Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Unbelievably awful service I was planning on buying various things from there site, but after seeing these reviews I tested it with one item first. I paid for the fastest shipping option and they still took over 2 months. After I finally recieved the package I figured I could order the other things I wanted since the first one checked out (even with ridiculous time). But than a month after my second order I receive an email stating the items were listed at the wrong price , and they removed every single item I purchased from their website. Took them a month to let me know they messed up, AND THE REFUND STILL HASNT GONE THROUGH!!!! Forgot to add this part too at first... but also when I asked them a question via email it took 4 days for a response and the answer was just PART OF MY OWN QUESTION COPY PASTED AND SENT BACK TO ME. I HIGHLY DONT RECOMMEND THIS SITE!!!!!

The model itself is the size we wanted, but it's one thing for the chassis to clip on poorly to the passenger compartment. You'll have to work a little harder. But that the windshield doesn't match the Volkswagen newbeetle we ordered is quite another. I've tried to contact you without success. No one answers. So ordering another model is not advisable. Assuming that this message allows you to contact me, you have my contact information. M

It's a gift that hasn't yet been given to its recipient, so I can't say much more than that. Dice

Ordered a kit 9 weeks ago and was told that it had been dispatched a week later. After several email exchanges I requested an update or a refund to which the response was that they were still following up with Hermes. No further communication was forthcoming so I instructed my bank to reclaim a refund via the Chargeback arrangement which they did straight away. For more than 20 years I have ordered models from all over the world with few problems. Perhaps I was just unlucky but this was the first and last time I will use this supplier.

Delivery time a bit long

Horrible mail order service. My order was poorly packed so everything was covered in paint. It was a more than $80 order. They were slow to respond to my inquiries and refused to replace the shipment. They offered a $10 credit. Horrible mail order service. DO NOT order on-line from them. They do not stand behind their products.

When will the money be refunded? The delivery arrived on July 15. https(:)www.laposte(.)froutilssuivre-vos-envois?code=711114321810 <- (Please remove the parenthesis from the link) You no longer respond by email why?

The quality of the product is pretty mediocre, especially considering its price. All the parts are made of plastic and are poorly cast and cut. The paint is not included and the size is ridiculously small! I advise you to spend your che

Assembly too simple, done in 1 hour by a 16-year-old. Plastic vehicle

I still have not used. I still have not used.

Update July 22 ""1001modellbau""-Team probably does not understand German Goods were returned and no refund was made. ->Because goods were not returned and another return bill was created. So once on July 2 a return slip and this was used for the return. Arrived on July 15 at 1001ScheißLaden Now on July 21 again a return slip with the request to return the goods. I am speechless !!!!!!!! My tip is not to order here !!!!!!!!! The store is so stupid and asks me for a rating if I have already given a negative rating. They don't understand German and I'm not sure about English. Update July 17th Goods were returned have arrived there on 15.7. On 17.7 after inquiry came the return message from 1001 the package has not yet arrived. -> Recognition super in wrong delivery and super in very slow processes this has nothing to do with COVID19. Unfortunately, one star has to be awarded here see this as a negative star. ------------------------------------------------------------ Ordered blue comp. and received black. After a very long wait, the parts were delivered Ordered components from Blackbull for an RC car color in blue. The parts arrived in black. After complaint no quick solution is focused but the supplier is contacted in this regard and time is lost further. Never again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Telephone recalmation not possible. Return bill has arrived let's see when the money will be transferred back.

It took much longer than the offer stated but 1001 Modellbau managed to deliver this very rare kit. And in perfect condition. I am thrilled.

I ordered 3 Futaba BLS 253 servos for €106 each and received them about 2 weeks later. Unfortunately, one servo was defective right from the start, so I filed a warranty claim. After some tough e-mail correspondence, I was given a return address to which I should send the servo with a copy of the invoice. According to DHL shipment tracking, the shipment was delivered there on 23.06.2020. On 20.07. I asked when I can expect a refund or new delivery. On 21.07. Reply from 1001 Hobbies that my shipment has not arrived there. A refund will only be made once the shipment has arrived. And I simply do not believe that 1001 Hobbies does not want to have received the shipment - this shows the non-existent service concept of 1001 Hobbies. For me this is dubious! Do you really need to do that? You probably have to personally hand in a return against receipt in France to get a refund. I assume that the customer is being deliberately cheated here with warranty claims. I will definitely never buy from this company again and advise everyone not to do so. A good company shows itself when it comes to problems or service, and you can't expect anything from 1001 Hobbies. One star is still too many.

