I ordered 2 airplane models for 121 euros but when I received them they were small. I wasn't expecting that given the relatively low price.

Wrong model. Message: Hi I received this order today, 4/11. However you have sent the wrong model. As you will see from my order I ordered model HA7501, which was the one advertised, including photos, on your web site. You have sent me model HA7506, which has a completely different colour scheme. Order ID: 89285 Product: BOEING P-26A PEASHOOTER Sent this to 1001 on 4/11 which they confirmed they had received. Have heard nothing since, now 11/11.

For my part, I find this site to be a real dud. I order three articles all in stock in the category""accessoires train"". Still no delivery after 23 days. Sent three emails with no reply. Impossible to contact them by phone as the customer service number is a disc which asks you to contact them by email (to which they do not reply). I make a claim via Paypal on Friday and miraculously on Monday I'm told that an item is missing and I'm offered a credit note or the possibility of ordering other accessories. I replied that I was no longer interested and asked for my order to be cancelled. Once again, they turned a deaf ear and sent me my order with a credit note, which did not include shipping costs. (forced sale) Given the small sums involved, and to put an end to this spiral, I ordered other accessories for the amount of the credit note, again with shipping costs at my expense. I've just received my second order after 15 days. In the meantime, to make sure I didn't miss my grandson's birthday, I ordered from l'atelier du train, which I received in three days.

I ordered an item from the store on 21.10.2016. This was reported to me on 24.10.2016 as shipped but unfortunately has not arrived until today 07.11.2016. Something like this does not have to be the fault of the model store. What is annoying, however, is that my attempts to contact the seller - apart from an automated reply - were simply ignored. So I have no goods and with this type of customer service it will be extremely difficult to get back the money I have already paid. I should probably close the account I created...

Order placed on 1610. Delivery estimated between 1710 and 2010 according to the site. Some of the items in my order were mentioned as having a 10 to 12 day lead time. Today is 111, a public holiday, but the 12 working days have passed and despite 2 reminders by e-mail, no response. No news of the order. Good choice of products but not serious about delivery times and customer information. And from reading the various reviews, I'm far from being a good customer.

Hello I ordered a Jouef starter set on this site and now some parts are missing from the box. I contacted them and found young people who know absolutely nothing about model railroading. I don't think I'd recommend this site to anyone or that I'd order it myself.

After almost a month and a half I am still waiting for my order. I would not worry if there was communication but after several failed attempts to contact them by email to know their status I decided to open a dispute with Paypal because it seemed to me that they were teasing me. Needless to say they have not even responded to the dispute but luckily Paypal is responsive and I am confident that I will at least receive my money back.

What A RIP OFF I paid £26.00 for what I thought was a Supermarine Spitfire T9 two seat trainer with decals model kit, but turns out I paid £26.00 for badly detailed and moulded bits of plastic. I now have to purchase a Supermarine Spitfire MK 9 model kit to obtain the model I thought I was purchasing. They need to make it very clear on the website that you will be paying of OVERPRICED bits of plastic.

Good the 10th of this month I made 2 orders also quite high price to reach the canary islands total that I do not care because it was for a birthday gift which has already passed dates you andais dissatisfied with the disappointments that you produce in your customers but we and I especially in my case besides taking quite the order that in the end it does not matter as long as it arrives in favorable conditions you are not able to answer me through the web messages that I sent that are not few and also important. important One was for the selection of colors that I wanted for the model which supposedly I can choose and I put which I wanted with their respective reference numbers total that you passed everything and you sent me the colors that you considered the next problem is the tracking of my order through DHL to say that the order is not found anywhere I asked you where I could look at it and again you ignore my question that I have to think that my order drifts to know in what conditions it will arrive and when it will arrive? I don't understand anything but if out of 20 people 19 consider the management of the company to be bad, then we are not the ones who are unfair but you are.

I placed an order at the beginning of July and the parcel never arrived. After checking with the site at the end of August, they offered to cancel my order. And this day the 09-09-16 they announce me that refunding cannot be made since the parcel would have arrived the 20-07-16........ I advise you not to place order on this site. today 24-12-16 In spite of a registered letter to the manager no answer.

Not a UK Company-'1001 Modelkits' I was furious that they gave the impression you were ordering from the UK when I fact they are located in France. After almost a week, I got an email to say ""your order is being processed"" say what?! How hard is it to go pick 2 cans of spray varnish and pack them? After another week my item arrived. Why would I wait 2 weeks for an order from France, when I can buy exactly the same product WITHIN the UK. Misleading.
