Misrepresentation of Shipping Speed, Poor Experience Estimate delivery date was 12/24/20. Ordered was placed on 12/15/20. A SIGNIFICANT upcharge for more rapid shipping was paid. No communication was given regarding shipping until 12/19/20. Item still has not arrived to destination. Tracking information provided had a dead link, had to independently find a tracking service which then showed by 1/7/21 the item was no where close to its final destination. I receive frequent emails from this website about reviewing my order and I haven't even received the item, which is incredibly obnoxious. This has been a terrible experience and I will never use this website or service for purchases again. Mistake made and lesson learned.

I can't recommend this company at all. I placed an order before Christmas with guaranteed delivery before Christmas. They gave me a Hermes tracking number which showed that it hadn't been collected until the 7th of January. I contacted 1001 Maquettes and Hermes several times up until that date. Hermes confirmed they'd never received a parcel and 1001 Marquettes blamed Hermes for delaying it. I was even told to go check at the port of arrival because it's probably there being held up by customs because of Brexit Christmas etc... Surprise surprise the day after I threaten to chargeback my credit card Hermes receive it. The expected delivery date? 12th of January. I can confirm that it does not take 5 days to get from Dover or Calais to London. Dodgy company lying staff. Will just send it all back and buy it elsewhere. Shame as I spend hundreds of pounds on modelling kit per month.

Ordered the Escalation Box Ordered the Escalation Box, Black Fortress. Weeks had passed and I'm still waiting despite it was mention on the web-site there are 4 items in stock. Now, as I see that I've ordered the wrong version of the box I can't find a way to cancel the order and get the refund. Highly dissappointing.

Order placed on 19122020 for delivery on the 30th. Cancellation requested on the 28th, even though the article had still not been dispatched and I had found a cheaper and faster alternative from a competitor. E-mail from 28122020 accepting the cancellation and refunding my first monthly payment. On 05012021 I receive an e-mail informing me that my item (supposed to be delivered on 30122020) has been shipped, but should never have been shipped. So I have to go to my local parcel shop to refuse the parcel and wait for it to be returned, just to get my refund for my first payment. This is unacceptable. It's the first and last time I'll be committing a fraud.

Very disappointed with the shipping service. After more than 10 days it still has not arrived. They have been 4 days ""in prapració"" and another 5 ""Prerregistrado"" in Correos but without delivering the package to be sent. I wrote an email two days ago and have not had a reply yet. As for the model in question, I still do not have it in my hands.

Since you ask for a review: very bad experience! Order placed on December 16 for what was supposed to be a Christmas gift. First of all I was told that an item had to be retrieved from the supplier. The item according to your emails was not shipped until 3112. To date no package received the SDA tracking number appears to be non-existent. I sincerely hope it will arrive but reading the other comments I am very afraid!!! And then they wonder why one buys on Amazon.

Well-priced TAMIYA acrylic paints. Satisfactory delivery time despite the constraints of the pandemic. Products received in suitable packaging and fully compliant with my order&""" bémo"" : all paint bottles are covered with an adhesive warning against the harmfulness of the adhesive product affixed to the original TAMIYA label ... and masking the reference of the shade ... which can be removed provided you tear it off with the original label! MORE THAN ANNOYING!!! Fortunately, I'd kept my own order list (with reference no. and name).

Dear Sir or Madam I placed an order with you on 13.12. because the situation was presented in such a way that the desired products were immediately available (= in stock). On 14.12. I received a confirmation of this order. It was not until 23.12. that I was informed that delivery would be delayed because 2 of the 3 products were not in stock and could not be ordered. There is no contact address on the homepage. At the same time, the possibility of telephone advice is advertised. Nobody can be reached via the number, which is also almost impossible to find. I would like to cancel the entire order but I can't reach anyone. I have never experienced so little customer service. As I paid with Paypal, this will be the next step. I will wait another day to see if there is a response this way. A. Büttner It has now been six days and still no money has been refunded!!!

I can confirm the long delivery time already described in the other reviews. Unfortunately, the box of the model I ordered was damaged at the corners (torn and dented) although it was properly packed. It must therefore have been sent off with defects. As a gift, this was quite unattractive. Fortunately, the model itself is fine. For the price and a handling fee of almost 10! euros, I expect the goods to be in perfect condition.
