Hello I'm still waiting for an order placed on 03.07.2020 but otherwise I'm generally satisfied with the services offered. The solido military range you offer is very disappointing.... these are not the solido of my childhood. Me

The mould itself was good- the parts… The mould itself was good- the parts were of good quality and were an army green colour, making it easier to paint after assembling. However, it did not include decals. Also, the instructions omitted certain parts and were difficult to understand.

Service from 1001 hobbies was good Service from 1001 hobbies was good but what I bought was rubbish. I have bee flying radio control aircraft for over 40 years but made the mistake of buying a glider based on the description only to find that it appeared to be a very expensive toy and it went straight in the rubbish bin. You live and learn.

Great product quality. Delivery did not take that long considering coming from Europe to the US and the current health environment.

In the demonstration video of the item I chose you can see the box open and you can see that inside the pieces to be assembled are green but when the package arrived to my bitter surprise the pieces were white i.e. to be painted. They told me they would email me the free return form but to date despite my email reminder I have not received anything.

Absurdly poor choice of packaging Shipping overseas (from France to the UK) you'd think they would have used more sturdy packaging to protect the goods you've paid for. But no, all I got was a very thin jiffy bag to protect my item, resulting in the cardboard backing being damaged. Very surprising considering the collectable nature of the items they sell. Will not be shopping here again.

A catastrophe. still no reliable news and no parcels after 5 months!!!! And finally, after a number of unsuccessful complaints and phone calls: ""it's the post office's fault"" ""we don't understand"" ""let's go through the history together"" etc. answers next to products paid for when ordered and no follow-up or accountability with regard to their subcontracting. no seriousness no professionalism

This website doesn't really deserve a star. I ordered my item and had problems with my delivery address. But when these were finally resolved (supposedly) the goods were simply not delivered although they are (again supposedly) still in stock. Now six weeks after ordering, the shipment is not in sight. I can only advise against buying from this supplier and don't pay attention to the good reviews. Most of them are pretty obvious bots if you look at the name and structure of the rating.

Markus Werner The same as in other reviews prepaid goods allegedly no longer available although two pieces are still listed in stock on the website. We have now demanded a refund with all the comments here we can definitely wait a very long time for the money - NEVER AGAIN

The box was in very poor condition so I have to check the contents for damage first. The packaging was perfect, but the box containing the model was crushed in more ways than one.

I'm very disappointed, instead of telling us that the Kansas Baja is no longer manufactured, they cash in and say that preparation is underway. I don't recommend the 1001 hobbies site for radio-controlled cars?

You won't get the maximum number of stars with me! Knowing that I waited 2 months (May 4 July 7) before being delivered. During this entire 2-month period it was impossible to reach you on the phone, which I find unacceptable given the situation. I would particularly like to thank LAURE DARRICAU who unblocked the situation. I would like to thank her for her reactivity and her attentiveness. Who knows pe

Great choice of model paints Great choice of model paints. Delivery took a while but I think that's to be expected at the moment with the pandemic. When I contacted them I got a quick response from customer services to apologise and explain the delay was down to one paint being temporarily out of stock. Overall, good service and would use again.

A fair price on a discontinued model shipped internationally and received in 10 days what more can you ask for? And I didn't have to worry about getting scammed.
