Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Almost 3 weeks to receive my order.

Ordering system was fine, easy enough to navigate. Didn't realise that some items were on back order so delivery took a while, but not outrageous. Was a little disappointed with all the non standard labeling in French covering the English directions and caution labeling, something which I think should be addressed at source, especially when targeting the UK market. Otherwise everything is good, items as described and correct, good value for money, no complaints really.

Although on the site the products were available, it turned out that this was not really the case, hence the slightly long delivery time. Apart from that, it's OK.

Quick delivery but wrong address

I RECEIVED MY SECOND ORDER BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY FIRST ORDER WHICH WAS MADE ON JANUARY 25. I WAS TOLD MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT ON JANUARY 28 AND TO EXPECT DELIVERY ON FEB 10 THRU 15. THAT WAS NOT TRUE. I WAS ADVISED MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT OUT LAST WEEK (MARCH 1) BUT I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO TRACK IT. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELEIVE. AT THE END OF FEBRUARY I SENT AN E-MAIL TO 1001HOBBIES REQUESTING THAT MY ORDERS WERE TO BE CANCELLED AND MY PAYMENT REFUNDED. I WAS NOTIFIED A FEW DAYS LATER THAT MY SECOND ORDER WAS SENT OUT FOR DELIVERY AND A FEW DAYS AFTER THAT WAS TOLD THAT MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT OUT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANY ON LINE HOBBY SHOP PURSHACE. I DON'T THINK I WILL BE USING OR RECOMMENDING 1001HOBBIES IN THE FUTURE.

Had some problems with my first order but after contact it was resolved quickly and well

No worries about ordering on the site Delivery on time

Delivery on time, products well packaged.

all good

Great site, but many products are not available

The delivery time from start to finish was WAY too long

My parcel took too long to arrive. The first time was the deliveryman's fault, and even though the store was kind enough to send it back to me (that's why I'm giving you 2 stars and not 1) they weren't at all attentive to me. They kept telling me that it was promised that the parcel would arrive in a few days, but I just kept waiting and the parcel never arrived. I really missed the communication from the store. I had the impression that they didn't care and each person told me a different story. Up until the third week, no one told me that the delay was because you didn't have it in stock. If you'd given me this information beforehand, I'd have been more relaxed, but no, every day the answer was: don't worry, the parcel will arrive within 3 days. And so I waited 3 weeks.
Once I called for 1 hour and nobody answered. I understand that you can be busy but at least if you saw the calls, you could call me afterwards or send me an email to reassure me and tell me where my parcel is.
The handling was very bad, which is a shame, because I have very bad memories of this purchase. This purchase was a real nightmare.

Very disappointed by this order , Motorcycle too small !!!!!!!

To this day I still haven't used paints and airbrushes. I will be sure to give as soon as possible.

Free delivery not deducted, Paypal payment supplement,... Too bad.

Everything is fine, but the actual delivery time should be a little clearer.

Slow delivery but good product.

nil! delivery, customer service ... nil!

Bit more expensive than elsewhere but they had what I wanted and it was a very good service all round

The purchased kit (Amerigo Vespucci) with a price of over 1400€ is also available for 999€. Even if the seller is not responsible for the contents and quality of the kit, it is very much to be criticized that the deck planking, although described as walnut, is not walnut, that the included mahogany strips are not sufficient (I have already built many ships, also in museum quality, and have no above-average waste) and that the plans are somewhat often contradictory. Without really profound experience in building sailing ships, you can quickly despair. At least I received a voucher for 5 (in words: five) euros after a purchase of 1480€. There can be no complaints about the purchase process. But once again as a final assessment. 1001Hobbies is not responsible for the content and quality of the kit and the plans, but it is responsible for the clearly overpriced sales price.

The TAMIYA X50 color on your website does not correspond to reality. I wanted a light blue color and what I got is a dark blue color. I consider myself deceived because if I had known this I would have ordered a lighter color.

apart from the excellent shipping time

I did not receive the correct item ordered, I am waiting for a return proposal but free of charge.

Product arrived. Good condition. I am very satisfied.

Order received ahead of schedule. Very good packaging.

Order spent almost 2 weeks in "processing" and then delivery was also delayed.

The company is honest and will send you your orders. The only problem is that they accept orders for products they don't have in stock. As a result, it sometimes takes over a month for your order to arrive. They should communicate better about this, which they don't.

many choices

I still have a credit balance but I don't know how to use it.

Received the item as ordered.

Clear but difficult search on specific models

Order too long to arrive

Order conforms Fast shipping

The items received perfectly and according to what was ordered... except one of them that was not in stock... the score is so low because instead of giving me back my money paid for the undelivered item... they give me a voucher, and that seems to me not correct... I have complained and asked for a refund but they haven't even responded to me.

Compliant product with responsive delivery.

Defective product delivered late...

Received the order as specified.

More than unpleasant experience. We are literally taken for fools by the people in charge (who, by the way, lie to us in their rare communication emails).

I took an rc motor. Fast delivery and perfect packaging. The engine is nickel the spark plug was present . Thanks a lot!
