The carrier ""La Poste"" are USELESS. According to the tracking they attempted delivery on 611 again on 711 then again on 1411 and the next notice I have is on 2611 which says they are returning it to sender. They have not called me on my cell phone to arrange a time for delivery nor have they left a note or anything. They have done nothing to try to contact me. Inexplicable. Logically as I think almost everyone I am not 24 hours a day without leaving home but it was as easy as making me a call .... Time wasted now to claim the money and I'm left without the product....

The lead time from order to delivery is around 3 weeks. What's more, 1001 MAQUETTES is about twenty euros more expensive than its competitors, when you compare the same product of the same brand, of course. I wouldn't buy from 1001 MAQUETTES again.

Well, on November 28th, having requested a refund for an order placed on October 7th that never arrived, I still haven't received the money and when you ask them they always postpone it to the following Wednesday. This smells like a scam. Do not buy here, no way. You will be left without an order and without money. I update: I have checked my account and there is no

Package not packed with sufficient care. A simple cardboard box too large for its container, closed with a single piece of tape on the top...as a result, the box arrived crushed and even torn in places. The box containing my model was therefore folded and one of the parts inside was detached from its support...free warning as nothing was broken, but it makes me reluctant to recommend anything from you...when we know how little care the postal service takes with parcels, we owe it to ourselves to do better!

Model BF109 =117€ ripe for the garbage can I have never seen such an amateurish model anywhere. Models are canceled and sent back, but I have been waiting in vain for the money (5 weeks), it is and remains a bad store in France.

Long turnaround on getting product Long turnaround on getting product. I think there is a scam going on. Leave it to the dirty francois. Go figure. Crappy offer to refund 10 bucks because of their ignorance. Will not use them again. Then I get a generic stupid FRENCH apology ( whatever that’s worth) saying I got 10 bucks refunded...ooooooooohhhhh! That’s like half off the ridiculous shipping that mysteriously changed. Half assed customer service by the lazy French.

Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately your order was shipped with another transporter instead of DHL, therefore the delivery took longer. So we have refund you $10 of the shipping costs due to the long delivery. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any question. Best regards, The 1001Modelkits Team

Bad experience, my order was supposed to be a surprise for my husband's birthday. Order placed paid confirmed 7 days later still nothing. The explanations of 1001 maquette incomprehensible and unjustified. Supposedly shipped. But the model was resold to another person. Conclusion forced to change model. So very disappointed.

Very disappointed one of the two models ordered is impossible to assemble the parts""coques"" are not compatible what is a pity it is not to have follow-up either a refunding or an exchange if another article. No more replies to emails sent.

Dubious! Shipping took far too long. I didn't like the item and it says on the website that you have a 30-day right of return. Yes, you do. You have to pay the return costs to France yourself and then there is only a credit note that you can redeem in the store. It's not clear anywhere that you can't get the money back. I only wanted the one item and will never be able to redeem this voucher. Nothing but expenses. Support took 8 days to reply to an email. That is unacceptable. I wonder if they will comment again: ""I don't understand...."" Sorry I also don't understand how you can run an online business in such a way.

On an advert on the site I had found a miniature plane which was to be supplied in two copies and no scale was specified on the article. But what a disappointment when I arrived..... first of all there was only one copy in my parcel instead of the two promised and moreover the miniature plane was enormous and looked more like a toy than a miniature. Since then, I've filed a complaint and sent my plane back, and I'm still waiting for an answer for mo
