Everything was fine, just a little awkward. First received French-language emails, then English. Homepage needs an overhaul.

Very wide range of products, from the simplest to the most sophisticated and technical. Very competitive prices. Fast delivery, often sooner than expected. THE reference. I recommend without hesitation.

I ordered several models from 1001 maquettes and they were all delivered in good condition, no problems there. However, there were two models for which I had a problem. One took two months to arrive after we had to send several emails to customer service to point out that it still hadn't arrived, even though we'd been charged. Same problem recently (order dated January 15) and still no delivery.

No product, no refund, no contact Ordered December 2, 2015. Was to be a Christmas gift. Couple days before Christmas I emailed. They said order was still being completed. No sign of order in January 2016. Tried contacting them again by email and phone. No return of phone calls or emails. No refund !!!! Horrible company. Absolutely the worst company I have ever dealt with!!!!!!

it would be good to signal when a product is not in stock to avoid waiting.

I made the reservation of a model through this page last week and I already have it at home. Approximate shipment in about 10 days but they notify you in advance. At all times you receive emails about the status of your order. Perhaps a little expensive shipping costs in relation to the time it takes to arrive.

The 1001 maquettes site is very good in itself, but the delivery time is too long! I'm being asked to rate the site even though I haven't received my last order yet.

Non-existant customer service. I placed an order for an item in error and tried to contact 1001 Modelkits. I phoned them four times and never got an answer. I sent two emails via the site's online message app requesting a change to the order. No reply. Now I get a message nine days later saying they shipped the order before reading my change request. I will NOT order from this company again. I need to know I can contact someone if I have a problem or question, and 1001 Modelkits does not fill that bill.

I paid for an express service and after 48 hours the order is still not shipped. I have even contacted them and they do not respond. I have opened a dispute with Paypal to see if they now respond. I add after their response: I am not going to modify anything so that everything is reflected. Once I opened the dispute they have put the order as shipped. I paid a higher price for it to be urgent by DHL and with tracking number which they did not provide me and also sent by Correos. I sent them two emails on their website to which they have not responded. Now tell me how you intend to defend your""Efficient customer service"" that you put on your website. Be thankful that I am not going to claim a measly £3 extra that I paid for a courier service that I did not receive and that I have upgraded my rating to 2 stars instead of 1 as it was before. Greetings and until

The site should be improved to refuse orders if out of stock, rather than letting customers pay, especially with the chronopost option, which means an emergency (birthday) to warn several days later that the item is out of stock.

Description of product on website is completely misleading I ordered the 1:72 EDUARD 7503 Figure RFC crew 1917. In their product description: I copied and pasted this from their site: Type of product : Model figures The figurines are sold in boxes with several figures: - in the 1:72 scale, the boxes usually contain 40-50 figurine soldiers, or 15 cavalry figurines. In reality, there were only 6 figurines. At $13.99 plus shipping, this is way too expensive and not as described. It was a rip off!

Response from 1001hobbies
Dear customer, As indicated, ""the boxes USUALLY contain 40-50 figurine soldiers"", however please note the number of figurines also depend on the product's price as smaller boxes like the one you purchased will contain fewer figurines. We apologize for the inconvenience and sent you a discount voucher as a compensation. Best regards, The 1001modelkits team

Too much time elapses between the communication of ""Parcel shipped"" and the tracking number ( e.g.: shipping date 12022016 to today 17022016 I have not yet received the tracking no.). Sincerely

Attractive price, correct Colissimo shipping costs compared to the competition, but shipping via Mondial Relay not great (25 kms AR) to pick up the order.

Failed They sent the wrong item and attempts to contact them by e-mail and phone have been ignored, but they still have a chance to recover if they respond.

Good product - poor communication with US customer The model is good quality & arrived within 2 weeks of ordering. However, the email confirmation quoted delivery at 9 months after ordering for some reason. When I called the customer service # with Boston area code to ask about this, no one ever answered the line and the voicemail was in French. Despite not knowing any French, I left a message anyway and never got a response. I emailed as well and did not get a response. This item was for an anniversary gift so timing was important. Glad they came through but if you have a question, you may have trouble getting an answer.

Nothing to complain about in terms of products, packaging or communication. Everything is top-notch. But delivery times are far too long: at least 3 days before sending the goods, then a short week to receive everything, i.e. a total of more than 10 days for 3 small pots of paint.
