I placed an order on May 27. The amount was immediately debited but no order confirmation. 15 days later I started to write messages through the support not a single response. I finally found a contact address on trustpilot. No response. It's now been over a month since the order was placed and I've had no response to my requests. Mostly, I've had time to realize that prices are lower with this company.

To flee like the plague they debit the money and products are then unavailable although competitors have it in stock they offer a credit and refuses any refund I intend to take legal action against them and to finish the show they do not answer the phone because of covid!

COMPLETE RUBBISH! THE POSITIVE REVIEWS SEEM TO BE THE OPPOSITE OF MY EXPERIENCE AND SEEM BOGUS! I placed an order for 279.65 Euros on June 13, 2020 and still nothing! No information, no reply to my emails, unreachable... even though they immediately cashed my money (how fast they are!)!!! I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN! Invoice reference: #FA200423

Duurt veel te lang. Duurt veel te lang. Bij vergelijkbare winkels krijg ik mijn bestelling de dag erna binnen (ook tijdens corona, dat kan dus niet meer als excuus worden gebruikt). Hier 10 dagen geleden besteld, en mijn bestelling is nog niet eens verstuurd. Bovendien meer verzendkosten betaald dan bij vergelijkbare websites. Kreeg de dag na mijn bestelling een mail van '1001hobbys.nl' en in het onderwerp '1001hobbies'. In de mail stond een link naar '1001hobbies.nl' terwijl die hele website niet bestaat. Ook nadat ik een poos geleden bij deze winkel iets had besteld kreeg ik een week erna allemaal reclamemails in 3 verschillende talen van ze. Op hun website laten ze alleen de 4- en 5-sterrenreviews zien. Get your shit together, 1001hobbies/1001hobbys/1001modelkits/1001modelbouw! Het is overduidelijk een zooi bij jullie.

Worst Supplier I have ever dealt with Possibly the worst supplier I have ever had to deal with & if there was a Zero rating I would give it. Placed an order and after 6 weeks nothing received and very limited communication from 1001. Decided to cancel order and requested a refund that has taken a further 6 weeks for return to me. At no time did 1001 answer what I call a straight question with a straight answer. The so called London phone number is either off or answer machine but then what would you expect when the company is based in FRANCE. So if you intend purchasing from this company be & you experience problems be prepared for a difficult time.

Poor Customer Service Thought this was a UK company as it said 1001modelkits.co.uk and it had a UK phone number. Found out after placing order that they are in France. The site does not have live stock details so when you find out the kits you have ordered are unavailable that is when the problem starts. Trying to get your money refunded is very difficult with delay tactics in reply emails. Had to use Paypal dispute process to get my money refunded. Would never use them again, extremely poor customer service. I Do not recommend this seller.

Priority shipping not honoured I ordered a model costing over 120 euros and elected to pay for quicker shipping which guaranteed delivery in 3 days. 10 days later the model arrived and my request to have the shipping costs refunded was refused as they claimed they could not refund postage as the models had already been shipped! If I had known this was a French company I would never have ordered from them.

Purchase of HMS Victory 134 cm model from Billing. The absence of plate 3239L-2 has been reported several times. Still no solution proposed! So I'm left with a 600€ model that I can't finish! I hope to be able to find the money to finish this boat with a more reliable company.

Month and a half without receiving my order. When I ask about their delivery date they reply that they do not have it in stock. The least decent thing was for them to have contacted me a week after I placed the order to notify me that they are out of stock, not a month and a half later when I was the one who asked about my order. I still have not received my money back.

Avoid,avoid, avoid !!! This company is beyond shady and I strongly recommend avoiding them! I placed an order with them yesterday and shortly after began seeing the bad reviews so decided to cancel. Well, they do not have anything in place to request a cancellation, you cannot reach them by phone and they ignore the emails requesting a cancellation. These are terrible business practices and I will be sure and warn all of the modeling groups I am in to stay away!

Basically, the site is fine, but my order (and the first on this site) still hasn't arrived. It's now been a week since the maximum delivery date passed... I know you have to be patient, but in addition to the rather high prices compared with other suppliers, I don't find it worth buying these arti
