Very poor after-sales service: - very long response times - poor communication within the team - need to explain the same things several times (despite written records...) - promises not kept... I will not return. I don't recommend

Absolutely terrible service took over… Absolutely terrible service took over 14 days to arrive for items that fitted in a large envelope type package , no updates , it took them 5 days before it was sent from the day of my payment for the order, the worst online shop I have ever used , no way to realistically contact and when I did email no reply after 3 emails , obviously they don’t care about their customers at all ! will not buy from again ever

Mr. Rowell, We really regret your comment. Your order was prepared on July 27th, the day after your order was placed. Our carriers were overwhelmed with the sales and were late with the shipments. We understand your dissatisfaction, we invite you to contact us by phone. thanking you for your understanding, Sincerely, The customer care 1001hobbies.

Hello I received my R5 Turbo model in the post. But the package was folded in two. However nothing is broken inside. I find it shocking to see this kind of delivery principles.

Ordered on July 2nd and received on the 22nd! One item was missing and the parcel was damaged. After complaining to the after-sales service, the item was returned to me with the wrong reference number (although I had indicated by e-mail that the reference number was correct, but not the description). I therefore received an article that did not correspond. When I complained, I was told, not very politely, that it was I who had given the reference number. I'm not responsible for your problems with reference numbers.

Bought a model Ferrari for my son. Transaction went through easily enough. However, the model came from France and the tracking information (translated from French) suggested it might take 30 days before delivery. Contacted 1001Modelkits to ask for clarification and did not receive any reply. Slightly disappointing. The model did turn up, however, a few days later. So alls well that ends well. Just please, reply to correspondence.

Although the goods ordered were of high quality, I feel the service was slow for this day and age with misleading dates quoted on the tracking facility.

Order placed on July 10, received on July 28. However, the product was in stock. The order remained in process for nearly 15 days, except for the debiting of the invoice, which was immediate and not carried out on the day of dispatch.

I have seen some less than complimentary reviews of this company. Yes they are in France - and that made no impact on my getting delivery of my order. Sure it took a few weeks but there is the Atlantic Ocean to cross and honestly the supplies I ordered made it over here in reasonable time the price was right and I am quite satisfied.

1001 Hobbies was awesome. Even though I was in the states they took the time to respond to me on any questions I had and were able to let me know when my models would be available. My box was slightly squished but I'm sure that has to do more so with the shipping than this company. Overall highly satisfied with the quality of customer support and prompt shipping. Thanks so much for fulfilling my order all away across the Atlantic.

Frankly inadequate. 9 days to ship a small photo-etched part which was in stock, then 15 days to arrive from Northern France to the UK. So 24 days in total. The management needs to review its procedures. There are plenty of model suppliers out there.

My first order was fantastic and smooth. DHL was expansive but incredibly reliable. No problem with that. My second order was with Callisimo which casted a lot of uncertainty because of previous first hand -ve experience. 13 days now after they claimed it has departed French airspace and I am still waiting for it here in HKG. We shall see.

2 months waiting to receive my order when it was supposed to arrive in 2 days! A partial delivery of available products was supposed to be sent immediately, but never left. As a result, THE product I ordered from this site is now unavailable. And to apologize, a 5€ gesture (for an order of 80). MINABLE! I'll never order again

Delivery far too slow, over 15 days. Order arrived incomplete. Figure arrived broken in packaging. I had to contact the after-sales service (efficient) and they sent me a voucher to be used on my next order (including high shipping costs for Belgium). This is the last time I order on this site, which was so long ago.

Delivery much too late Logistics to be seriously reviewed I wanted a quick fix I wouldn't call on you again for quick delivery. More than 15 days for delivery. It's time to move to 2.0 delivery and get a head start on 3.0. Delivery times

I received your package from France to California USA in 3 days! Amazing service during this pandemic. My only complaint is that I did not realize the electric racetrack would have European plugs. Guess I missed that info in the product description. A quick run to the drug store to get an adapter solved the problem.

Very disappointed with this site that I thought would give me good advice. Almost no answers to my questions. Nothing about brushes... More com' and advertising than passion... Finally, it's ridiculous and misleading to propose big planes on tiny scales.
