The delivery time was correct, but I had chosen a delivery by mondial relay ( 7€ ) and I finally received my parcel in my letter box in a simple envelope with no tracking .... I could have paid less m

Nothing to say about my order placed on a Thursday and received by colissimo the following Monday. In general, I'd rather rate the 1001 Maquettes site: the advantage of this site is that it offers an absolutely plethoric catalog! Quite simply, are you looking for a particular model? A rare part? A special decal sheet... In short, there's a good chance you'll find it! The problem is that this advantage comes at a high price, which is why I only go to 1001 Maquettes as a last resort when I can't find what I'm looking for elsewhere. Su""classiques"" (like Airfix Revell Tamiya Academy etc...) the prices are well above the competition. On the other hand, navigation on the site is a bit messy, and among the abundance of references it's sometimes rather difficult to sort out. And when you're faced with a product from a Czech brand (for example) that's unknown to the general public, you feel a bit sick to your stomach before clicking""Add to Cart""...

I have been waiting for a month and they tell me that they can't find my order and that the mistake is mine. They do not give me the option to track my order and the carrier does not contact me. After this month they tell me that I have to pay again! I call the phone with prefix (+34) and they tell me that I am calling Paris. They are real thieves. DO NOT BUY FROM ES

Misleading product listing The item for sale listing stated it would be dispatched within 24hrs. It actually took them 5 days to dispatch. They then blamed me for choosing Eco post which wasn't cheap for the delay. As the item was bought as a gift and turned up too late to fulfil it's purpose I had to purchase elsewhere. When it did arrive I refused delivery and sent it back. I have heard nothing since, that is nothing I can understand as their communications are in French when they clearly know I am English.These people are arrogant, ignorant and misleading.

Out of stock, overpriced late postage. Ordered 17 packs of card dividers in various colours, left 4 packs out as stated out of stock on site. A while after ordering was notified they had to get stock in, even though it stated in-stock and i refreshed up until purchasing, and you cannot purchase if out of stock. Items came 2 1/2 weeks later in oversized box, with an invoice thats in French. Postage was way overpriced at over £7. Product was as described, which is the only plus.

Dear Andrew Harris, Your package's preparation started on the 4th of March, less than 48h after you did your order. In order to minimise the shipment's costs, we wait till all of your products are available and send them at once. You had chosen the standard shipment method, since we send our products from France, it is normal for it to take some time. The delay that occurred with your package delivery is not in our reach, but depends on the shipment company in your country (so in your case, the UK). Best regards, 1001Modelkits' customer service

Discrepancy of information between site (material available immediately) and actual inventory situation (material available in days) resulting in incorrect communication about material delivery. Information ""revisable"" regarding tracking of shipment and consequent status of material. The survey request arrived that not even the material had left and exchange of several communications to get information and tidbit final material delivered and from the site communication that the package had left. To you the appropriate comments. Check Vs site where you say ""In stock shipments within 24 hours"" and review your response. Only after my info request emails you wrote to me that the shipment would start upon receipt of the material ""present"" but not ""present"".

Paypal fees are wrongly charged, which is no longer allowed since 2018 and is also punished by Paypal. After I reported this to customer service and that I want my money back, I received an email from the other party that they would take care of it. Since 10 days nothing has happened neither the fee has been refunded nor the goods received. I then wrote to customer service again and again no reply! I have reported the case to PayPal. I cannot recommend this store with the best will in the world and will advise everyone against it!

I have been waiting for my parcel for 10 days now and the delivery time was stated as 5-7 days. In addition, the shipment tracking does not work. Too bad. Hope it arrives soon. 25.3.2019 Colors have arrived one color had run out.

The description of a model was wrong. The TU114 model could not be built at all, only another version could be added. The clarification of the complaint was very difficult. The hotline could not speak German on 3 calls.

VERY BAD EXPERIENCE!!!! UNACCEPTABLE TREATMENT! ZERO SERIOUSNESS!!! THEY NEVER GIVE ANY NAME AND TAKE A LONG TIME TO ANSWER OR NOT ANSWER!!!!! I placed an order on DEC 15th and the web gave error in the payment up to two times. I called by phone immediately to confirm the error and see how I could place the order but it went to voicemail and I left a message to which no one answered by phone or e-mail and a few days later without notice the model arrived at home. So I called again to return it since they had not confirmed the shipment at any time and I had to choose another option for the gift. After calls and e-mails in which they confirmed the return without charge, they charged me again the order on my credit card up to three times, reaching a total of almost 400€! Two months later I got the refund but they still refuse to refund the return charges when I was charged for the order.

Announcement of delivery within 24-48 hours (""if ordered before such and such a time"").... delivery after a month... (because an item was not available... So why not already send what's available????). The worst thing is that the unavailable item was not in the parcel we received, and we don't even have any tracking info for it.

Unfortunately almost three weeks delivery time! In addition, the order, which should not be folded, was sent in a padded envelope. Of course the letter carrier folded it and put it in the letterbox. ??

Some products are accompanied on the quote with the mention""Reduced price from 2 copies purchased"". I did not have this advantage with my last order, even though I ordered two copies of the same product.

The products great the delivery absolutely lacking because the postal service in case of non-delivery notifies you 3 or 4 days later (assuming it is true ) that you have passed and you have to go to pick up the package either on Wednesday or Saturday in a narrow time slot.
