Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Got only part of it, sent email to support without getting any reply.

Ordered paint specifically as the web site (and my order details) stated it was in stock. Two weeks after order I enquired about the delay, an update was told 1001Hobbies was still getting some paint from their supplier (I.e. not “in stock”). Three weeks after order I requested a refund as there was no progress, but was told that a refund was not possible as my order was now being compiled. Order was finally delivered more than 4 weeks after the order was made (and after I had given up waiting and purchased the paint from elsewhere.). I was not impressed!

Very bad opinion, I received a different product than what I ordered and unfortunately this happened twice. I have returned the product and am still waiting to hear back regarding its replacement or a possible refund

I am sorry but twice an item was submitted that was not what was requested. Despite repeated reports nn the inconvenience has been remedied.

Very long delivery times

Website is fine but aftersale is not good. Bought airbrush that did not work properly. But they could not do anything for me because the airbrush was used once and then the article could not be returned.Strange because you have to try such an article once to find out that the product does not function properly. I have now just ordered new parts elsewhere at my own expense. I don't think I will be buying anything here anytime soon, too bad because they have quite a lot of items.

Very long delivery times

I overpaid for it to arrive earlier and it arrived much later. And they did not want to give me a solution

I didn't receive my order SCUBFJLKQ correctly. One Item was missing, then I sent an e-mail on 16/03/2023 explaining the situation and received an automatic message saying that the service 506065 was opened. But so far I didn't get any answer from 1001hobbies after 5 days.

Great selection, high prices, no response to an email.

Did not receive what I ordered, small unpainted parts were delivered 🥴

The delivery did not contain one of the products purchased and I had to insist a lot to finally get the information that the product was no longer in stock. It would have been more honest to inform me that the product was not availableK.

One of the products I ordered was not listed as out of stock but turned to be out of stock anyway. I wanted to decline the order of the second product since it is useless to have without the one that was out of stock. I mailed the service team with this request and to ask for a refund but received no response and the second product was sent to me anyway which I have no use for. Very dissapointing!

Product arrived broken after taking almost a month to arrive. Emailed customer service on march 1st, got a response saying someone would get back to me (most likely automated) and still haven’t gotten a response on march 17th. Product cost me $30 with shipping, very disappointed. The mug was a gift for my dad and we still haven’t even heard anything about if they will send a replacement or refund me. Do not recommend.

I still haven't received my order. I sent a sworn statement that I had not received it. Since then, no news. I've been ordering from this site since 2014, and I find it strange not to hear from them at the slightest hitch.

Very poor customer service.
Advise everyone not to buy from them. 4 months waiting for my refund.

Order in good condition but non-existent customer service and delivery time of approximately 1 month.

Weeks of delivery time

Just received the package with the order I placed on 27/02 and opening it I found an unwelcome surprise: instead of the ordered model in the package was a card game in French. Considering the fact that I placed the order exclusively to have this model, which is now not even available on the site anymore, and that I don't know what to do with the card game, I wonder: how do we solve this problem? I have tried again and again to call alnumber but after two or three minutes of waiting with the recorded voice no one ever answers and you are invited to call back later. I wrote to the contact address, but again only the automatic reply.... Of course, the "Customer Services" chat on your homepage doesn't work either: you press on the button and it gets stuck on "charging" indefinitely.
Update after a week: I finally managed to contact the company: an operator from abroad answers who is unable to get the picture, gives with pre-cooked answers and the only thing he manages to do is to activate the procedure for return and refund. I was assured by phone that I would be contacted by the shipper to pick up the package at home but, reading carefully the voucher sent to me for shipping I realized that I had to take the package to the Iteliane Post Office. Result? An hour in line just to place the package at the counter. WORST.Today, exactly one week after my shipment, I still have not received feedback from the seller.

Not clear on website what language the product is in.

Order placed on December 9, 2022, received on March 10, 2023, i.e. 3 MONTHS and 1 day, nothing to add.

My order was sent in two shipments and I still haven't received the second package to date.

This shipment consisted of a missing item, a 1/48 model. However, I received something that looks like Radio Control car parts. I've been waiting for a month and I don't know whether to reclaim my order or resell these parts.

STILL NO BMW ISETTA!! I SENT YOU TWO EMAILS ABOUT THIS ...ONE ON YOUR SITE AND ONE VIA MY MAILBOX !!! STILL WAITING FOR A REPLY FROM YOU .....!!!

Received the box I ordered with all the primers in them broken, the package was contaminated and it was stinking so much of chemicals that Royal Mail had to wrap it in a bag. Now I'm asking them fir a refund they want me to return it to them first!!! Seriously ehich carrier would ship a box contaminated with hazardous chemicals back to France?
Do not buy from this company at all! Save your money and a headache dealing with the customer service.

Paint in pot partially dry: thick film on surface.

Not at all satisfied

Orders not received. Over a month to resolve the problem and it's still not over because the refund does not correspond to the amount paid. Customer service unreachable by phone and unresponsive to emails. I'd advise against it.

I have ordered and paid in advance for 2 key fobs (F 14 Tomcat), comes only one and Andre goods with the ordered, all where else, very bad ...!!!!

It says a wide range but that does not take away from the fact that the delivery takes a very long time, this will definitely be the last time I will place another order. There are more modeling shops where the range is just as large probably greater, delivered within 1 or 2 business days.

product does not conform to the order

Poor instructions, especially for paint. Poor customer service as a part was broken in the pack and they say they dont make them anymore??? Finally, poor fitment. Will not buy another Trumpeter product.

No shipping information, no response to phone or email.

The model graff Zeppelin is rediculously expensive at over £60.00. It is also very badly finished- sprue everywhere and the parts are poorly finished. I would have returned this if the supplier was in the U.K. extremely disappointing

The site itself is well designed and shipping is relatively quick. Ordered on 21.01. and delivered on 25.01. Can't complain about that. Unfortunately the battery was/is defective. Since then, extra forms have been filled out by 1001 Hobbies, photos have been taken and over 5 emails have been sent, but so far we have been put off with the fact that the dealer has not yet replied. This is really unacceptable...

Funko pop items arrived damaged and customer service not responding.

Shipping time too long.

Late, bad and never, that's how their deliveries are and when contacted via telephone, very bad attention, I will never buy from them again.

Hello, I received the order, the airbrush I ordered is great but the 2nd item (swastika decal) is not the right one.

24/1/23 ordered, now 27/2 still haven't received anything. Ridiculous!
