Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Exceptional Trader Great inventory. Very quick shipping. Exceptional customer service.

Since the first time I started using 1001 modelkits I've been very impressed with the service I've had, and the quality of the items I've ordered, their prompt with deliveries and have always kept me apprised on orders, all in all I can't fault them. Keith Lincolnshire.

Products sent quickly and well packaged. Glad they used USP to send rather than another courier.

Only use Paypal or Credit Card!!!! Wish I had seen reviews before puchase Ordered two items (value approx. 2x £100, Total £200) during Covid -19 (I totally appreciated the order was likely to be delayed). I paid extra for quicker shipping (with everything going on I honestly expected it to be delivered within 7-14 days). All items on the website said "instock" at time of order or I wouldn't have ordered them. A month later I had no sign of the order and it still said processing on their website. I emailed 1001 on 3 occasions to get an ETA for the order, I was eventually told the second item was "out of stock" (I beleive it was still being displayed as ""in stock"" on their website at that time...), I gave them the opportunity to provide two of the first item instead. That suggestion was ignored and I after I kept pushing they started a new thread to tell me again that the "2nd item was out of stock". Communication was next to useless, single response to each email thread followed by ghosting after that every time. I gave up and raised a PayPal claim. I warned them after making the claim and suggested the alternative again which they also ignored. I would not recommend and I can't stress enough to make sure you can claim if they don't deliver (only buy with PayPal or Creditcard). I'll give them the benefit of the doubt but it does smell dodgy.

During a period of Furlough I ordered a Vulcan model and full set of paints (29th May 2020) after seeing all items were available to order I waited until 18th June before querying where my order was. I got numerous responses saying ""Due to an error from one of our suppliers we are still waiting for the product"". They said it would be sent in 5 days. This didn't happen so I agreed a refund on 23rd June. I understand the impact of Covid19 but the e-mail clearly stated the refund would be completed within 14 business days. It is now 19 business days and despite sending another e-mail request for an explanation of when I would receive my refund (15th July) I have heard nothing and not been refunded. Availability poor and refund service even poorer.

If it were possible not to put a star on it, that would be fine. I ordered the Bismarck battleship on May 21st as a Father's Day gift, and I'm still waiting for it, maybe they'll give it to me already assembled? So zero total on deliveries and zero total for lack of communication I'm waiting for a sincere explanation accompanied by a ge

Perfectly perfect?

Quick and easy ordering. Not easy to track on the interface, but delivery times respected.

Fast service

I have received my orders on the promised dates and above all I have always been informed of their status thank you.

I was very upset when UPS sent me an email telling me my F-106 model had been delivered and UPS had not been seen on the street I live on. So I start a claim against UPS and the claim was denied because only the shipper can file a claim. On the third evening while I was working on the claim I received a phone call from someone 4 blocks away informing me that they had my shipment. It was addressed to me but had the wrong address on the package. This kind person researched my name and found my address and they were on the to deliver it. I checked the order and my mailing address was correct. Someone at the shippers end entered the wrong address. The model looks great but I will have to find a way to remove the decals and put the set I ordered on. I wish they produce the aircraft model without decals so customers then apply what they want on them.

First time using 1001 models and i was impressed with the vast range of models offered, the very competitive prices and the speedy delivery....5 days from ordering to being delivered. ...considering it came from France

Excellent service once again. Thank you.

Prompt delivery of my order to France with no problems. Perfect.

first search found and bought easily!!! hat

long wait but good product .

very happy with the sales service, delivery times, etc.

Slow in shipping which you can not follow. And if the product is not there after waiting many days they send you a voucher to buy in their store. Charging you again for the shipping and start again the circul.

A small delivery problem not attributable to 1001 maquettes was quickly resolved at no extra charge.

perfect compliant productsquick delivery

Fast delivery but I already have a problem with the battery power supply.

Very good communication, but unfortunately the box was damaged when I received the parcel (although the contents seem to be in good condition). I would also have appreciated it if delivery problems had been announced on the site (which advertised delivery in 48 hours) before the order was placed and not just afterwards in the

thank you for ordering

Perfect fast and professional

The model is not in cardboard but in paper, so I can't use it as I wanted. I'm very disappointed.

Everything conforms to delivery and deadline

Correction to a previous review... When I purchased the HMS Victory from Billing boats, one plank was missing. My successive requests to rectify this oversight were in vain... In fact, 1001 Maquettes Hobbies had made the necessary arrangements with the manufacturer, Billing Boats, who took some time to rectify the problem. Today I received the missing part. I would like to apologize to 1001 Maquettes for this initial negative opinion, which was undeserved and due to my excessive impatience. Billing took the time to react to 1001 Maquettes' intervention, and I can be sure that my next model will be purchased.

Fast deliverygood product. Recommended 100

The mould itself was good- the parts were of good quality and were an army green colour making it easier to paint after assembling. However it did not include decals. Also the instructions omitted certain parts and were difficult to understand.

Great service great products safe site

Good friendly staff very helpful
