Slow delivery time. Ordered a simple single sheet of decals. Don't know why it takes almost three weeks for delivery.

Material theoretically shipped on March 21, 2017 as of today April 05, 2017 not yet arrived. Made request for information via e mail of where the order is to date after a week no one has responded. I find the behavior unfair I do not think there will be new orders from us in the future. In fact situation I consider very dangerous untrustworthy. This attitude is a loss of trust you know when you pay but you do not know if you receive the goods. Situation not new but relapsed on another order that fortunately then arrived after several weeks. I suggest that if shipping is Vs weak point maybe it is better to change method while for email communication nothing before and nothing now. I feel sorry for you would have potential.

The model that I ordered in 1001maquetas I could find it in other web sites choose that one because they offered a. Service 2448 hours received the order. Service that by the way they are charging you for. I placed the order on Sunday March 26th and it arrived on Friday March 31st. They sent me an order confirmation email on Monday March 27th and I filed a claim on Wednesday. The model came perfectly and is not missing any parts or anything. For that part I am happy, for the other part I am not. So the next time I will try another site and I will evaluate the differences. Because if the model ordered on another site is going to arrive just as well and in less time... I'm not going to be happy.

I paid 17 € more for a shipping service that promised to deliver the package between 2 and 3 days and it took a week and a half. I contacted the company and the only thing they could tell me is that the package has already been sent and the scam of 17 € did not want to pronounce. Horrible I will never buy anything from them again.

I ordered a Jeep Wrangler in Nov 16. First I was told that the product was out of stock, even though it was advertised as being in stock on the site. I then received a discount voucher equivalent to the amount of the purchase so that I could order it at a later date. When it was available again, I realized that the coupon was actually worth 0€... :-( After contacting the customer service department, the problem was solved, but I realized that the coupon didn't count towards the shipping costs, i.e. 7€ for a purchase of 22! Not finding it normal to have to pay postage a second time, I receive a second coupon valid for postage this time. I placed another order and received a free figurine. After making the payment, I realized that the figurine had in fact been billed to me! Totally discouraged, I finally accepted the slight surcharge. I finally received my Jeep in

For a month and a half now, I've been promised a refund because the items I ordered were not in stock. The company has already been reported to the Paris DDPP for similar problems. Who should I contact? Who's calling the shots in this company? Who is capable of making a simple transfer to an account that has been given over and over again? What is to be done with the word given by members of the company? Shouldn't non-repayment of the sum paid be considered theft? WHO IS GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND MAKE THIS TRANSFER AS IT SHOULD BE MADE? Company not serial""Hello I'm following up this matter with my manager today. Unfortunately, I don't handle refunds directly. I will keep you informed. Yours faithfully ...And 4 more days to go!

Product conforms to the order and the delivery time was respected. I appreciated the message informing me of availability at the collection point, which is becoming more widespread. On the other hand, which explains the low overall score, the packaging is particularly defective: fragile cardboard, leading to partial crushing of the parcel, closing of the parcel with unprofessional green adhesive tape not suitable for long-distance transport, leaving access to the i

Awful service Good were only shipped after nearly 2 weeks ( despite showing as in stock ), they were only shipped after I said to cancel the order. Up until that point all I was getting told was that the goods will be sent soon. Furthermore the goods weren't sent by royal mail but by hermes , they very rarely deliver down my road. Oh and the items were left on my doorstep.

delivery time too long and explanations of delivery times anything but clear: order validation time + delivery time expressed in working days + delivery time. In the end, an order placed on 82 was delivered on 202. By the way, I ordered a Humbrol (HU033) enamel paint and received an acrylic paint.

to give a correct grade, you'd have to have received the package....who's wandering where? the carrier got it, then didn't...so whose fault is that? it's clear to me that I won't be making any more purchases from 10001 ...because it was supposed to arrive within 3 to 4 days... and now it's double..... so who's taking me for a fool? the deliveryman or 1001 maquettes ....who was supposed to give it as a gift to a kid tomorrow night? now it's ruined... I can't take it anymore!

Product ordered and never received. I was always the one who had to ask for news: the company is not responsive at all in responding to emails. Fortunately paid by PayPal and therefore refunded. I waited over a month to write this review to give the company a chance to fix the problem--not even an apology from them.... I rarely leave reviews but in this case I was taken for a ride so it seems only fair to let them know.

For a basic order (all the items ordered were supposed to be in stock) it took me 6 phone calls and several messages to get the situation sorted out, as the site announced that the order was being prepared but not dispatched. The reason given was that certain products were not in stock (I repeat that everything was in stock at the outset). After more than a month, the order was finally received. That's a long time! I'm not a grudge-holder, I'll place another order to see if I can get it.

I would give zero stars if possible! I ordered a model areoplane kit on the 8th of December, 2017 and it never arrived. I got an email saying it had shipped on the 17th of December and it still never came. Despite contacting 1001 Models numerous times via their website, email, Facebook and phone (answering machine, my French friend even left a message in French!) they have never responded to me. I am extremely upset as I am out of pocket and my 90 year old grandfather is missing his Christmas present. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY!
