that all is in conformity because I do not know anything about it.

Although it took a while to arrive, they finally brought the package. I think they would have to fix the Correos issue because whenever I buy something, they always send me a message because the customs costs have not been paid. In spite of that, in the end, it arrives.

Delivery time was acceptable considering where it was shipped from. However, communication was pathetic!! It took three emails to finally get a response from someone in France in broken English with a tracking number and how it was being delivered. Tracking was still a problem. I also tried calling the two U.S. phone numbers during normal business hours leaving a detailed message and return phone number. No one ever called. I would give customer service a rating of 0 out of 10. Otherwise, the item did arrive in good condition via USPS.

Long delivery time, lack of clarity about availability when ordering, which generated an error. Virtually no chance to communicate. On the first order it is not at all clear that the store is outside Italy. I received a coupon (11€ refund) that would force me to place a new order. I asked for a refund, but received no response. Keep the 11€, but you lost a customer.

Disappointed, almost 10 days to receive my package at 9.90€ postage, it's expensive, especially since there was only one item to prepare. The box was badly taped, the label was coming off, the letter carrier told me I was lucky that my parcel had arrived safely!

For items declared as "immediate delivery" on the site, I had to send two messages of "complaint" before receiving my parcel after 10 days of waiting. My order had obviously not been prepared, because delivered to the carrier, it was delivered to me the next day. Satisfied with the site and the products, but very disappointed with the service in this case.

We sent the box with the model wrapped in bubble wrap and, of course, the box was delivered half-crushed. Fortunately, the box is too big for the contents, which were able to slide out and were not damaged!

Box was damaged WITHIN the packaging. Luckily nothing inside was broken (briefly checked).
Big box and the model is big so nicely done on having that available. Just keep in mind the box packing when ordering.

Good range of products that I have not seen on other sites. Excellent customer service…personal, quick and thoughtful. Definitely a two-way exchange.
I did not realise that my order was being shipped from France! I would not have questioned the extra delivery time had I known.

The orders I have placed are taking much longer to be delivered than what it says on the web. I have phoned and emailed them and they never reply .... I am certainly not getting a good deal.

standard delivery from belgium to netherlands takes over 3 weeks , a package from japan is even faster. better to mention that specifically so a faster -and more expensive- method can be chosen.

Hello, thank you for your feedback, your opinion counts heavily. I notice that on one of the products (the beads) it is clearly stated that there is a waiting period of several weeks "In stock with our supplier, shipped from our warehouse within 1-2 weeks of your order", while the product is ordered from our supplier. We are sorry if this was not clearer. If in doubt, please contact our customer service: [email protected] or +31 (0)85 80 81 159. Have a nice day.

Everything was fine. However I received an order of Tamiya paints with no name and no reference. Although the fault may be the manufacturer's, however they have not been able to fix it.