Great communication and fast delivery. Thanks!

Imagine I order 4 items (accessories since June 4, 2020) obviously already billed as usual but towers not delivered July 21. Do not order on this site a real scam!!!! Others are much better. Oh, by the way, this review will obviously not be validated because it's bad... several bad things...

1001 sucks If there was a zero rating l would use it. I ordered 2 separate decal sheets. One said ships today and the other said ships in 3-6 business days. After 14 days I contacted them and they told me one 1 item was out of stock and they advised they were looking for another supplier. I asked them to send me the one item they had and they refused. I asked them to cancel the order and issue a refund they refused stating their logistics would make that impossible. They also advised that their ""logistician""??? could not perform that function. They are as bad as the Chinese company Goutuin. They advertised and sold merchandise they didn't have and they also reused refund. In closing 1001 Hobby kits sucks and I will never do business with them again and recommend that you don't either.

Well done and thank you. Well done and thank you.

Only use Paypal or Credit Card!!!! Wish I had seen reviews before puchase Ordered two items (value approx. 2x £100, Total £200) during Covid -19 (I totally appreciated the order was likely to be delayed). I paid extra for quicker shipping (with everything going on I honestly expected it to be delivered within 7-14 days). All items on the website said "instock" at time of order or I wouldn't have ordered them. A month later I had no sign of the order and it still said processing on their website. I emailed 1001 on 3 occasions to get an ETA for the order, I was eventually told the second item was "out of stock" (I beleive it was still being displayed as ""in stock"" on their website at that time...), I gave them the opportunity to provide two of the first item instead. That suggestion was ignored and I after I kept pushing they started a new thread to tell me again that the "2nd item was out of stock". Communication was next to useless, single response to each email thread followed by ghosting after that every time. I gave up and raised a PayPal claim. I warned them after making the claim and suggested the alternative again which they also ignored. I would not recommend and I can't stress enough to make sure you can claim if they don't deliver (only buy with PayPal or Creditcard). I'll give them the benefit of the doubt but it does smell dodgy.

During a period of Furlough I ordered a Vulcan model and full set of paints (29th May 2020) after seeing all items were available to order I waited until 18th June before querying where my order was. I got numerous responses saying ""Due to an error from one of our suppliers we are still waiting for the product"". They said it would be sent in 5 days. This didn't happen so I agreed a refund on 23rd June. I understand the impact of Covid19 but the e-mail clearly stated the refund would be completed within 14 business days. It is now 19 business days and despite sending another e-mail request for an explanation of when I would receive my refund (15th July) I have heard nothing and not been refunded. Availability poor and refund service even poorer.

If it were possible not to put a star on it, that would be fine. I ordered the Bismarck battleship on May 21st as a Father's Day gift, and I'm still waiting for it, maybe they'll give it to me already assembled? So zero total on deliveries and zero total for lack of communication I'm waiting for a sincere explanation accompanied by a ge

I was very upset when UPS sent me an... I was very upset when UPS sent me an email telling me my F-106 model had been delivered and UPS had not been seen on the street I live on. So I start a claim against UPS and the claim was denied because only the shipper can file a claim. On the third evening while I was working on the claim I received a phone call from someone 4 blocks away informing me that they had my shipment. It was addressed to me but had the wrong address on the package. This kind person researched my name and found my address and they were on the to deliver it. I checked the order and my mailing address was correct. Someone at the shippers end entered the wrong address. The model looks great but I will have to find a way to remove the decals and put the set I ordered on. I wish they produce the aircraft model without decals so customers then apply what they want on them.

long wait but good product .

Received quickly Great I recommend A small downside everything is in English my son who is 9 years old is satisfied

Slow in shipping which you can not follow. And if the product is not there after waiting many days they send you a voucher to buy in their store. Charging you again for the shipping and start again the circul.

Punctual and accurate but don't understand each other with colorise you ask for a color must be that and no BLACK!!!

Very satisfied as usual i. laure

Fast delivery but I already have a problem with the battery power supply.

Very good communication, but unfortunately the box was damaged when I received the parcel (although the contents seem to be in good condition). I would also have appreciated it if delivery problems had been announced on the site (which advertised delivery in 48 hours) before the order was placed and not just afterwards in the

The model is not in cardboard but in paper, so I can't use it as I wanted. I'm very disappointed.
