To sum up, I placed two orders with them and had problems each time. In addition, I had to return a product that was not the right one to my chain.

I ordered a yellow Fleischmann Shell wagon after requesting confirmation of availability by email specifying the color and marking of the wagon - confirmation of ""dispo"" - Received a silver wagon with no relation to the one ordered - Nothing to do to obtain a refund n of the purchase - Customer service only there to not answer Absolutely avoid this seller The 2304 - Following response from 1001 maquettes indeed they offered to return the wagon I c""At your expense and with file opening fee of 3 Euros"" This is how 1001 maquettes assumes its errors! Le 3004 - Following 1001 Maquettes' last message, I contacted customer service again, who agreed, after discussions, to a full refund of the purchase price and reimbursement of the cost of returning the non-compliant item. So as far as I'm concerned, the dispute is over. I'd just like to point out that the purchase took place on March 21. So if I keep just one star for the review (very bad first experience, but I'd like to point out that Customer Service has always been very courteous on the phone), I'm withdrawing the ""A FUIR - dishonest store"" to say ""You must insist that they take responsibility for their shipping error"".

Very large choice of models and accessories. But because there is always a but delivery times are too long several orders already placed and do not be in a hurry to receive his order Last order placed April 4 received April 17 and more a product error. Be careful you have competitors much faster (place 2 orders one at 1001 maquette and another at a competitor place orders at the same time the designer deliver in 4 days while 2 weeks for 1001 maquette and with a product not delivered because out of stock although it was available to order) Soyer p

I had booked express delivery to receive the parcel within the week. I didn't hear from him for the whole week, and it was only the following week that I received an e-mail telling me that my parcel was on its way. So I received it well after the 4 to 6 days I'd expected when ordering. I sent an e-mail before receiving it to find out why it was late and why I had received duplicate e-mails with errors in the automatic e-mails (one sentence did not appear correctly). I was waiting for an explanation. I received a few lines of reply with no apology, no explanation and, above all, no answers to my questions. So I sent another e-mail and I'm still waiting for an answer. This company doesn't manage after-sales service and customer relations at all. I'm very disappointed. I'd read some good comments, especially about deliveries, but apparently not everyone is on the same page.

Virtually unprotected packaging (a small piece of crumpled kraft paper insufficient to protect the miniature during transport. On unpacking, I see that the car's windscreen is broken. I wrote to 1001 maquettes...who merely offered me free delivery on my next order..... even though this was a standard commercial offer (I had already received an e-mail to this effect before delivery!). In short, deplorable service. And the customer service email was not signed and had no telephone number. TO BE AVOIDED

1001 maquettes makes a mistake in my order and I report it. They ask me to send back the defective item at my expense and offer me free shipping on my next order?! Too nice guys! You're bordering on complete amateurism! I'm done with them

If I hadn't been threatened with a ""hand courante"" for not respecting the purchase contract for a model and a sheet of ordinary decals, I'm sure that three yes three months after the order I'd still be waiting for my pack of 1001 Maquettes. So you'll understand that from now on I'm not taking this site very seriously, unlike other English, German, Polish or Czech sites, which are much more efficient.

Hello Sir and Madam, I'm writing to inform you that my order has arrived a second time in poor condition. The order concerned flat paint for copper and white decals. When I placed my first order for copper decal paint, it arrived crumpled, so I sent you a message to let you know so that my next order wouldn't arrive in the same condition. Unfortunately, it arrived crumpled again.

I strongly advise against this site. After placing an order, everything went wrong: misleading communications, product delivered 7 days late in a damaged parcel. No response to my emails and phone calls. Basically my worst e-commerce experience in 10 years. I don't recommend si

Order received 1 MONTH after payment. Computer problem when placing the order but parcel sent anyway as an economy parcel. 1001 maquettes could have made up for this by sending a parcel.

Poor, Slow Service, Incomplete Order Many item not in-stock despite web order saying they were in stock ready to ship. For items not in stock, I was issued a ""credit memo"" to be used on next order without my permission. I can't imagine ever ordering again so I am now fighting for a refund. This was the poorest experience I have had ordering on the internet in 15 years.

They offer a lot of good things that you can't easily buy elsewhere. There is something for everyone, but unfortunately the store is based in France, which is noticeable in the delivery time and payment.

Very good choice of models... Reasonably priced... On the other hand, delivery is a little slow (allow 4 working days to make your package). Packaging needs improvement (I received a notification from the post office indicating a packaging defect which delayed delivery by 1 day! Fortunately there was nothing missing

They pretend to be a company based in Germany. Hotline only in French. Extremely long delivery times or goods do not arrive at all. Request for a refund of the purchase price is ignored.

I have been disapointed so far because I received the wrong order and have had no response from customer service to date... The processing of my order seemed to be OK. I received timely updates regarding when the products would be received for shipping. I also received a notice when the order was being shipped. I received a shipment in 2 to 3 days as was stated. However, I received the incorrect shipment. My order #14439 was not what I received. I received order #14539 which is not mine. I have sent 2 e-mails to customer service ([email protected]) and have had no response yet. The Website states that Customer Service is important to them. I have seen no evidence to date. A customer service telephone number for English speaking customers would be helpful. I am awaiting a response regarding what to do with the incorrect shipment I received and what is the status of my order for which payment was accepted.

8 weeks from purchase to delivery My credit card was charged 29Dec12, and my order arrived 10Feb13. 1001modelkits claimed a delay in their supply chain, but all I ordered was 15 1oz Tamiya paint jars. I will never order from them again.

1001 had what I needed at a reasonable price! I needed some Aber treadplate and 1001 Models had it in stock. The real irony is the North American importer for Aber lives a mile away but was out of stock at the moment. The delivery speed was resonable with no undue Customs hiccups coming across the Canadian border (and minimal snow delay as well). Satisfied first tim customer, I've bookmarded the site for future supplies. Cheers,
