Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Veeeeery slowwwww...... Very impressive site with lots of goodies for the modeling enthusiast but... I registered and placed my first order for 4 decal sheets on April 1st. The prices all over the site were within the market range. But the postage charged (8.90€) was excessive even for registered mail for a 20 gr. envelope. All the items were marked as available and 3 of them had 5-6 day shipping time indicated. I paid thru Paypal on the same day. The next day I received an e-mail message that the order has been processed and that I will receive my order in 6-8 days. After ten (10) days (on April 11th) I received another e-mail saying that my order has been shipped!!! Because the shipment had not arrived on April 29th, I sent an e-mail asking for details and where do they ship from. I got an answer the next day saying that they ship from France and that surface mail (!!!) might take longer to arrive. On May 12th I wrote again to their customer service complaining about the long delay in their delivery and asking for an answer. I also opened a dispute in Paypal's resolution center. I got a message the next day saying that the envelope must be lost and that one of the decal sheets was no longer available. I was given the option to buy something else from the site and so I did. The new order was processed the next day (May 14th), I received an e-mail on May 19th that it will be shipped soon (!!!) and finally an e-mail on May 21st that it was shipped (more than a week after the new order was placed). The envelope arrived on May 27th which is within the normal range for an intra EU 1st class mail. Mind you the postage affixed was 1,35 € !!!! I have to point out that I trade over the net constantly and never had a problem with lost mail in over 600 transactions during the last 8 years or so. There is something definitely wrong with their very slow shipping and equally slow customer response service. Possibly the items sent from the EU are not in stock there and have to be shipped from elsewhere thus the one week between ordering and shipping. I cannot detect any malicious intent but I am skeptic about any future purchases from them......

good site but needs improvement in speed

with only one order my opinion wouldn't be worth much

HAS MANY OF THE THINGS I NEED

after waiting 19 days for the order and complaining to the courier company, what else could I say?

I placed an order with them and a week ago I received a different material at my home than the one I had purchased. In the last week I have sent them two emails explaining the incident and they have not even answered me.

THE PROBLEM WITH ""CHRONOPOST"" IN COMPARISON WITH THEIR CONCURENT IS THAT CHRONOPOST DOES NOT CALL THE CUSTOMER AT ALL??? I WAS AT HOME THE DAY AND TIME CHRONOPOST CAME BUT THE DRIVER ONLY PUT THE NOTICE IN MY MAILBOX!!!!

Very wide choice on the catalogue""aviation"" good communication in case of dispute. I would recommend them.

I received the model I had ordered on time, but it was damaged. I returned it immediately, but only received a new copy after 5 weeks. In the meantime, when I called customer service, I was told that they couldn't tell me anything and that I had to write an e-mail ... In short, an after-sales service that's really not up to scratch and really not r

Having placed one order and being satisfied I will not delay in making more purchases. Thank you

GLUE ALL OVER MOTHER""S TABLE, Won't be able to set down for week! I won't buy anymore that you must use glue on. Mom threw them away after I glued a piece of a plane to the table. I have to pay to get the table refinished.

Not enough choice in recent sports cars lacks a forum on model building. It would be better to be able to choose your brand of paint with equivalent references between brands. Otherwise great

the service is reliable and the quality top-notch - definitely worth recommending, it all depends on the manufacturer's brand.

Good price.fast shipping

Excellent sitoda recommend.

Rubbish. Utter, unutterable rubbish. Their internet stock levels are a fiction. Their emails re unavailability do not agree with the items they actually send nor with later emails they send. When they do send something, they send the wrong items. Perhaps next time they should make sure the guide dog is awake when picking stock how an American landing craft can look like a Tiger II I don't know clever German camouflage I suspect. Avoid this firm like the plague. My advice is to buy from (external reference) in the UK. I will from now on.

I ordered material on day 652014 on day 752014 I receive an e-mail that the package is readythen nothing.Meanwhile within a week I send 3 e-mails asking for information. No response. Whereupon I contact Paypal and open complaint. The day 1552014 arrives E-mail telling me that the package is ready (but it was not already 'a week before? and I tell him ...)) and that I will be 'sent shortly.The package arrives on 2052014 perfettoben packed and with all the contents directly from France.peccato really for the long time and for the bad communication with the customer (see the other negative reviews all focused same problems) because the store and 'well stocked and deserves. I hope this review will serve to improve (but a lot) this negative side.

They do not answer my emails and do not give me any information about when they are going to send me my order, it does not seem to me a correct customer service.

The order finally arrived. I don't think I will buy from this company again

I can not comment on the model because as of today I have not yet received it. When I receive it, I will send you my opinion.

Despite an item being in stock and an advertisement indicating fast delivery, it still takes several days for the item to arrive. Even after the confirmation e-mail indicating that the parcel has been dispatched, it can take almost 2 weeks. For example, I ordered on April 29 and received a confirmation e-mail on April 30. On May 2 I received an e-mail saying that my order had been dispatched, but to date (May 11) I've received nothing... On the positive side, the item search system is well done, and there's a wealth of items on offer& the rare bird"". It's the shipping time that needs to be improved, especially since you're paying shipping costs for fast delivery.

More than 17 days waiting for the order without any explanation from 1001 maquet

the model and bacler les finition nul

I have purchased on more than one occasion the prices are market prices fast shipping and normal cost. Safe and reliable site

An easy way to find all materials without leaving home

Very satisfied with very fast delivery!

Available to listen to us clear precise deadline met ... what to ask d

Both the main packaging and the original box of the toy soldiers arrived punctured and broken. Fortunately, the toy soldiers were intact.

Never again the company 1001 modellbau I have paid and got nothing more capitalistic is not possible. Helmut Seichter Erfurt.

Order well received but the delivery times are very long. 9 to 12 days announced for the economic I do not understand why the times are so long for national shipments. I received my order within 14 days. Unfortunately, one of the models had the box stamped at one corner, fortunately without any damage.

I EXPECTED BETTER SHIPPING. EVEN THE TIMES WERE NOT QUICK (I paid on March 19 the package was shipped on March 28 it arrived to me on April 4)

Order placed on 2801 also paying extra to have expedited shipping part of the goods received on 2802 after continuous requests for timelines and explanations about the lentency of the supply. Last product of the order arrived on 0404 after my express request to receive at least the products in stock. Only explanation received ""error on the part of one of our suppliers"" and uan promise of discount on next shipping charges. Final verdict very bad no comprehensive explanation received luckily I had chosen express shipping.

Company that keeps its promises. No unpleasant surprises, even if some delivery times are a little long (standard rate). Chronopost is more expensive but much faster. A good choice of models and many references available.

Hello It would be interesting to have more details on certain products. Example with what I have just ordered (Faller road). I had to go to another site to get information about length and width. Despite this, the information was not good and I don't have enough. Domm

The last order I placed on the site did not arrive. Colissimo indicated that it had been returned due to an incomplete address. I sent a mail to 1001 maquettes explaining the problem and asking for the parcel to be sent back to me - giving my address - but I haven't heard anything back.

I received my order as expected within 10 days. The material is as ordered. When I have needs I will not hesitate to consult them. see you soon.

Unfortunately, the prices are exorbitant and the selection is too small for my needs.
