Since my last review still no refund only ideal promises of customer services contacting me to arrange refund. Maybe they bissy blockading Jersey? Maybe soon I can go direct to there offices in person and cause a fuss and that way I,ll get my refund.

All items I believed were in stock, then I Had no further communication after order confirmed,due to covid i was prepared to wait a little longer for the delivery.
emailed about two later to find out what was happening to then be told all items where out of stock.i was offered a credit or refund but chose the refund.
Just bad communication.

They are scamming UK buyers as they are trying to give the impression that they are UK based, with their .co.uk website, and London contact phone number. They are actually in France, and so you must pay much more money in import fees. Don't buy from this fraudulent company if you are not in the EU.

Hello,
We regret this comment. We regret that you did not see that we ship from France, as indicated during the validation of your cart.
Due to the current COVID restrictions and the Brexit, shipping times may be 3-5 days longer than expected.
Please note that orders above 135GBP may require additional costs upon reception. Thank you for your understanding.
We regret this situation and apologize to you.
Sincerely,
Laure

I'm sorry, but when you buy for 170 euros in two weeks and 5 days later they give you a 10% discount, you feel like you're being taken for a fool. I don't appreciate it. We'll be sure to get back to you when you mention it.

I find that you are often out of stock and that's a shame, I had ordered 2 bottles and you couldn't because you only have one and that still makes me lack today.

The only drawback: a hole was missing to fix part A 11 to the Nimitz hull. Luckily I have a drill and very small 1 and 2 mm drills. If I hadn't had this equipment, I don't know how I would have done it. I hope I won't have any more surprises like this...

Products delivered in conformity and functional, but the times announced on the site are largely exceeded. Batteries ("in stock, delivery 5 to 7 days") ordered on 03/31 were delivered to me on 04/30. The mention "IN STOCK" and the recall of 2 French warehouses should be modified, since the products are stored in China!

It would be excellent if you reduce a little the shipping time for the rest all good. Note of merit the convenience of conversing in Italian without any language difficulties. Kudos to the staff.

Hello Extremely long delivery time: almost 3 weeks to slip 2 bottles of thinner into an envelope.
They need to review their logistics

Wide assortment of products, you can also find puzzles now sold out elsewhere at affordable prices. Only downside the high shipping costs and the 16 days the courier took us from Normandy to northern Italy. I pointed this out via an email and the very kind Monique partially refunded my shipping costs. I will definitely be back.

This web site appeared to be a U.K. website, but item was sent from France, custom charges were more than 25% of the cost of the item which was not anticipated as bought from a U.K. website. Item did however arrive quite quickly but had some minor damage that was not worth sending back for. Overall ok but not sure i would use again.

I was hoping for more from the Zombi Pirates but unfortunately only the Davie Johns crew and that's a pity, definitely room for improvement!

Once again, an error in the products sent. I immediately informed and..... NO reaction. It's a pity. A few words to reassure the customer and repair the error (not serious) would suffice. It's not done. Why?......

Reliable store, shipping taken care of. I did not give 5 stars for 2 reasons:somewhat slow shipping (about ten days) and the surplus that is charged by paying with PayPal.

Quite disappointed with my order. I ordered a product that I had ordered before from 1001hobbies but what I received was different from the previous time. I recommended the correct product from a competitor's site, too bad.

At first I was afraid it was a fake website and I could whistle for my ordered stuff. I did not receive an order confirmation and the items remained in my store manager after payment. Important tip: pay with credit card then you are always insured. It is difficult to get in touch. I only received an email confirmation of my order after about 2 weeks. From then on everything went fine. I got a nice mail with track and trace and a message when the goods had arrived in the Netherlands. The goods are shipped from France so it takes a while before you receive it. My order looked neat and was shipped fine. Really important to pay by credit card because the bank withdraws your money the moment you don't receive the goods. Paying via iDeal at such a time means that you simply lose your money if your order does not arrive. It put my mind at ease. However, I will think twice before ordering here again given the lousy communication.
