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!

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!

Ordered and paid for on 18.1.2017. Delivery time max. 2 weeks. 3.2.17 Request where the goods are. No reply. Still no goods today and still no reply. Too bad I imagined it would be different. NEW: On 8.2.2017 I finally received a message: The product you ordered is not available. You will receive a voucher for the amount paid. I requested a refund to my credit card. I wonder if this will be done. Legally it should work that way because I never said that I would or want to buy more products from 1001 modellbau. I DON'T WANT TO EITHER. 16.2.2017 the payment was credited. I think that's supppper. Thank you and my recommendation. It started out badly but the company finally acted positively.

I recommend buying from eu. The products offered come from other sellers who have a real after-sales service. I bought a Radio commander tank for a birthday. I had it delivered to a relay point because I didn't want the recipient to receive the package. It arrived on time. I went to pick it up around 2:15 p.m. Back home around 3:15 p.m., I opened the package to see what I'd bought because it was my first time ordering from 1001 Maquettes. The product corresponded to the description. however, in the box i found 2 pieces: one 3 cm long and a caterpillar tooth. following this discovery, i decided to test the product so as not to be surprised when i gave the gift. The vehicle rolls at an angle towards the right. the screw that closes the battery door on the remote control is also missing. i contact after-sales service, where i'm asked about the condition of the packaging and whether i can take photos of the pieces. I call the after-sales service again because I haven't heard from them, and they tell me that their supplier doesn't want to pay for repairs and that the tank has rolled and been damaged by a stone (I tested the product on my 2nd-floor balcony). I'd like to point out that I don't want to pay for the repairs either, as the product is brand new and I received it just like that. The person tells me that he's contacting his supplier again and that he'll keep me informed. When I don't get a reply from him, I send him an e-mail with the law concerning mail-order sales. Within 10 minutes, I get a reply from him saying that he was in the process of replying. He asked me to return the product to their supplier for an exchange. On Monday I went to the post office and returned the parcel. On Thursday, having heard nothing, I contacted 1001 maquettes again, who told me that the product had been repaired and would be returned. I asked them to replace the product and was told that it was out of stock. I also told them not to let the package arrive at my house. The person on the other end of the line told me that he'd contact his supplier for a replacement lead time. On Friday, having heard nothing again, I called back and the person in charge of the file could not be reached, even though I had called him at a time agreed with him. I hung up and shortly afterwards I received an e-mail telling me that the parcel had been returned by the supplier. I called again to find out where the parcel was to be delivered. The person I spoke to told me that they were calling their supplier and that they would send me an e-mail to keep me informed. I asked for the contact details of the person in charge. I never received this e-mail and the package arrived at my home, received by the recipient of the gift who, on behalf of the sender, immediately understood what it was. The product came back to repair mmande is still missing. I sent an email to make a request. I asked for the person in charge and was told: he'll call you back, but I'm still waiting for his call. For me, a customer of a classic model store for 10 years, this will be the only time I'll call them. I ordered from them because my shopkeeper was on holiday. 1001 maquettes doesn't deserve a star. PS I'm still waiting for the screw and the reimbursement of expenses.

This is my first model. The delivery time is very long. And I'd rather do it twice than once. You have to order the paints after you've received the model.

Delivery The delivery time for just a few model paints was terrible. I could have built the whole model in the time I have waited for the correct paints and after three weeks one still has to be delivered. I am sure I'm not the only one who has waited more than three weeks for delivery which is not acceptable in today's market.

Last 12122016 day I placed an order that was charged to my account on 14122016 not receiving the product and not having information on the status of the order I made several calls in which I got an answering machine indicating to send an email which I did after three emails sent to which no one has responded the days 06012017 13012017 and 24012017 I find that to date 01022017 no one has contacted me to tell me the status of the order or responded to my request for a refund of the amount paid. It is clear that I will not buy from them again and that I will recommend that no one should buy from them.

I haven't received my order # 95808, bought on 1/14/2017 Ordered through PayPals on 1/14/2017. 1001 stated that it was shipped on 1/20/2017. I haven't as yet received my order. When contacting them on the 617.849.9224 phone number, the message after ringing about 10 times, is not in English, so this number is useless to me. The price of the order was $15 plus change. When I ordered this through their website, the price changed in front of me to $23 plus change. Very sneaky. I will NOT use this company again! When issuing a grievance through PayPal, 1001 states it has been shipped.
