Defective! First weeks of delay, then damaged shipping, then weeks of delay with the warranty. Beware of this supplier,

The model kit arrived in good condition and time, considering the package had to pass through customs.
The email containing the delivery information though, was displayed in French, and even when I selected the Union Jack icon to specify UK language, only a very small portion of the page was translated to English. But no other issues. All was good.

A wide range of models, but stock not held in the UK. Hence a long wait for delivery

Very bad. Order shipped from France wrapped in nothing but some bubble wrap! ANY model kit needs to boxed in a larger box and then padded with newspaper, bubble wrap etc. your order arrived promptly but was crushed in transit. NEVER ship a model without boxing in a bigger box and padding it. You must be stupid not to know this

Placing an order on 28/01 and after complaining to ECB getting the shipment on 22/06 is not advertising.

Another mistake - a small one, admittedly, but a mistake all the same, when all you have to do is check what's in the box that's going to the cy Shame and irritation!

Once the problem with the initial failed order was resolved everything went well. I would request that a purchase could not be made if the product is not available. I see a big problem with the initial availability check. Thank you att Juan Emilio.

good site but the items I'm interested in (models, 1/72 figures, WW2 and accessories) are more expensive than on other similar sites.

One of the resin detail sets had a broken exhaust and a broken "protective" flange. No big deal, but I believe additional protection packaging should be implemented. This would likely have prevented the breakage. Also I feel the shipping time was considerable, even with the pandemic, though I realize the postal system was the culprit here..

Super well packaged, everything is ok, nothing is missing. Just one thing that is not great, the waiting time to get his package. In fact often what we order is not really in stock, so we will have a small 15en days waiting before having our order. Nothing serious but it would be nice to know if it is in stock or in stock " deferred " when you order. thank you to the whole team and looking forward to recommending you.

Had a problem with damage to one of the kits in this order. Reported it, sent pictures, replied to emails, but got no resolution for the damage that occured as a result of box selection and packaging.

When you send an order abroad, you have to deduct French VAT and other taxes, because I had to pay Swiss VAT and customs taxes, which makes your models much more expensive than buying them locally.

I ordered an expensive boat model. When it turned up the box was battered and some of the parts were missing. Despite promises from 1001Models to solve the problem I have received nothing. I let them have all the information I could, but despite this and e-mails back and forth for months I have received nothing. The model itself is excellent, but no good unless complete. I will never deal with this company again, their customer services are appalling. I recommend anyone who wants a model buys from a company who actually gives a toss about their customers.
Response from 1001hobbies
Mr Belalmy,
Thank you for your email. We regret this incident and apologise for the delay. Our customer relations department has contacted you. You have indicated that some parts were missing. We are still waiting for the sheet necessary to open your after-sales service with the supplier.
Thank you for your patience,
